If you watch it on release day it crashes at the climax of the episode and you have to watch it again from the beginning.

I don't know much about the game. But this is basically the Westworld crew. So I have high hopes. At least for the first season. Heh.

I can't count how many times I had to reload the end of Fallout 3 because it kept crashing. Even with saving every few minutes, I think the last 40 minutes of the game took me several hours.

I don't like watching trailers on Twitter:





The keywords being that ALL episodes drop on the 11th!

Looks really cool and appears to have movie production quality. Surprised that Amazon is making it a binge series.

On the downside, since this is from the Nolans and if it draws enough buzz to get a second season, we may not get one for 2 to 3 years. Kind of how slow they put out Westworld.

Looks good. I've never played the game, but the trailer makes me want to watch the series.

The games are the most fun I have ever had playing video games. I love them.

I simply can't wait for this.

I may be a hypocrite here but I would rather not have this series all drop at once. I will not have the willpower to not to binge them all at once. Work be damned

Same with me. I didn't even bother to read anything about the games, but seeing this trailer, I am intrigued. I'll give it a watch.

Trailer sold me, brought back memories of the hundreds of hours I spent playing Fallout 3

Agreed. It looks a lot better than I expected. I'm excited to watch this one.

Looks awesome. I love the games I have played and while I usually wait months and sometimes years to get around to watching various series no matter how popular, I won't wait on this one.\

They nailed the look. If they even have half as good of the writing and humor of the game series, this will be great.

The Halo series nailed the look, but the story is a giant bore. Hopefully Fallout won't have the same fate.

Based in the trailer, I do worry that the girl will be frustratingly naive when she emerges from the vault for the first time. I hope she doesn’t spend the first part of the series acting like a complete moron.

I just realized I will be on vacation when this comes on...UGH!!!!

I won't be able to see any of it until at least a week after it debuts.
