Title: Best video game intros
Post by: Leshma on September 26, 2012, 09:32:25 pm
I'm a bit late to the party and so I decided to open the new thread instead of further derailing the important cRPG logo topic.

Yeah, I skip intros most of the time. But I don't know anyone who skipped this intro:

I remember this one so well.
This is not the version in the actual game, but a concept that got cut.

Wanted to post UT 99 intro, I liked the idea.

Something with similar idea, a lot better than GTA intros :)

I was actually really impressed with this intro, gave me the chills. Executed perfect for the game! Probably one of the best intro's i've ever seen..

They clearly improved based on the first one, which was already very good :D

No offense to you and Gurni but that intro was shitty even in year 1999. when game came out. Even as teenager I was laughing at that intro. But game itself is in my top 3 favorite games and probably something closest to actual board game you'll ever find in digital form.

At that time, AoE intro left much stronger impression on me although it looks like shit nowadays.

This is an intro which looks incredibly cheesy nowadays but left quite the impression on me in year 2001:
 

And of course best game intro ever is Half Life intro but we're talking about non-playable intros here, not interactive ones. You don't have to watch it on youtube, just d/l Black Mesa and play it, it's even better than original :)

I remember people asking wtf I was watching.

Then "Oh it's a videogame  :o"

Btw, in all the cases the japanese intros have a better 2nd music, I don't really enjoy my gay chemigaycal bromagaynce, but the interesting parts are at the start.

I've never heard of this actually. Looks a lot like me playing shift with no driving help and no HUD. Sounds awesome.

Loved this game. Picked it up for cheap in steam sales. I'd highly recommend buying it if it's on deal. Graphics, story and atmosphere were fantastic.
