Video: The FIFA 15 honest trailer is a thing and it’s wonderful

Wonderful for everyone apart from Franck Ribery and his “snaggle-tooth butt face”.

Wonderful for everyone apart from Franck Ribery and his “snaggle-tooth butt face”.

Honest trailers about major Hollywood movies have been doing the rounds for some time now and more often than not, they pretty much nail aspects of said movies that the filmmakers would rather that audiences didn’t notice at all.

We didn’t think it could be as easily applied to video games, but that was until we heard the honest trailer for one of the biggest video games of all and our heads were turned.

Sure, it should be pointed out that this is a very American take on a game that’s probably far more popular on this side of the world than it is Stateside.

That said, have a listen to “from the company that’s tricked you into buying the exact same game every year for the last quarter of a century” and other lines and you’ll understand how we were so impressed.

Class.
