What's the best game intro you have ever seen(best looking)?

[MoratJG]

Fahrenheit.

 

[DEL 707]

Dawn of War, helps being an old Warhammer 40k fan

Mark of chaos has a really good intro as well.

 

[binaryknight]

Has got to be Soul Blade on the ps loved that intro.. cant find a video tho

FF intro/cut scences are always amazing

this man speaks the truth, i remember ripping the music and video so i could watch it over and over really got me excited every time...ahhh taki? lol

I can't believe more people haven't said Diablo 2.

Blizzard have always done great intros but D2 has to be the best of them; I was mighty impressed at the time, relatively more so than with the WoW one. In fact, all the FMV sequences in D2 are great and really told the story well.

I-WAR

 

[Ugley_Matt]

Interstate '76

Oh yes that was great.

Half-Life 1 and one of the first Mech Warrior games made me fart with excitement. Other than that, I think mostly it was 3d tech demos and amazing Bryce scenes from back in the day that wowed me the most.

I wish www.3dfiles.com would come back

Oh, and I have to agree with all the Psygnosis stuff people are saying, I met someone who used to be part of the Psygnosis team and actually felt a little star struck lol. Shadow of the beast rocked, I used to phone their helpline up and ask lots of questions, cost my parents a fortune.

hate the game itself as its NOT remotely like the boardgame rules....

but the best intro is Warhammer 40k - Dawn Of War....quality....

cheers

P.S

A token mention has to go to Street Fighter 2 TURBO....when the credits flash accross the screen and the music comes on....not great graphics but gets the blood pumping....

cheers

Nothing comes close the the CGI sequences from FFX IX and X

 

[da_mic_1530]

Mafia - superb cinematic opening that caputred the mood of the game so well and then blended seamlessly into the start of the game.

 

[locutus12]

Total Annhilation!

[Psymonkee]

Off to work so I'll make this quick

HL1
Mechwarrior 3 (STOMPY STOMPY STOMPY!!! )

and

Flatout 1 - great little video that set the game up for me really well

 

[atpbx]

Its Shadow of the Beast 2.
Oh and Thunderhawk on the Amiga was pretty funky as well.

You could say Operation wolf's commando rip off intro was quite cool as well.
