If so, i think its /thread

Get N or Get Out!

*Snigger*

I had almost forgotten about that. I've personally never seen an advert for a videogame that I thought really conveyed the joy of playing.

Just a quick tip to those who don't know how to post a Youtube video:
1) Find your video, copy the URL
2) Type [*youtube= into the Escapist message box (Without the star)
3) Paste the URL into said message box
4) Delete everything in the URL leading upto the "v=" bit
AKA-http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccWrbGEFgI8
Deleting the unimportant bits leaves you with "ccWrbGEFgI8"
5)Close the tag, it should look like so [*youtube=ccWrbGEFgI8] (Without the star).

OT

This single video ensured I got an Xbox 360, the 'Destroyed Beauty' environment and the feeling over being overwhelmed. It remains to be one of the most played games I own, as well as one of the most fun, and it started with a sixty second clip.

Not a [i/]game[/i] per-say, but this banned 360 add is, in a word, epic.

XD imagine if that took place in the real world and entire map was the planet, it would be #4 in the greatest moments in earths history.

I think it's brilliant.

I wasn't too into fable 2, but this ad is awesome.

 

[Worgen]

there is only one game ad and it is this one, all others pale in comparison

 

[FoolKiller]

for me its these 3, although I'm too lazy to embed them:

3. Final Fantasy VII - just made me want to buy a PlayStation
2. Lost Odyssey - as emotional as Gears of War with Mad World was, I liked this one better with White Rabbit by Jefferson Aeroplane
1. Mortal Kombat - just because of the awesomeness of the crowds running around nearly 20 years ago

 

[Sinclair Solutions]

This is on par with any Kevin Butler ad, but it remains my personal favorite.

 

[Angus565]

This is definitely one of my favorites.

The guy at the end is just fantastic!

 

[ThatLankyBastard]

This is my fave...

It's the music...

 

[Marik2]

Well I love the halo trailers and since most people got my picks Im gonna go with this one.

 

[Shoggoth2588]

I love this one...


...and I just discovered this one...


...The second one is kinda freaky, no?

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

By a landslide, this.


EDIT:

Shit, I was ninja'd.
