Trailers are a huge part of E3, whether they are showing the very first footage from an anticipated game, debuting something completely new, or delivering a movie like CGI experience, trailers are a crucial way publishers sell their game to us. These are my personal picks for the best trailers of this year's E3.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#10: Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit debut trailer
Its Need For Speed. Its the return of Hot Pursuit. Its made by Criterion. Yeah, nuff' said.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#9: Halo: Reach Campaign trailer
It has space combat. Nuff' said.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#8: Portal 2 teaser trailer
The only reason this isn't higher, is because its simply a teaser trailer. It mainly shows what we already know about Portal, and not any of the new gameplay mechanics present in this sequel. But its still the first footage of Portal 2, and that's enough.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#7: Infamous 2 debut trailer
Love it or hate it, Cole's got a new look, a new voice, and new powers. He also has a new threat, all debuting in this new trailer.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#6: Metroid: Other M trailer
It may not show much of anything new, but its still Metroid, its still awesome, and the music is epic.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#5: Donkey Kong Country Returns debut trailer
Its Donkey Kong Country, its made by Retro Studios, the music is awesome, that sunset level looks beautiful, nuff' said.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#4: Kirby's Epic Yarn debut trailer
Its Kirby, and he's more adorable than ever. Boasting a completely unique visual style and gameplay, this trailer needs to show nothing more to be epic.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#3: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II "Betrayal" cinematic trailer
Lucasarts certainly seems to have taken a fond liking to releasing cinematic trailers, as their latest trailer for the sequel to 2008's smash hit is pure brutal dual-lightsaber wielding CGI beauty.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#2: Star Wars: The Old Republic "Hope" cinematic trailer
At last year's E3 we were treated to the awesome "Deceived" cinematic trailer for The Old Republic. Apparently because of the positive reaction to that trailer, they decided to go ahead and make another one. This time showing just how tough a Republic soldier can be, and a Jedi that looks very similar to a certain Knights of The Old Republic character.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#1: The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword debut trailer
Is this really surprising? This is the trailer we were all waiting for. Does anything else really need to be said? Its Zelda, its awesome.
