Think Big!

Seeing as we're obviously not gonna get anymore Dev. Diaries, I wondered if Ubisoft, who haven't really marketed this thing as well as it deserves, would be so kind as to put together a hi-res full trailer/preview? We've had the teaser trailer (so many moons ago), we've had a few grainy low-res clips, now it's time for the full-trailer (like the film industry). It should only take someone about a day to do, but if they've got talent, it'll be awesome! You know? Something that shows off the new graphics and features. They should really do a couple of TV spots (like Call of Duty) if they really wanna sell this thing to a wider audience and make some real money.

Besides that i has being marketed on Internet gaming and simulation websites and Computer games magazines, remember that this is not an arcade game meaning it is just for a selected group within the shrinking PC gaming community if you compare it with console games such as PS3, XBOX, etc...

Think Big! The dev's expressed a desire for SH4 to appeal to a wider market. A very small percentage of the market i.e: practically everyone who doesn't visit the specialst websites like subsim.com, even knows about the imminent release of possibly the finest sim ever created and that's a damn shame. I'm just saying you've gotta speculate to accumulate and Ubisft should shell out a few Euros on Marketing. The production of computer games/sims is becoming as large as the production of films and should be marketed as such. If you wanna make back the cost of production plus enough to act as an incentive to make a sequel that is. Which is what I wanna see.
