Are there any spoilers in it ?
Yup, very old... but still kinda cool to watch.
Not worth the 60 megs if you have a slow connection... but I got it in like 2 minutes, so why not download it for the heck of it. It's pretty neat.
Like dougy said though, nothing new at all.

That is awesome! I just now watched it...I think the way it is, it makes it look like movie footage, with the music and all...

They showed the credits at the end. Skip to the very end, and you'll see it.

I didn't like the trailer..but not because it's all old footage.
I'll give you the play-by-play:
Opening - How they used the "Incoming message" thingy and brought the sound from the menu of HL1 was cool. G-Man's voice was too weird.
1st song & footage - Uhh...this is all boring footage. The music makes me feel like I'm about to play Fable or something. The music is very out of place. It just cuts off as Alyx says her line.
2nd song & footage - Music changed too much. Like 20 seconds of this hard song...the whole section seems out of place...
3rd song & footage - This terribly epic music cuts in for the footage frommore e3 footage that just isn't epic. This trailer is feeling too long already and I'm 3 min in. The music starts matching with some of the scenes they show...some are cool (the striders)...but some are just put there just so it can match (car explosion - ant lion attacks buggy hitting the crate - big alien leader thingy attacking gordon..)
4th song - Credits section. Kinda funny and weird...
Things that could've made this much better:
-Actual in-game audio involved in some way - We only get to hear a few voice parts and music
-Better choice of music - The Fable-like stuff wasn't a good choice - the 20 second rock section was completely out of place and the majority of the trailer that showed action was that epic-sounding stuff being played when there's hardly anything epic about it.
-Less music-footage matches - A few are ok, but they just tried to hard and used lame events and a few little clips fade in and out in less than a second.
-I just didn't like the whole fading in and out thing. No continuity - just random clips like 1 second or 2 seconds long at some times. Striders got all the attention, coming in second would be the dropship.
Still...they made a sub-par (imo) trailer with the binks which would be hard to do.
