Was this the best game reveal trailer ever? (CP 2077 reveal in 2013)

The original CGI reveal that shows just one scene from the game, going for quality over quantity, is still impressive 7 years later. I prefer it to any subsequent trailer or gameplay video because it doesn't spoil anything. It's just a quick immersion into the world leaving most of it up to your imagination. Great use of super slowmo and great soundtrack:




PS: 23 days to go (22 for some of us if they go for a Central European midnight global unlock) I spoke too soon :)

    It was awesome!

    Remember the parody later on (2018)?

    Personally the only modern MMORPG trend that annoys me is the idea that MMOs need to be designed in a way to attract people who don't actually like MMOs. Which to me makes about as much sense as someone trying to figure out a way to get vegetarians to eat at their steakhouse.

    Great!   But.... considering no game footage.  All time has to go to Halo 3

    Clay static set, panned around by a single piano music...



    Who hasn't seen it?  And then the spin off commercials?  Just testimonials of veterans decades later.

    Egotism is the anesthetic that dullens the pain of stupidity, this is why when I try to beat my head against the stupidity of other people, I only hurt myself.

    Yes. I forgot how fitting that was, lyrically :)

    This is a really interesting thread!

    I basically don't care about reveal trailers, they don't influence me at all. Couldn't even think of a single trailer when I read the OP, not a single one came to mind. The sorts of games I'm interested in just don't make for good trailers.

    The elder scrolls cinematics are awesome.

    The starcraft 2 ones are amazing too. Look up heart of the swarm cinematic if someone could link it. It is amazing.
