New reports of the original 'Game of Thrones' pilot highlight a number of major story changes, as well as a majorly different title credits sequence than the current, iconic version, so check out the 'Game of Thrones' that almost was inside!

By this time last year, the second season already had a variety of teasers and trailers to whet everyone's appetites, which makes the lack of anything for the new season all the more frustrating. But there is light at the end of the tunnel: we now know when a trailer will be arriving!
