Game Trailers

[Softballchic10]

I think game trailer can really be a big selling point to a game. Be it one that gets your pulse pounding or tugs at your heart strings if they can reach your emotions on any level it can raise a gamers interest level enough perhaps to be willing to put the money down for that game that just looks amazing. Aside from that, they can be just a lot of fun.

I'm relatively new in the grand scheme of things when it comes to video games but I enjoy them very much obviously. I just thought it would be fun to share your favorite game trailer or trailers that either helped sell you on getting a copy or you just thought were great.

For me, the trailer for Dragon Age: Origins comes to mind. It's very cinematic and the music is amazing. The music actually inspired me to buy the band's whole CD which I enjoy. Here is the trailer!

Another for me would be the terrifying game of Dead Space. The innocence of a nursery rhyme is totally at odds with the horrors that the game brings. It's chilling. Enjoy!

I'll see your "Dragon Age" and "Dead Space" trailers and raise you one "Dead Island" Announcement Trailer. Made me cry the first time I saw it, and still catches in my throat watching it months later:

And just because I loved it, here's the trailer for "The Thing" on PC, Xbox and PS2 released in 2002 as a sequel to John Carpenter's film of the same name. Darker than I remember it being, so crank up the contrast a bit, and enjoy. Very effective.

Watching these trailers has put me in the Halloween spirit, I'll have to get around to choosing a suitably chilling game to play over Halloween.

That Dragon Age: Origins trailer is truly epic, must check it out sometime

Really like the Dead Island trailer too, it's clever and the music is really beautiful

The trailers for Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim are quite epic. They really make you want to immerse yourself into those games.

I agree 100%

I´m a sucker for trailers that use liveaction footage of their main characters, if nothing else because it lets you see your favorite characters faithfully recreated in the flesh, something most movie adaptations fail to accomplish, and it doesn´t hurt if those characters featured are of the female variety.
