I´m no big Fan of Blizzard games, but of Blizzard commercials. They once had downloads in fairly high quality for all of them via a special downloader, but these download sources are gone. (aka these downloaders do nothing anymore) Anybody knows where to go to find them in that quality today?

Which one, for example?
There are some Firefox addons still working in many cases.

Weird, I didn't receive a notification about this..

Anyway, that Blizzard trailer in the player isn't 1080p.
I don't know if the movies could be extracted from the downloadable exe file.
Btw, aren't those on Youtube anymore?

I see a link to Youtube under most of those videos, and it seems the exe is a downloader, not a packaged video file.

Ah, right lol.
Well, from Youtube you can download them.

Correct, these downloader download links are what I was talking about.
These links are working, but the downloaders aren´t working anymore...

Most of them are on Blizzard's YouTube channel, nicely linked from that page. There are also a multitude of applications able to download videos from YouTube - personally, I like youtube-dl, but due to being a console application it's not everyone's cup of tea. If you'd like a mouse-driven application, I'm sure it wouldn't take you 15 minutes to find one.

Yes, but if you take a look at the size of the downloads you´ll see that they should be far higher quality than what´s on youtube. Not gamersyde quality, but near to it!
Bump.

Now that I remember a bit better, those downloaders are really Bittorrent clients that downloads a specific torrent (and the included torrent file, in turn, only specify Blizzards now discontinued tracker).

There is a way to extract the torrent file from the executable and use that in any generic Bittorrent client, as well as edit the file to reference third-party trackers. But it would probably be easier to just search various torrent sites for the files.
