Desperados III - John Cooper Trailer

The first thing that really strikes a viewer of this trailer is the amazing use of verticality in this game. It gives a real feel of full exploration and adds so many opportunities for different approaches to each attack. The graphics are smooth, and the precise details really tie everything together. One of the best moments in the trailer is when the lyrics of the music sing “I’m gonna rock you,” just as John Cooper is rolling boulders off of cliffs in an offensive onslaught.
