Trivia

To promote the game, EA Games released a bevy of trailers, but three in particular spoofed three other gaming franchises.

One entitled "Rainbow Sprinkles" was spoofing the Tom Clancy Rainbow Six series. In it, Sgt. Redford and Preston Marlowe are about to take an enemy stronghold through stealth tactics when Sweetwater and Haggard are heard discussing rainbow sprinkles on donuts. Redford tells them they are on a stealth mission and to breach a door in the distance, but instead of doing it quietly Haggard throws a grenade and then he and Sweetwater walk out into the open, blasting away at anything that moves.

"Bad World" spoofs the Gears of War Mad World trailer. In it, Sweetwater can be heard singing the song as Haggard runs through a bombed out street, almost in similar fashion to the Mad World trailer. Just before the end of the song, Haggard stops and turns to see Sweetwater telling him repeatedly to shut up and comments that he doesn't understand that last part of the song.

And last "Snake Eyes" spoofs the Metal Gear series. In it, Sweetwater is seen aiming his weapon at a barrel with the rest of the squad asking him what the problem is. He proceeds to tell them that he saw a man with a eye patch (presumably Solid Snake) in the drum barrel. The squad seems to brush it off just as the barrel moves with the trademark "!" appearing overhead. At this point Haggard grabs a grenade launcher and fires at the barrel launching the occupant (off camera) through the air. Afterwards Haggard finds an eye patch on the ground.

The Bad World trailer can be seen here, The Snake Eyes trailer here and the Rainbow Sprinkles trailer here.
