Best launch trailer this gen

Ive seen plenty of launch trailers this gen that were stellar to make a selct few list. for me it is a toss up between Metal Gear Solid 4 and Mass Effect 2. What about you?

i dont remember too many but the ones that come to mind are

uncharted 2

gears of war

swtor

bioshock infinite (this trailer made me get a copy of the first 2 bioshocks)

I remember getting a raging boner from this:

Probably are better ones, but I remember this one fondly.

The Witcher 2 easily had the best trailers.

SC2 launch trailer was pretty epic

Mass Effect 2 or Mass Effect 3, take your pick.

Diablo 3

wait... nah.

I don't know, I don't pay attention to trailers.

I really enjoyed the trailer for AC2 where he's walking through a crowd and takes down his target with the hidden gun.

Dead Island I assume?

Was that one a launch trailer though?

The Dead Island hype trailer was by far the best I've seen to date but certainly wasn't anything to do with the game launch or the game play.

On launch trailers, I've no idea really, I like the Xcom one :)

I don't think it was. :(

Forever and always. Honorabe mention to MW2's infamy trailer. Another honorable mention to Mass Effect 2.

Prefered the Disdain and Fear trailer but the Witcher 2 trailers in general were very well done.

Agreed. I think I need to go back and play it again. Will probably do it after Dishonored.

No Hope Left - Resident Evil 6

I can think of a few others, but I can't find the trailers anywhere.

Human Revolution.

Halo 3 - Believe I don't think this can be considered a launch trailer. Honestly, I didn't even end up playing this game. lol I'm a huge Halo 1 fan and that's it. Anyways, I loved the incredible art with the action figures and such. The music in the trailer was so good that I actually learned it on piano. At the end up the trailer when it shows Master Chief's lifeless looking body held up by the Brute (or whatever it is) and you see that MC has a grenade in his hand...then the closeup on his helmet as his head raises...it gave me chills.

My favorite is the Gears of War trailer, it was just about perfect.
