Best Game Introduction (In you opinion)

[pantsoffdanceoff]

Was it when the Gman told you to wake up and smell the ashes?
Was it when you got fucking malaria for no other reason than a game-lengthening gimmick?
Was it when a horny turtle jacked your shortie and brought her back to his crib?
Was it when some random high school girl tried to shoot herself in the forehead?
Was it when you were welcomed to aperture science?
Was it something I didn't mention?


What is your favorite game introduction that, beyond a shadow of a doubt, informed you that you were starting an awesome game?

(To all you Nazis: This topic was done last about 8 months ago from what I could tell, and that's a bit old to be necroing)
(Props to whoever can identify all the games mentioned)

Forgot to put mine in, although granted this cutscene's near the beginning it's not THE beginning.

Fallout 3. POP! right out of a womens vagina, with blood on your....... [HEADING=1]eye balls[/HEADING].

Kingdom Hearts 2, even though the rest of the game wasn't that great. I still like the intro.

And belated congrats on your 1000th post

Search bar you bastard! haha sorry had to.

Because we're friends (I think), I won't stab you.

Well it wasn't Liam Neeson's vagina, was it?

Annoyingly now I can't stop thinking of the opening of HL2 on the train, so I'm going to have to say that. Thanks he says, voice mired in sarcasm.

Two words: Plane Crash.
Or, to be more specific...

Spoiler: Bioshock Spoiler

Plane Hijacking

We will never know, and I pretty much made this thread because that HL2 scene was stuck in my head.

No, you had blood on your camera lens; all first person characters have cameras for heads until switched to third person.

And just for you i am going to go back and super size 'eye balls'.

Doubles as "best introduction to a fun, minor gameplay mechanic" (surfing).

I think I know them all.

-Half-Life 2
-Far Cry 2
-Mario
-Persona (not sure on this one but I remember there being people shooting themselves in the head)
-Portal

I really like Half-Life's. Riding the tram through Black Mesa, getting to see the sights before the whole place goes to hell.

Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn. J=Jon Irenicus.

Spoiler

J: "Ah, the Child of Bhaal has awoken. It is time for more...experiments."

*Blasts you with magic.*

J: "The pain will only be passing, you should survive the process.

*blasts you with moar magic!*

J: "Interesting. You have much untapped power."

*blasts you some more*

J: "Do you even realise your potential?"

*Golem walks in.*

G: More intruders...have entered..the complex...master...

J: "They act sooner than we had anticipated. No matter they will only prove a slight delay."

*teleports out*

Fast forward to outside the lab...

J:"You dare to attack me here, do you even know whom you face?"

*Starts obliterating Shadow Thieves with magic.*

J:"You will suffer! You will all suffer!"

*turns attention to the main character*

J: "So Godchild, you have escaped. You are more resourceful than I had thought."

Imoen: "You're not going to torture us any longer!"

J: "Torture? Silly girl you just don't understand what I'm doing do you?"

I: "I don't care what you're doing. Let us go!"

J: "I won't let you leave, not when I'm so close to unlocking your power!"

I: "We don't want anything from you." *casts Magic Missile on J*

J: "I will no longer listen to the babbling of ignorant children." *retaliates with his own spell*

*Cowled Wizards port in*

CW1: "This is an unsanctioned use of magical energy."

CW2: "All involved will be held. This disturbance is over."

J: "Must I be interrupted at every turn? Enough of this!" *starts annihilating the Cowled Wizards one by one*

*more wizards port in*

CW3: "This mage's power is immense, we must overcome him quickly."

J: "Enough, I haven't the time for this!"

CW3: "You will cease your spell casting and come with us!"

J: "You bore me mageling. You may take me in but you will take the girl as well."

I: "What? No! I've done nothing wrong!"

CW3: "You have been involved in illegal use of magic. You will come with us."

I: "I'm not going with him! I'm not! Help me...please!"

*Cowled Wizards, Jon and Imoen port out*

Still sends chills down my spine.

Wow that looks like a kickass game, I assume its a JRPG?

BlazBlue is an arcade fighter actually. New one came out recently on the 360 but there was hardly any marketing or hype for it.
