I'm apparently weird for liking to actually download them so I can view them at the best quality possible, but it's what I like to do. Back when Apple let you download their trailers, I did the same thing with movies.

Gamersyde is good, but it's also limited. I tried downloading the PSX Uncharted 4 trailer, but they don't host it on servers anymore. No way for me to get it. I know I can watch nearly the same quality on streaming sites, but still...maybe someone knows where else you can get them?

I just installed an extension for Chrome that lets me download Youtube videos. I don't remember which one though.

Don't the bittorrent seeds of gamersyde vids live on even if they're off the direct download servers?

You would think so, but if they do, they're no longer offering the link to the torrent.

I'm curious too, as Gamersyde is the key source I use for high quality video. Youtube is too much of a crapshoot.

They're still terrible quality though. OP is asking for Gamersyde-level bitrates.

If I can't find it on GSyde, then I usually look on PlayerAttack

It's not well explained (sorry about that), but if you log in you can download about any video from the past 10 years, except for the few months we lost last year in a RAID crash.
That UC4 video definitely is there.

I see, thank you!

Can you explain why the torrent link is gone though? That would be much easier than a direct download, I would think.

The seeding program I use chokes after a thousand torrents being seeded or so, so I have to clean up and restart it after few months. And since 99% of the torrents are dead if we don't seed it ourself, I don't really want to leave a torrent file available and have people never get their video.

Ahh right, I wasn't even considering bitrates.

I download all my trailers from Youtube using JDownloader 2

Youtube is awful. Good for a quick fix, but not something you want to use if you want to pore over a trailer. It definitely doesn't meet the standard of "high quality".

Youtube quality is good at 1440p and 4k res at least...but for 1080p and lower it fails in that area.

I see. Well, thank you for the replies. They were very helpful

You can actually upscale a 1080p video to 4K as it allows you to upload that video in a higher bit-rate to Youtube. It will still look the same on a 1080p monitor, just higher quality than a native 1080p upload.
