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?"

    I remember distinctly saying "Holy shit!" on both of these. All hail Blizzard.

  2. Wing Commander III and IV by PeteyG · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The non-interactive movie-style trailers to the best interactive movie / flying games ever. Wing Commander III and IV.

    Mark Hamill. John Rhys Davies. Malcolm Mcdowell. Space fighters. Great special effects. Cheesy writing made cool and memorable by quality actors. These trailers are the best things ever.

    Oh, did I mention that you can download them?!

    If you don't download them, just look at the pretty pictures on the page there. Quality stuff.
