It's Noisy On Mars - New Mars: War Logs Trailer

Which is a bit silly of them, because it's looking rather interesting.

It's obviously even sillier since Spiders Studio's narrating CEO, Jehanne Rousseau, has such an epic-awesome accent, making it even harder to pick out what's being described. But fortunately you can feel that strange twinge of guilt and switch on the YouTube subtitles.
