Fallout 3 Teaser Trailer Responses

Both 1Up and GameDaily are offering up some feedback about Bethesda's newly released teaser trailer for Fallout 3. The newsitem at 1Up actually features commentary from multiple editors:
Shawn Elliott: Good God, this looks good. Voice what you will about Bethesda not having the knack for ink-black humor it needs to hammer out a true-to-the-series sequel, but think it through first. In my mind, Oblivion more than proved the developer's ability there, what with Cyrodiil's neurotic citizens. Remember Mr. They're-watching-me-and-I-know-it? Or the pair of schemers who wanted the same loot, and who wise adventurers played one against the other? I want to think that Bethesda has what it takes, only the developer's humor isn't bopping you in the face. And again, how often has that happened in gameland? Maybe it's because I read comic books, but changed up creative teams aren't always alarming. In fact, if Bethesda decides to take a radically different direction with Fallout 3, I'd rather that than a dull remake.

Jeff Green: Yeah, this looks hot. I'm palpitating here. Okay, so it's just the trailer, and that has no bearings on whether they'll actually make a good game or not. But they nailed the tone here, dead on. Even the choice of that Ink Spots song ("set the world on fire"--get it??) was right on, especially considering that they could have gone with, um, Fall Out Boy, just to pick the worst possible alternative. And put me on the list with you two wanting a radically different direction--like first-person perspective. I loved the first two Fallouts to death, but now is not the time for another isometric turn-based RPG. Not with the amazing possibilities that Bethesda could bring to this series after knocking it out of the park with Oblivion. I can't wait.

I really hope Bethesda isn't listening to some of these people.
