Exactly the point.

For those who haven't downloaded it yet (WHO ? hehehe), you can found it at
http://trailer.starwars.com/  Download the 15meg QuickTime 3.0  MPEG trailer
and realise the difference.  Im not bashing Papyrus here, but just telling
them there is a way to encode and compress a movie to make incredible
results at a low cost.

Don't take this as a flame, in fact it's more as a help, because the last
thing I want is the general market to download and view the video and say
"It looks like Nascar Revolution".  Ouch ;(    .  Well maybe that's in fact
what they are researching ;-)

Personally, I'll be happy when we have at least a 1-track demo to play
with :)

It could be that we saw all of the game that has been written so far :)

Seriously, you're right :)
