Top 5 Trailers of This Generation

Loot Ninja writes:

"Who doesn’t love a high quality trailer? Getting hyped up for a game based on a killer video has a special place in all gamers’ hearts. In the course of this console generation, there have been some terrific trailers and those that just sucked ass. Who cares about the latter — we want to show you our top 5 trailers of this generation. We spent a good deal of time whittling down the list to those that we really loved — ones that we watched over and over both before a game’s release and after. What are you waiting for? Get watching"

The DC Universe online was pretty good too...

Agreed, however we considered that really a cinematic instead of a trailer (if that's the one you're referring to?)

Yi-Long4865d ago

... the trailer for the first Assassin's Creed was amazing (music: Lonely Soul)

Raendom4865d ago

Resistance 3 was my fave.

Charmers4865d ago

I can't believe they missed out the Mass Effect 2 launch trailer :-

That is one of the best launch trailers I have ever seen.

drunkpandas4865d ago

That was definitely on our list of "maybes", but didn't make the cut.

The Meerkat4865d ago

That trailer gives me goose bumps.

I even have the music from it as my alarm clock in the morning.

Just thinking, Did MGS4 have any decent trailers? I remember how awesome MGS2's ones were but MGS4's ones I can't remember. Must go and do research.

drunkpandas4865d ago (Edited 4865d ago )

We looked into MGS4 trailers, but most of them were more along the lines of demos and cutscenes. We tried to stay with traditional trailers. If we expanded it to demos and custscenes, the Raiden trailer from MGS4 where he fights Vamp would have definitely made the list.

Ducky4865d ago (Edited 4865d ago )

The MGS4 cinematic (story) trailer was... cool.

Or well, I thought it was cool... I watched it again and it was so cheesy for some reason.
I don't know if there's anyone out there besides Kojima who can take a plot such as MGS (which is laughable on paper) and turn it into such a serious and well-directed way that you don't even notice the oddities.

No DeusEx or AssAssins Creed though? =(

EDIT: Here's the MGS4 one I was talking about. =/
Not as cool as the watermelon-ending trailer.

drunkpandas4865d ago

Deux Ex wasn't considered for being last gen (other than the new one, which, while good, wasn't a finalist for consideration).

Both AC and AC2 were considering, but ultimately didn't make the Top 5.

OllieBoy4865d ago

The recent Killzone 3 Story Trailer is one of the best I've ever seen.
