One guy seems to have his shit somewhat together, the other is clueless.

"a lot of great iconography from the first, well.....Fallout 3"

Yes - there was a first Fallout 3, my friend, or were you about to make a Freudian slip?

"he's maybe sorting through some garbage or maybe burying a body, we're not really sure what he's doing"

- he's sifting through junk, retard. Look at the stuff he's picking up, then discarding because it's not worth anything....but who's determining it's worth?

"Yeah, the Stratosphere actually exists."

- Seriously? I thought it was one of those Bigfoot/Loch Ness Monster - type things.

---The only time they start making any solid sense to me is after the NCR flag shows up, or perhaps just before when they freeze on the Vegas skyline. I'm ... hesitant ... about throwing my support for F:NV until I see much, much more - we all know the hype and subsequent disappointment when the F3 screenshots started pouring in. Anyone can make a decent trailer.

The reviewers either were forced to do this at the last minute, or ... well, you decide.

The pathetic part was when the one guy started talking about "the California flag" like he had no idea that the NCR existed. Luckily the other guy saved him.

Anyone got the trailer version "Blue Moon"?

It's the Frank Sinatra version if that helps.
