E3 is upon us. What is your favorite E3 trailer of this gen?

It's incredible how annoying her comments are, even in the reveal trailer :/
I only heard about it in passing from my older brother when he said it was the leaked title cover for Game Informer that month. But when I saw the pilot summon and enter the titan, I was sooo hyped for the game and made me acknowledge the Xbox One console, despite the controversey around it. Needless to say, it's one of if not my top game this gen.
Spider-Man's reveal was probably the most-hyped moment of the gen for me. AAA Spider-Man by one of the most consistent devs in the business? basically a dream game.
bonus: not an E3 trailer but RDR2's reveal is one of my favorite trailers of all time. just an excellent tone piece.

People in here saying MGSV 2013 E3 trailer is better than 2014 E3 trailer. I must live in a different reality than y'all or smth
This. Nobody edits a trailer like Kojima.
That trailer is the better one but special shout out to the 2015 E3 trailer as well.
I was hoping you'd go with Hunting Monsters. Perfectly captures the entire game in a few seconds.
Oh man I gotta add this to my list. The Death Stranding trailer made me emotional and it's incredibly surreal.
The bloodborne trailer was amazing but last year's Cyberpunk 2077 trailer is probably my favorite.
Also, Mario Odyssey trailer was nuts. First time seeing Mario possessing another creature was pretty memorable.

As bad as I thought the actual game was, the Red Band MGSV trailer was incredible.
After always being disappointed in his games, Ground Zeroes was finally the breakthrough I wanted to see. I let myself get hyped for MGSV, in so small part due to this trailer. Then the game came out, and Idk if I can ever get hyped for a Kojima game again.

Trailers:
1) MGSV E3 2014 Red Band trailer. MS kind of ruined the trailer by not showing the full trailer during their conference but the full trailer with Paz's stomach being cut open and ocelot torturing people was very jarring and effective. A fantastic showing of new gameplay features mixed in with character introductions and other cutscenes. Topped only by this latest Death Stranding trailer, but Sony screwed him over by not hosting a E3 conference this year.
2) Uncharted 4 fake 1080p 60 fps realtime teaser. turned out to be bs, and nothing more than a glorified cutscene but it was THE best looking game out at the time. nothing really compared.
3) Forza Horizon trailers. i dont care for the games, but man these trailers are amazing. great soundtrack selection and visuals.
4) Cyberpunk 2077 trailer. I think it's fake like the Uncharted 4 trailer, prerendered at best, completely fake at worst, but it did an excllent job of showing an insane next gen looking world. There is more detail here than in a rockstar game. Hell, it felt like a Rockstar GTA trailer.
5) this black ops 3 multiplayer trailer. it is so well synced and does a fantastic job of showing the all new classes.
Demos.
1) TLOU 2 demo. For ND to blow people away literally five years into the gen is quite something. the gameplay is simply leagues above anything else out there and was the most jaw dropping demo ive seen this gen.
2) Anthem - If this didnt turn out to be fake, this would have taken the top spot. Truly next gen graphics with flying and some great A,I systems in play that we never got to see in the final game. Still, very impressive.
3) God of War reveal - self explanatory.
4) Horizon reveal - Rarely has a game managed to live up to my expectations. they managed to capture the look and feel of those leaked concept art shots and had some of the most unique combat of any game that year.
5) uncharted 4 demo. it spoiled the only big setpiece in the game which is kind of unforgivable but what are you gonna do.

This is up there for me.
Tops is Hitman, though.
The music syncing with his breathing...so goddamn cool.
I've actually never actually watched this trailer and it's really great!
These two back-to-back. I remember thinking "oh nice Versus XIII is still alive" and then the title change happens and "WAIT IT'S XV HOLY SHIT WHAT". Then the KH trailer starts and I figured it was just a trailer for the HD collection... until it wasn't. Disregarding how disappointing FFXV turned out (and the fact that basically nothing in that trailer ended up in the final game) or how long it took for these games to actually release, this still feels like a legendary moment.
Not exactly level design since it's just a tech demo for the engine, but I see what you mean about it being on the halo ring and looking like in CE. I can see being getting a little hyped about it but I still don't see it being a favorite. Maybe I'm just not that into Halo? I don't know.
This is the correct answer. Enough intrigue without giving the story away, showing a taste of gameplay, and in retrospect, was the best thing of the "E3 of Dreams" conference.
#1 is a no brainer
Kojima is a master in editing, the vistas and music and everything
Runner ups
+ DMC5 reveal
Same here.

I love when reveal trailer show actual gameplay so I loved what Sony did this generation.
My favorite of those is Horizon, I knew nothing about it before, and it really sold me the game. Everything looked fantastic and it turned out to represent the final product pretty well. That's how any new franchise should be introduced, small introduction and then gameplay.
I also loved God of War for the introduction with the orchestra and then gameplay right away.
And also for TLOU2 with the transition between the conference room decoration and the game. Then the technical aspect of the demo blew me away.

I was gonna say:
But then recalled it was a TGS trailer. Thinking about good E3 trailers, I cant really think of anything that comes close to it that would be worth mentioning imo. Also a CGI trailers would never be on top of my list.

LOL!
Theres a small pint of feeling inside me agreeing lol.
No honestly, I think XCX 2014 or Smash Wii U was the best
You're right but I couldn't think of what the term for what I'm referring to lol. It's definitely not level design but the locations in general callback to some of the earlier levels in CE.
