'''1:59 - Lars Bakken: '''You're first person; if you click the right stick, it shows you what that person was looking at from third person.

'''2:44 - Luke Timmins: '''Every time that someone rewinds in a saved film, I hold my breath, because there's like... it's like God reaching in and being like, "Make magic happen," and then it magically just keeps working. Like, the complexity of that system is so insane.

'''3:35 - Lars Bakken:''' When you're in flying camera if you hold in the left trigger you can actually fly around the map faster, and then the right trigger is your speed control.

'''4:22 - [[Petar Kotevski]]: '''It's just crazy how much a map will change with just a small variation of either weapon placement or just where the flag spawns in [[Capture the Flag|CTF]]. If you don't like it there move it one meter to the right.
