videogame greatness can occasionally
come outside of the game itself you know
I get so tired of all the shooting and
the killing that’s so nice it’s nice to
have a little moment with you like this
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks for the top
ten live action video game trailers for
this list we take a look at promotional
material that uses real-life actors or
celebrities to advertise the gaming
question they may feature excellent
performances unexpected celebrity cameos
or a production value rivaling the title
they’re attached to number 10 titanfall
it may have just been a minute long but
the work that went into this TV spot for
the mecca style FPS is astounding
each loyal Titan is created with minut
attention to detail while the cards they
create throughout this metropolitan area
is produced with almost entirely
particle effects Frank Sinatra sings me
and my shadow as the camera tracks a
regular bearded chap about his daily
business gleefully reveling in the same
invincibility you’d soon be enjoying at
home inevitably our smiling hero soon
finds his path blocked by another player
and he is faithful Titan as they gear up
for an epic battle the scene seemingly
transitions into gameplay adding a
little more juice to that hype train
[Music]
number nine far cry 3 hello
starring Christopher mintz-plasse as
himself and Michael mando as a
live-action version of the sociopath he
voices in the game this five webisode
series Seesmic Lovins reality show go
fatally awry perfectly establishing the
brutal island paradise he’ll soon be
inhabiting Seattle to the Internet
people’s yo you psycho
mondo as boss Montenegro takes us
through his full repertoire of torture
techniques each carried out with a dark
unhinged humour more ludicrous than
you’ll ever see in the game as
mintz-plasse finally succumbs to being
electrocuted and urinated on it seems
that boss is fun is at an end but much
to his relief some unwitting fodder has
just skydived onto the island thus
beginning the events of the game six
skydiver just land on the island we –
yes really
here the same wait a few people keep
coming here huh
number eight Star Wars Battlefront
[Music]
by Avoca memories of one of the most
iconic movie scenes in history this
large-scale shooter attempts to align
itself with the original trilogy of
space epics the only Star Wars films
worth watching at the time not don’t you
forget this why I should stick my neck
out for you is quite beyond my capacity
just as obi-wan was transported into
another realm when he struck down by his
former Padawan the ad says that any
average Joe from around the world will
do the same when entering dices gorgeous
recreated battlegrounds Anna Kendrick
adding some celebrity gravitas while
wielding a butter knife lightsaber
repeats Kenobi’s legendary words as John
Williams score swells if you strike me
down I shall become more powerful than
you can possibly imagine leaving us with
the new hope that the Star Wars Empire
will strike back and return to its
rightful place as the galaxy’s premium
franchise
[Music]
number seven Need for Speed Most Wanted
[Music]
beginning as an automobile base to take
on sergio leone’s spaghetti western
sports cars and the police is very best
engage in a Mexican standoff with a
deserted Fairhaven City as a backdrop
[Music]
as one of those played out film tropes
you know the tension will soon break but
perhaps you didn’t expect that to happen
by the driver of a drifting Ford Focus
brandishing his middle finger to law
enforcement while jump on it blasts out
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
directed by Jon Favreau whose previous
work includes Iron Man 2 and chef the
ensuing chase shows what these brutes
are capable of before almost
unnoticeably swapping into street racing
gameplay big cars plus a great
soundtrack equal and easy sell for us
number six call of duty black ops this
FPS series has quite the pedigree when
it comes to live-action promotion but
this one for the first black ops game
just beats modern warfare 3 s the vet
and the noob to our list Kobe Bryant and
a useless Jimmy Kim will provide the
star power alongside a collection of
unexpectedly lethal everyday folks like
nurses chefs and concierges alike as
they distribute lead with consummate
ease Activision spared no expense in
marketing their franchise and this hemp
dramatization of what it’s like to play
the game goes hard with the blockbuster
effects and Mick Jagger’s moody end of
times lyrics concierge number 5 the
elderscrolls v Skyrim
in a cinematic sequence that wouldn’t
look out of place in season seven of
Game of Thrones
frenzied townspeople flee from an unseen
threat and even soldiers abandon their
posts in the desolate settlement
our hero in a horned hell no such thing
however striding calmly to face the
Beast causing so much panic the hairs on
your neck prickle as the revealed dragon
roars in our unflinching hero’s face
ramping up player excitement at the time
to a solid eleven after five long years
since Oblivion’s initial release
now that the game is out there we know
it’s epic enough to not need support
from movie quality scenes like this but
are we complaining that we got it anyway
definitely not number four Sleeping Dogs
there aren’t many words in this
unrelenting three and a half minute
short the character Wei Shen is mute
throughout yet it still manages to
communicate plenty about what to expect
from this gritty open-world game the
improvised hand-to-hand choreography is
excellent and while not on the same
technical level as the old boy corridor
scene it similarly makes you feel the
weight of every single blow it doesn’t
give too much away about the undercover
cop plot instead only giving a hint of
its duality throughout contrasts between
Hong Kong’s seediest areas and its neon
facade
it’s actually pretty representative of
the brutal combat that you see in game
just with fewer heads shoved into
air-conditioning systems that is number
three Deus Ex mankind divided have these
augmentations really been tested to say
that what is happening is unnatural
they were playing God but people were
scared of electricity
continuing the themes established
inhuman revolutions live-action trailer
with a notable improvement in quality
this trailer features imagery and
commentary that not so subtly reflects
current political and social issues this
is an attack on humanity although a
little too real for some it succinctly
shows how the human race is tearing
itself apart in 2027 even observing that
the media is inflated and exploiting
differences between humans and the
Augmented for their own interests you’ve
seen what you’re kind of doing my kind
you sound just like them
these issues are kept grounded by
following the faltering relationship
between a normal man and an Augmented
woman giving us a reference point for
how global governmental decree affects
the individual and you know people still
say that video games can’t be art we are
still your neighbors
the brothers your sisters
we’re office number two Metro last light
you don’t need to speak Russian to
understand the horror of this situation
the sheer cluelessness and desperation
on the face of each hapless soul giving
you all the necessary detail of the
impending nuclear attack although most
are nameless the stories of three who
managed to make it down into the Metro
show how life below Moscow has been
flipped on its head
the model and Commander see their past
lives crumbling away with the society
that made them while the previously
laughed at preacher gains a cult
following post-apocalyptic games are
pretty played out these days but this
FPS managed a terrifyingly visceral
method of immersing you in what humanity
has done to itself
[Applause]
before we reveal our topic let’s have a
look at some honorable mentions
[Music]
if a loved one was infected could you do
the right thing
[Music]
congratulations humans haven’t been on
the moon in hundreds of years nice place
to visit but I wouldn’t want to live
here dying here is much more likely nice
pep talk
number one halo 3 ODST
in a universe where we usually skip
through life plain is the invincible
Master Chief it’s easy to forget that
regular Marines are laying down their
lives to make it all happen
tarkoff is just one of these
bog-standard soldiers and in the space
of two minutes we follow his military
career from initial motivation to facing
brutes on the battlefield Bungie tried a
darker narrower plot for the spin-off a
stark contrast to noble teens heroics
indeed deliver hope trailer if this is
what can be crammed into two short
minutes
