They don't need to show gameplay footage...they want to build the hype at at a gradual pace until GTA fever takes over, which it is about to happen. The 10 million people that are going to buy this game won't get hyped by hearing "yo man, did you see that new gameplay footage?" they'll get hyped by hearing "yo man, check out that new GTA trailer".

And this game WILL be a monster. A next gen city to go all GTA on. From the sounds of it, the 'next gen' part extends far beyond visuals...gameplay, animation, destructibility, realism, physics, everything. I'm hyped...
