They depict Metro atmosphere so well that I wouldn't mind to see fully featured movie done this way.

So what are some other Live Action trailers for games that you think are good and represented games well?

This one signel handedly sold me on the game on vibe alone.

I mean, technically, it's live-action.

This was the culmination of the once-in-a-generation level of Halo 3 hype for me. I must have watched it 50 times.

Dont forget the Halo ODST Live action trailer. I would put on par with the Halo Reach one.

Loved this one, too. The music, mood, everything was just sublime.

Not really representative of the final product (which I also love for different reasons) but great as a standalone piece, nonetheless.

Yep, that one is also a classic.

This is another from Reach that is super underrated.

The focus on civilian life and normal, every day situations just moments before the Covenant attacked was very different for Halo at the time.

I don't think I'll ever be as hyped for a game as I was for Halo: Reach lmao.

I apologize if this breaks the rules of self promo but I made this for DEADROP. It's technically unofficial but the development team embraced it and used it in their own content and marketing. I turned it into a series and am working on a sequel. I also have live action shorts written for three other IP. I'm excited to keep making live action stuff in the future.
