The fact that no one has mentioned the death scene from Red Dead Redemption yet makes me a sad panda.

The aftermath of the Gate section from Spec Ops: The Line. That was a seriously powerful, very moving moment. I'm not sure how to do spoilers on this, so needless to say, don't watch if you don't want a pivotal moment from Spec Ops to be spoiled for you.


It starts from about 3 minutes in, and while it's not technically all cutscene, it's still extremely powerful stuff.

Well, off the top of my head?

Now, I love the visuals and the music in that scene, but for me it's the monologue that cinches that. It contrasts so well with everything you see that the sheer weight of the character's fall is apparent to even a casual viewer like me


Key part for the next one starts at around 0:50 and lasts until about 1:57.

More than anything else, what I like about it is just the way they present it and the atmosphere it creates. By the time you see Kerrigan, you know that she's on the warpath and you know that terrifies everyon, with good reason. In the space of a single minute, the villain has been established as a serious threat.

I know there is a lot of hate from some people surrounding FF13 battle mechanics and whatever, but I can't be the only one who just loved the cutscenes! I couldn't get over the beauty of the graphics they achieved. I can't even pick a favourite but I have to say I was very disappointed they did not put a movie gallery into the game.

Anything from The Bards Tale but in particular:


The Tale of Nuckelavee. To be fair on its own its not as funny, but to give the song some context, your character is the one that set Nuckelavee free (though no one else there knows that).

The battle cutscenes in Xenoblade Chronicles.
There are some really intense and great animations right there.

One word: Blizzard

You can say what you want about their games and their lackluster or just plain stereotypical stories, but, hell, the cinematics they do are top notch. Always. One that has always stood out for me was the opening to Starcraft: Brood War for it's dark edgyness.

"What about Shepard?"


When you're through this cutscene, expect several hundred hours of your life just vanishing in this game.
I was never big on regular old scifi, and it was more like "Meh, your brother said it's good, and you liked Bioware's games so far, so why not give it a try?" moment for me.

After the cutscene, not so much. Your first trip through a relay changes things :D

A few of my faves have already been mentioned, anything with Gray Fox from MGS1 blows my mind and the FF series has always been a source of good memories in this dept....before 12 i hasten to add.

Triangle Heads dubious antics in SH2 anyone?

But the one that has always stuck in my head was the onimusha intro, first game i played on the PS2 and i just remember being all WHAAAAAAAA...or something like that.
