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?"

    The trailer for the remixed game "Metal Gear Substance" was awesome. It had all these words that kept morphing together: Subliminal, Subvert, Subordinate, Subsist... until finaly morphing into "Substance".

    Nevermind the incredible "WTF" scenes like Snake on a skateboard, Meryll alive and the giant soldiers.

    And the tagline: The fall, Metal Gear sheds its skin and reveals its SUBSTANCE.

  2. not exactly a trailer but... by Skier4Life · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The Half-Life 2 preview movies. They may not be actual trailers but they sure are cool and make me want to buy the game.
