Best Video Game intros?

[Jeeebus]

The original Ninja Gaiden is the best ever

I don't recall ever wanting sweet, sweet revenge so much as after watching that intro.

 

[EKKC]

Final Fantasy XII

How about Zero Wing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4AuN6pN1kY :laugh:

 

[ponyo]

FF3 or Wing Commander II.

Already mentioned, but was surprised it wasn't the first response.

 

[tuyu]

metal gear solid 1 intro

 

[MrWizzard]

DOA X2......

Seriously though star craft ghost full intro was pretty cool.

 

[Ricochet]

Panzer Dragoon Saga was pretty d@mn good for it's time.

 

[Suture]

Double Dragon - Some punk walks up and just punches your girl in the stomach. Then the garage opens and you pursue.

But seriously, Ninja Gaiden was really good it's time. X-Wing was also amazing back in the days of 33MHz systems.

Of modern games... I'd go with anything by Blizzard.

Another space opening...

Damn, forgot all about Zero Wing and Ninja Gaiden, instant classics!

SC2

Does anyone remember this special scene? (not an opening, but oh well)

The Fall

 

[preslove]

What, no Half-Life?

Beat me to it...

Always loved the Wip3out intro. Gran Turismo 3 and HL2 also stand out.

Ditto. Furthermore, the BGM made a good MIDI ringtone.

I thought the MGS3 opening with the "I like MGS2" option was pretty amusing. Snake wears a paratrooper mask throughout the opening and reveals Raiden's face when he finally removes it.

Every Blizzard game ever made..

QFT. It's kinda sad though because I only watch them a few times and I know they put ridiculous amounts of effort in them.

 

[Anghang]

original Ninja Gaiden for NES and the first Gran Turismo for PS1

Another vote for Warhammer: DOW 40K

I mean when that Dreadnaught opens up on those Orks with that rail gun, I get all giddy
