(-finish, let's call it done; divhiding that massive 1998 trailer post, and since the divhide box needed a title, I credited the famous Bungie fan who wrote it; added para. about trailer's immediate takedown) |
(writing a small lede, taking away the TOC which doesn't really add anything) |

There have been two trailers for [[Oni]]: the unofficial, "banned" 1998 trailer and the official, polished 1999 trailer, with which more fans are familiar. | |||

At the time this trailer was made, Oni had only been in development for a year. There was probably no actual gameplay footage that the team felt was decent enough, so this CG trailer was produced by the two main artists for the game, Alex Okita and Chris Hughes, as well as Steve Abeyta. Abeyta revealed in an {{OCF}} thread that "[i]t was my first try at animating since I was hired on as an environment artist." His skills would improve amazingly by the time Oni was released. | At the time this trailer was made, Oni had only been in development for a year.
