Favorite Game intro of all time

[Archereus]

I'm hardly original for saying this but:

Agreed I am definitely with you. I love the FF8 intro so much.

 

[GeekFury]

It's a toss up between.

Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver

Legacy of Kain: Defiance

 

[The_Decoy]

Maybe not the best, but one of the first I saw to really grip me and stay with me:


Was the first final fantasy I played, plus the music is epic.

(fingers crossed I've embedded this right)

 

[The Madman]

My two personal favorites.

Legacy of Kain: Defiance
Yeah that game is so good. Underrated i think.

 

[Kryzantine]

Zero Wing.

OK, sarcasm aside, i quite liked the introduction to The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay, mostly because the first level (his escape just after arriving) is actually a dream sequence, and once you're out of the dream, as you enter Butcher Bay, you know this shit just got even more real.

Really, IMO, Escape from Butcher Bay was the only real game that got prisons right. The atmosphere is just incredible, and you wonder how the prison could be even more containing than before.

Soul blade no question about it


Amazing stuff

 

[RDL_Razor]

Let me remind you the times when the grass was #00FF00.


P.S.: That MGS intro looks like an 007 rip-off. And is probably too.

Holy Shit! I forgot about Soul Blade! Good stuff.

 

[The Madman]

Oh jeez, how could I have forgotten these ones.



And of course the two clan intro as well.

Spoiler

Good times!

 

[Darwins_Folly]

I was blown away first Time I saw the Final Fantasy XII opening. Friggin epic.

 

[Evilproduct]

Bioshock & Indigo Prophecy (Fahrenheit for the Euros)

Medal of Honor: Frontline. A quote shows up on the screen before it shows you and a company of frightened American soldiers approaching Omaha Beach in a landing craft. It was very reminiscent of Saving Private Ryan and I remember being in complete awe of it when I first played the game.

 

[Generator]

Surprised no one's said Borderlands yet. That being said, Borderlands. It tells you just about everything you need to know about the plot of the game in very few words and to the tune of a catchy Cage The Elephant song. It's very stylistic and it really got me excited to start playing.

 

[02y211]

Off the top of my head FF8, Deus Ex, Half Life.

 

[Vet2501]

Personnal favourite has to be Zelda:OoT, starting off with the night sky with Epona galloping across the horizon then taking a flight across Hyrule Field against the sunrise, only one word can descibe it: beautiful.

 

[Sir_Tor]

Sometimes it sends shivers down my spine! And it reminds me of the good ol' days

 

[Dexiro]

Demon Souls
