Coolest Game Trailers of 2010 Nominees

Throughout the year many companies, both big and small, release promotional trailers to help people recognize how cool their game is. Some of the trailers are simple yet effective other trailers are designed with a lot of careful precision to not only sell the concept of the game but to also get people riled up, amped up and excited for said game. Here at Gaming Blend it was decided that it would be a fun to show a little end-of-the-year appreciation for some of the coolest game trailers released throughout 2010.

The nominees are broken down into various categories and not the arbitrary genres associated with most game types (i.e., strategy games, action games, etc.) Instead, the categories are representative of how trailers are usually organized and released throughout the year (i.e., debut trailers, launch trailers, etc.) You can check out this year’s list of nominees below.
