#1- The intro of the original Panzer Dragoon.. Still gives me goosebumps!

I also liked the Onimusha 3 intro with the demons slaughtering the innocent people.

And while this may not exactly fit the top three for me, I also enjoyed both of the intros in Tekken 5 and also the new intro in Dark Resurrection.

I' ll have to think about which game intros would claim the #2 and #3 spots!

Onimusha 3 Intro


Man this was epic! Ive been wanting to replay the Onimusha trilogy every time i watched a NG2 trailer and now im going to rebuy the games.


Fallout


I was surprised to see that it had a very similar style as Bioshock in the first bit (first time i see it).

As for my 3 favorites, i refrain from mentioning them because my memory sucks so i dont want to mention some games while forgetting about others who were better for me.

The style of Bioshock is largely inspired by Fallout. It' s the only great thing about Bioshock.

yeah Onimusha 3 intro is very impressive. One of the best game intros I ever seen. What I like the most is the music. I was never able to finish the game. I' m thinking I was stuck in some part of the game. I haven' t had the chance to play the first one. but I play the 2nd one and I finish it.

I thought Bioshock had an original style back when i played it last year.

Same here. I finished the 2nd which i loved, played part of the first and didnt finish the 3rd for some reason. Now im getting the trilogy again (Hope i find a low price package).

Some of my faves (beware, as I am able to remember beyond the current generation) in no particular order:

Panzer Dragoon - Sega Saturn

Soul Blade - Sony Playstation

Ys Book 1 and 2 - TurboGrafx-16 CD-ROM

Gungriffon - Sega Saturn (MPEG version of the game is even nicer)

Road Avenger - Sega CD

Dracula X - PC Engine Super CD-ROM

Popful Mail - Sega CD

I haven' t really seen much from the current generation that really makes me wet.

I was always mesmerized by the intro of Super Street Fighter II: Turbo.

The best is on games like Sonic the Hedgehog 2 when the Sega logo comes on screen and someone screams " SEGA!" . Not the one where they sing it like in Sonic 1.

Kingdom Hearts. I was skeptical about the game, but the intro sold me right there, from the music to video itself.

Final Fantasy VII, need i say more? Like FF or not, this intro is an integral part of videogame history. Final Fantasy X also comes to mind as a truly great intro.

All the Saturn Panzer Dragoon intros, especially Zwei. That song rules.


Goddamn my tired memory...

1. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare intro

2. Grand Theft Auto IV intro
Pretty rubish quality

Can' t think of any other good ones...
