Line 2:
* Generally speaking, many developers like to take a screenshot of the game that was generated over the course of several minutes by a supercomputer and imply that it will look just as good at home with a smooth frame-rate. Such screenshots have been dubbed [[Portmanteau|Bullshots]] by [[Penny Arcade]].
* The new trailer for [[
* In [[Dragon Age]] II's "Destiny" trailer Hawke gets [[Red Eyes, Take Warning|red eyes]] before kicking the Arishock's ass. Hawke never gets red eyes at any point in the game. The trailer also made it look like the Qunari would be the main antagonists.
* [[World of Warcraft]] has had a few, mostly due to content being cut at the last minute.
Line 39:
** Please see [[Descending Ceiling]] for another fan-made pack that includes this in its entirety (''with spikes'').
* ''[[Time Hollow]]'' on the DS' trailer culminates with one of the main characters falling seemingly to her death, only for the main character to dramatically grab her hand mid-air, still falling. In-game the scene is never used, and while the girl does fall, all the main character does is reach out through a portal while time is stopped and pull her through.
* Nintendo's ads for ''[[
* The opening trailer for ''Oneechanbara Vortex'' shows clips from the game, including a rather cool scene of Aya saving Saki from an attacker by running into him with a motorcycle. Except that in the actual game, it's not returning [[Token Mini-Moe]] and Heel Face Turned ex-[[Big Bad]] Saki, but newcomer Anna who is saved in this manner.
* Patrial example: the trailers and opening for ''[[Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World]]'' has Emil, Marta, Alice, and Decus all fighting, hanging around, and doing innocuous things like the main characters from the first game did in their opening, and generally giving you the false impression that the latter two are (or at some point would become) allies instead part of the game's [[Terrible Trio]]. Weirdly, they're also treated the same way in ''the closing animated'' even after {{spoiler|they both died fighting Emil and Marta}}.
