This is a larger conversation with regards to "What is a game?" etc. Are "Choose your own adventure" books games? Are "Choose your own adventure" DVDs games? Is "Dragon's Lair" a game? Typing games? Railroad shooters? Railroad typing shooters? Where exactly is the line?

But we're not even talking about games specifically in this case. This wasn't a game. This was a game TRAILER. The amount of times these have been interactive is very, very small, so they made it look as visually appealing as possible, in a manner which is very, very common. There's only so much gameplay which pushes a world and a "feeling" of a game to players. Usually this is in the form of explosions. I don't see where the problem here is.
