The giants intro that was allready posted and the Section 8 intro were pretty epic

Strike Witch 12-30-2009 04:29 PM



=D love it.

By far.

Obviously, all the OW game intros are fantastic.

I liked the beginning of Black & White too...I know one of the artists <3, although the tutorial lagged on xD Primal's opening movie is pretty damn good, it's worth watching...and playing.

Peach got.. caked.

thank you.

another favourite game intro of mine would be Crystal Dragon on Amiga. nothing special, but i really enjoy the music and storyline it has. and one (possibly only) of the main programmers is on You Tube.

he is now obsessing over some digital snowflake stuff.

That actually is something we can both agree on.
Crystal dragon was epic.

Dragons are a fiction created by the devil to lead us away from the wonderment of God. That is all that I have to say on the subject.

Wings of Fire 12-31-2009 07:36 AM



Still mine.

~Oprilthevykker~ 12-31-2009 03:39 PM

.. BANG BANG BANG BANG!!!


Wings of Fire 12-31-2009 03:43 PM

That's called a commercial, sweety.

~Oprilthevykker~ 12-31-2009 03:43 PM

Sweetie, it's still an "intro".

Wings of Fire 12-31-2009 03:43 PM

Not really, sweety.

~Oprilthevykker~ 12-31-2009 03:45 PM

Oh sweetheart, we can argue on how ignorant you
are for even trying to correct me on something this pointless
all day.. But when it comes down to it, it's the point of posting
something that show's you the inside story of what your going
to be dealing with.. "ZOMBIES". So yeah, let's drop this and carry on
Baby, sugar, honey-pie o' mine.

Wings of Fire 12-31-2009 03:46 PM

I think you're a bad man and I feel dirty inside.

used:) 12-31-2009 03:47 PM

It's a commerical, not an intro. Get over it.

~Oprilthevykker~ 12-31-2009 03:47 PM

Not nearly as dirty as the nasty things I wanna do to you.

Shut up Opril. Stop acting like you're smarter than everyone else when you clearly are not. And especially don't try it on one of our most intelligent members.

'Intro' ≠ introducing people to the concept and story of the game.
'Intro' = beginning of game, usually an opening cinematic.

~Oprilthevykker~ 12-31-2009 04:20 PM

Did I say I was smarter then everyone else?
Anyway, here.

Issat worth getting? I played the demo and I was not impressed, but I did love Symphonia ever so much.

Strike Witch 12-31-2009 04:26 PM

I think it's excellent. It just takes a bit to break in, but the witty banter in the palace escape at the start pretty much sold me on the game.

"We beat them into next week!"
"Next week...? but can you really.."
"Nevermind."

or

"It'll take a hundred years before you can beat me!"
"Because you've lived that long, right Yuri?"
"Uh, no."

and then when they get out and Estelle tries to give him a high-five.

Wings of Fire 12-31-2009 04:34 PM

Huh, it's that or Dragon Age Origins then.

And I do love the Tales games ever so much...

Strike Witch 12-31-2009 04:39 PM

Personally, Dragon age is the better game. But Tales is good too. just save one for a later date.

The opening cutscene in MediEvil on ps1, i had just upgraded from 16 bit consoles and it was just so incredible such a quantom leap, but AO would be a close second.

MeechMunchie 01-01-2010 07:26 AM

It wasn't an intro, but I almost cried at the cutscene in Darwinia when Dr Sepulveda was talking about how Darwinians make a pilgrimage to the Reciver, coming of age by helping the next generation into the world. And the ending, when he talks about the Darwinians killed by Soul Destroyers. 'They will haunt the places of their death forever, with no hope of an afterlife or rebirth. I think finally, the Darwinians understand what it means for one of their kind to truly die.' Beautiful.

Mojo 01-03-2010 04:03 AM

Opening scene in Bioshock is one of the best for me. I spent a few minutes to see when the intro continued, only to find out that it was in-game.
