Battlefield from DICE.... zero CGI all game.
WoW has that Kung Fu panda on every commercial, that represent nothing from the game...
hopes this helps. |

I can't think of a single one lol. As cool as they are, I fully accept that the purpose of a CGI trailer is to build hype not showcase gameplay. That's just me anyways.
Enter a whole new realm of challenge and adventure. |

The doctors say his chances are 50/50...but there's only a 10% chance of that. |

I was going to mention my favorite EVE trailer with its stellar (see what I did there?) graphics, but then I remembered it was all actual game footage, and not CGI :)

I'd much rather have ingame footage in a trailer. CGI shows me nothing of how a game will be. I don't know of any mmo that has used CGI in a trailer and had it look that way ingame.
What happens when you log off your characters????..... |

The human and the orc are random and don't specifically have anything to do with the game. and no your comments don't help |

The king and the pawn go back to the same box at the end of the day. |

I don't think there is any game trailers that use CGI that represent the game all that well. Its kinda the point, its not designed to demonstrate game play but rather lore or key components that you will find in the game.

Should they accurately represent the game? Afterall, either it a) is an ad b) sets the mood c) tells a story.

I agree with stimz. The war trailer. It looked good and you could do those things in game. E.g. the squig header riding in the giant squig.

Originally posted by Quirhid Exactly. CGI trailers aren't designed to represent the game. They are designed to give the setting, mood and context of the game. Do they represent the graphics of the game? No. Do they represent the actual gameplay? No. Should they represent the IP and get people thinking of what they'd like to do in the game? Yes. Some do that better than others.
filmoret: One thing I have never figured out is why the game devs hardly ever fix simple problems that arise. It is like they don't care about the pvp community. Nitth: What makes you so sure its a simple fix? filmoret: Because most of them are. Sometimes its just changing a number in a code string other times its creating a few variables. However none of them should take over a few hours of coding. |

None. I really hate the CGI trailers/.More companies should stick to in-game stuff for there trailers.

The only ones that I even remember well enough to comment on are the Wow BC and WAR ones. The others obviously didn't make an impression or I'd remember them. CGI trailers are just meant to be neat little hype inducing mini-movies. Never expect more than that from a CGI clip. |

I saw the Starcraft 2 "Heart of the Swarm" trailer. Pretty dog gone close.

In all honesty, nothing comes to mind. Maybe Diablo II with the CGI storyline being used as the trailer. All of my posts are either intelligent, thought provoking, funny, satirical, sarcastic or intentionally disrespectful. Take your pick. |

I think that EvE (with exception of in-station action) represents the game quite accurately

You guys should provide some links, I'm too lazy to youtube these trailers.
I've never seen a trailer and gotten the same experience in-game unless it was a scripted encounter. I played WoW up until WotLK and now play Runes of Magic. |

Great idea. I think movie studios should follow this trend. Show fantastic cut scenes which look nothing like the actual movie, itself. Playing: Rome Total War, Master of Orion II, Majesty 2, and Telengard. |
