Dear Game Publishers/Developers: they're "Announcement" trailers, NOT "Announce" trailers


Recommended Posts

This has been festering inside of me for a little while now, but today's Inside Xbox debacle was the final straw!

 

For the love of all that is holy and unholy, please stop using the word "announce" for these trailers.  

 

They're not "Announce" trailers -- that doesn't make any bloody sense whatsoever as "announce" is a verb and acts very awkwardly as an "attributive verb" that modifies the noun "trailers" in the description.

 

These are "Announcement" trailers where the word "announcement" is acting as a "noun adjunct" or "attributive noun" that does a fine job of modifying the noun "trailers".

 

Please cease and desist with this practice immediately!

 

Regards,

D1P Imperator Augustus Maximus
