Best Video Game Trailers?

Posted by Cliff on from the high-wow-factor dept.

An anonymous reader asks: "I was doing my usual site browsing, and I stumbled onto this thread about the best game trailers at PCSynapse.com. It made me really think about how important it is for a company to make a good, early impression on potential videogame buyers, and give people something to anticipate. What do you say your favorite non-interactive game trailers of all time are?"

    but being the UT junkie that I am I prefer the Unreal Tournament movies made by some of the best clans and players on the face of the planet. Good Stuff Here
