But cheesegrater, the cheese (hah) is exactly why I love C&C cinematics so damn much.

My favourite movie intro was the powerful one for Zork Nemesis. The first time I saw it, my reaction was :eeeeeh: as it featured a man stabbing himself in the stomach with a lethal looking knife. Then the player travelled into the wound and down a blood-filled artery and suddenly we were shooting over a massive and exotic underground building before stopping abruptly at the gates. All this was accompanied by haunting music. When the player arrives at the gates a soft and lovely female voice explains that since the day of the Great Eclipse the land has been cursed by evil and they're waiting for someone to come and release them from this evil curse.

The game lived up to this compelling beginning - and more.

Somebody already mentioned Fallout, but I actually never played it; I imagine it's very good, though. Fallout Tactics has a very nice intro - it's not that it was so cool, really, as much as it put the viewer into the game; after seeing it, I truly felt as if I was a surviver of the nucear war and whatever The Fallout games story is actually very well crafted, in my opinion.

Kingdom Hearts for the GBA had a very nice intro movie. The grass in it looks very real.

But the best I would say is Hidden and Dangerous 2. I recommend people buy the game just for the intro. LOL

I can't remember many others. Does anyone know or remember what the intro for Unreal 2 was? I've completely forgotten it.

Unreal 2 didn't really have an intro, just them flying around from planet to planet (there was sort of an intro when they found the first artefact though).

Besides some already mentioned...

Fallout.

"War. War never changes." Ron Perlman.

How could I forget Fallout 2??? :blink: :blink: :blink:

"War, war never changes. The end of the world occured pretty much as we predicted. To many humans, not enough spaces or resources....The details are, as always, pointless and trivial." - intro goes something like this

Also few in game movies are stunning (leaving San Francisco with ship) k:

Return To Castle Wolfenstein had a great intro. I also really like the intro to Myst, just for Atrus' commentary.

EDIT- Yup, I forgot Fallout too. Which is stupid, as that's what I had intended to post until someone else mentioned RtCW. Yes, Fallout's "War never changes" bit is pure gold.

Did anyone ever play Operation Flashpoint? I think that had a pretty amazing intro. Game was a huge step up for when it came out. Hairy...

[bjbrains2002]

Yea the operation flashpoint intro was great.

Hmm,

I loved the first run video in C&C TS. The intros to both sides were awsome too. Another good one was the FFXI intro. Was cool when the orc attacked the viallage and all the archers swords men, and mages fightin back. Kinda sad how the kids sister gets killed by an orc. The hl1 intro was good for the first time, but got boring later on.
