There have been a lot of bad video game commercials over the years but also some really great ones. The video game commercials in this video managed to capture our interest, make us laugh, and a couple even made us tear up. Here are the 10 most epic video game commercials of all time! • 1. Super Smash Bros. • Super Smash Bros. has gained a massive following over the years. We love this commercial for the first game on the Nintendo 64. There is something so satisfying about watching cute Nintendo characters beat the crap out of each other. It also features the voice of the ‘In a world’ Hollywood voice-over legend Don LaFontaine. And who knew Mario was the kind of asshole that likes to start random fights? • 2. Ratchet Clank • Insomniac’s Ratchet Clank games are known primarily for their wacky weapons. But what if some of the weapons from the game made it into the real world? That’s the premise of this great commercial from 2004. The teenagers that have mysteriously acquired some of Ratchet’s weapons aren’t really handy with them. It’s probably a good thing that none of these guns actually exist. • 3. Gears of War • Who could forget this one? The Gears of War commercial perfectly nails the “destroyed beauty” thing the series has always aimed for. It makes the prospect of fighting off the Locust feel like a daunting task. While it doesn’t really represent the gameplay, you have to admit it sets the tone extremely well. The Mad World song by Gary Jules has become just as iconic for the series as the logo and the chainsaw gun. • 4. Battlefield: Bad Company ads • We loved the Battlefield: Bad Company ad campaign that was all about spoofing other games. They made fun of Gears of War … Solid Snake from the Metal Gear series also fell victim to the Bad Company crew … and they even joked about Rainbow Six Vegas 2… It helped that the game itself was great as well. Can we please have another Bad Company game soon EA? • 5. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 • This Sonic the Hedgehog 2 commercial was easily one of the funniest commercials ever to air on television back in the nineties. It mocked the infomercial format that was all over television at that time. Sega listed all the things Sonic the Hedgehog 2 could be used for. The game of course didn’t do any these things but it sure was funny to watch. • 6. Halo 3 • Has there ever be a more hype inducing commercial than this Believe ad for Halo 3? Microsoft and Bungie poured their hearts and souls into one of the best gaming advertisements we’ve ever seen. The concept of showing a real life diorama of soldiers fighting the Covenant is of course extremely original. The music fits the tone perfectly too. The attention to detail and epic nature of this commercial gives us chills every time. • 7. PlayStation 3 Michael • This commercial features some of the most well-known video game characters to ever grace us with their presence on the PlayStation 3. Sony went all out to please gamers by including all of the original voice actors for each character. The heroes are toasting to all us gamers in this case represented by Michael Mamaril. This is a gamer who died of cancer at the young age of 22. It makes the epic salute by the game characters that much more meaningful. • 8. World Of Warcraft • World Of Warcraft had a bunch of great commercials featuring all kinds of celebrities. It’s a great idea to show the broad appeal of the massive online game by having celebs share their supposed World of Warcraft avatar. There was William Shatner … Mister T. …. Mini-Me Verne Troyer …. And Ozzy Osbourne. However our favorite has to be Chuck Norris. This ad once again reminds us why you should never mess with this 76 year old badass. • 9. Kevin Butler Sony Commercials • Kevin Butler is arguably one of the best marketing tools in gaming of recent years. Everything this middle-aged man appeared in was pure gold. There are just so many epic commercials. We loved it when he took the piss out of Kinect… The crossbow shot was epic too… and who can forget the bathroom candle c’mon… • 10. Live action Metroid commercials • We love all of the live action Metroid commercials because it’s probably the closest we’ll ever come to a movie. It started with this commercial for the Gameboy Advance. Followed by this ad for the Super Nintendo… There’s a great Gamecube one… and another one for the Gamecube. The last live action TV ad was this one for Metroid: Other M on the Wii. They’re all great and we hope Nintendo will continue the tradition for future Metroid games. • What is your favorite video game commercial of all time?
