Xbox says none of its first-party Showcase trailers will be ‘full CG’
None of the first-party trailers shown during next weekend’s Xbox Games Showcase will consist entirely of CG footage, it’s claimed.
After tweeting on Sunday that there was seven days to go until the Showcase, Xbox VP of games marketing Aaron Greenberg was asked by a follower if the showcase would feature gameplay for announced titles and CG trailers for unannounced titles.
“None of our first-party games in the show are full CG trailers,” Greenberg replied. “Everything is either in-game footage, in-engine footage, or in-game footage with some cinematics. Each of our trailers will be labeled so it is hopefully clear for our fans.”
It’s not clear if Greenberg’s comment was in reference to the recent PlayStation Showcase, which opened with an entirely CG trailer for upcoming PlayStation Studios title Fairgame$.
Greenberg also told another follower that “there will be no movie trailers in our games show”, a possible reference to the Gran Turismo trailer which was shown during the PlayStation Showcase.
