Most of these trailers are the ones that were shown at E3 - but they are all online in HD (and lower) quality if you want to view them to see what the next-gen consoles are 'supposedly' going to be capable of.

I know for a fact that several of these are blantantly pre-rendered - and if not pre-rendered, then they had a heavy dose of post-processing & compositing done to them in addition, but here they are for your viewing pleasure ;}

well, at the very worst they'll look very, very nice and entertain us for a few minutes, at the very best they will show us what next-gen consoles can do... thanks for the link!

i saw a tech demo for the PS3 yesturday and it wasnt that impresive, it looked like it could of been done for the PS2. mbae the xbox will be different!

DOH! my video card dosnt seem to be able to handle it!!! screen goes black, and when i press alt and tab it says video driver has faild or somit like that and the screen resolutin goes to 4bit and a realy rubish colour count, ohh well.

The hilarious thing about these trailers is that they are in the 'Windows Media HD' format - which basically means that the trailers require a ridiculously high computer system to even watch.

What I am not sure about is - How are we supposed to care or be interested in these games, when probably 90% of gamers don't even own computers that are fast enough to watch the promo trailers, let alone play the games?

Very strange. I've seen a few sites releasing promo's in this 'wmv-hd' format recently, and even on my new laptop the audio stutters with the highest-res versions.

but then again, most of these trailers are available online (at for example the incredibly useful Game Trailers dot Com website, among others in lower-resolution formats.

Has anyone seen the mountain dew contest?

Anyway the quake 4 trailer was a let down.
The gears of war one was okay.
PGR3 was i think the best. Actually looked like real cars.
