Title says it all. In the past, games sometimes relied on CGI cutscenes, but now, they're replaced with in game cut scenes. For me, I think that Halo Wars has some absolutely amazing CGI scenes in the trailers. And while it is beating a dead horse a little, Killzone 2's announcement trailer looked great. How about you?

KZ2 Intro Cinimatic is epic, mainly due to brian cox's voice acting as Vissari and also with how great the CGI is

Agreed with Blizzard. I remember the first time i saw the CGI intro for starcraft and just thinking, "wow... just make a movie like this please" Truely amazing stuff.

Final fantasy X and Dead or alive 4 (endings) is still the best CG in gaming. Heck even the CG intro for dead or alive ultimate is breathtaking.

I'll have to agree with the general consensus and say anything made by Blizzard or Square Enix.

Some of their games are worth playing just for the cut scenes. The most praise-worthy being Final Fantasy X in my opinion.

Any Blizzard game.

Also Blur Studios do alot of CGI for games, like Dawn of War, Company of Heroes, Tomb Raider Underworld, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Hellgate London and if iam not mistake Halo Wars, they did the trailer at least.

Click the "Animation" link under reels on their site shows alot of stuff they've done.

Very good CGI, even if some of the games weren't.

One line = "They will know, that Helghan belongs to the Helghast" that gets me pumped up everytime :D

MGS 4 without a doubt. Come on, is this a real question?

Ah, I read the topic wrong. I'd have to say Square or Blizzard.
