At this point I'm going to Ladbrokes and betting against everything Kotaku promotes. They are like Jim Cramer of the gaming industry.

All they would probably need to do is replace the main cast with digital game characters, or at least something that's rendered so they at least blend in a lot better.

It almost seems like the Sonic movie thing, where they first released a trailer that was so awful they had to change Sonic to look much better. I'm still not sure if it was a very expensive marketing move or not.

Based on the quality of the rest of it, I'm leaning it's not a marketing move lol
