Hope.

I love underdog stories, I have a huge crush on Jace Malcolm, and Trooper is my favorite class.

Yeah, Hope for sure.
Be to her Virtues
very Kind.

Each had their own best moments, but I really really dig what BW did with those vids.

They weren't about selling the Sith/Jedi. They were about selling the other classes. Showing that non-Force using classes would not only have a chance, but in a lot of situations, those Sith/Jedi were toast.

With Hope, they dispelled the concept of the inept foot soldier stereotype that the original trilogy gave us, soldiers who couldn't shoot worth a damn and dying with one shot. They showed that a Trooper can, and should, be a class to be feared, even by Sith Lords. Oh, you can shoot lightning? That's cool. Ever take a high explosive grenade to the face, Darth Concussion?

With Return, they showed that Smugglers/Operatives were a threat to be feared 'and' could be cool as hell, even side by side with Jedi Masters capable of miraculous combat maneuvers.

Lastly, in Deceived, while the focus was almost purely on the Sith/Jedi fighting, there were moments where the BH class showed off for the camera. But, mostly it was about the Jedi and Sith butting heads in beautifully destructive ways.

As for the point...That being, what's my favorite, I'd have to say that Hope is my favorite. It's easy to be cocky when you can swing a lightsaber, influence minds with a wave of your hand and shoot lightning from your fingertips. It's something else entirely to take on an army of such demi-gods with a blaster and a few grenades.

Return, I could care less about the witty smuggler or the epic fight scene, but the historical significance.... the Sith, the true Sith, have returned to Korriban, the homeworld.

Return and Hope are awesome, still gives me chills thinking about them.

Never really liked Deceived, but I think that's the light-side in me. I always like playing the good guys/underdogs.

All are very, very good and for me Deceived is probably the best video game trailer I've ever seen.

But in Return when the gunslinger gets PO'd after the troopers get blind-sided and starts blastin' away is pretty freakin awesome. And then during the big light-saber fight when the Assassin or w/es lights up the ship with force lightning sticks with me for some reason.

This quote is awesome. It made it into my debut post for Quotes of the Day on my website.

You mean: "I couldn't care less" unless you are a closet Smuggler

I'd have to say Return. It inspired me to make my second character, a Pureblood Assassin. That fight scene was beautifully done, and Malgus killing his master was an excellent touch at the end.

Also, did anyone notice how the trailers were released in order like the movies? From future to past, not past to future? Pretty nice touch, if it was intended.

The only thing I didn't like about the trailers: all classes were represented in the trailers, except agents. Made me sad.

Deceived for me. That ending with the Jedi Temple falling and the epic music was so awesome.

Really, I think the music is the best part of the trailers.

Return!
But the three of them are epic.
