Most of these trailers do nothing for me. I need gameplay for a game trailer. I need cinema for a movie trailer.


What about the Vanquish and Bayonetta trailer on the OP?

Metal Gear Solid 2 Sons of Liberty - Trailer - ECTS 2000 - PS2

This trailer I have posted has Can't Say Good Bye to Yesterday by Rika Muranaka as an insert song, but the one that is included in The Making of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty DVD ROM that accompanied the PAL release of the game doesn't have this modification, maybe someone who attended the event can say what is the one they exhibited.
Also a brilliant trailer. I wasn't at the ECTS, but I can say that as far as I know this has always included the Rika Muranaka song.

Halo 3 Debut Trailer - Not the best looking, or CG, or anything, but Marty's score gives me goosebumps every time I watch it.

Gears of War Mad World Trailer - I'm not huge into Gears by any means, but this is a fantastic trailer.

Bioshock Trailer - I love the initial trailer for Bioshock. Sets the mood of the game fantastically.

Those are off the top of my head. Rockstar always makes great trailers too.

I find it interesting how many of the trailers posted in this thread are ones that feature next to no gameplay, and focus on cinematics and and almost feel like movie trailers.

What about this one? I admired this one for its choreography.
Oh yeah, I said most. Uncharted 3, Assassins Creed, Mass Effect, Dead Space, Red Dead Redemption, even Starcraft 2 for some reason. Skyrim did it too, but it went for a kind of mythological angle, which I thought was neat.
I can't figure out if its saying something about us and how what hypes us up for a game more closely resembles a movie experience, or if it says something more about the current industry where the majority of AAA trailers fit into this mold.

I'm still feeling the Dead Island announcement trailer though... It was so wrong... I've read that quite a few people cried watching it whilst others found it made their stomach's sick. *sigh... Disappointed that the developer's second trailer and main game doesn't appear to stick to that sense of "destruction of innocence" that the announcement trailer protrayed.
