I was curious to know what everyone’s favourite game trailer is be it because of the cinematography or how hyped it made you for an upcoming release.
I thought I’d focus on a few oldies (15ish years) that people may be less familiar with or have forgotten.
Dead Island: I feel like this is one of the most famous gaming trailers, absolutely nothing to do with the game but stunning none the less - https://youtu.be/lZqrG1bdGtg?feature=shared
Halo Reach: A trailer that really drives home the scale and hopelessness that Reach was trying to achieve. If the TV show looked as good and felt as raw as this I doubt there would be as much backlash - https://youtu.be/18-_9E0HNY4?feature=shared
Assasins Creed Revelations: The culmination of both a trilogy and quadilogy of games, the trailer sets up for an epic conclusion - https://youtu.be/HMsbMK9Odoc?feature=shared
Fallout 3: This served as a completely new direction to the Fallout franchise and executed a masterful reveal - https://youtu.be/zPt08UYmyMo?feature=shared
It’s nigh tradition in the FF XIV community that we all eagerly await the Japanese Fan Festival as that’s when they reveal the full trailer for the next expansion and the last of the new classes they’re adding. Every single one since The End of an Era has absolutely SLAPPED.
