Favorite game intro?

[MLChanges]

I so need to play/replay some of these games. I've been trying to make time for Persona 3&4 for about a year and now I want to go back and play the Chrono games now. Maybe I'll just give up on new games and stick with my RPG collection for the rest of my days. the be on topic I Vote for Zelda:LTTP for the memories if nothing else.

I would have to say Onimusha 3 has my favorite opening

Warcraft 3.
With Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time in a close second.

EDIT: Holy crap, i just realized the first words of the WC3 intro are "the sands of time" ....crazy!

 

[The Madman]

Some of my favourites over the years have already been mentioned, but a few others spring to mind:


Ah the Thief series, so slick, so stylish, so goddamned awesome.

For strategy games though I think this is my favourite:


Really captures the essence of a good strategy game.

Mortal Kombat Armageddon, it's awesome to see every one of the kombatants fighting at once.

It just gives me the chills, and I love it so damn much
Also, it features one of my favourite songs

I loved that intro, and I thought it was really well done.

I thought the song fit the intro and the game fairly well, and it's a really good song too!

I had a bit of a lull at work last night and a few others came to mind for honorable mention. So, without further ado:

#4 It was a close battle between Neverwinter Nights 2 and Blizzard's Warcraft 3. Very close battle. In the end, however, the margin was Neverwinter Nights 2.

#3 Neverwinter Nights. A totally awesome battle between a young Lord Nasher and a minotaur.

#2 I think that about one in four kids had to change their pants when this intro played for the first time on their Commodore 64's. This is emulated through a 4-voice 8-bit sound synthesizer. That feat alone earns a special place of remembrance. The other memorable feat would be the time when EA didn't suck.

[The Boy in the Hat]

Only two people said Borderlands? :')

I loved the Borderlands intro. A nice little pen-and-ink cinematic that sums up neatly what you're doing, with humour and a little cuteness, then the most cinematic and rocking bus journey ever conceived.
