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 :)
