Hello there people I couldn't help noticing something that almost always lies to you about the game's graphics gameplay is the game intro. Sometimes the intro is good and the game is bad or the intro is bad and the game is a lot of fun. I've been looking for amazing great intros.

Like this One

This is the Custom Robo intro for the Nintendo Gamecube (I wish the game was like that). It is epic, even more epic than some intros I've seen nowdays (that game was released ages ago) I doubt there are a lot of intros better than that one, of course there are...but not a lot.

What do you think of game intros? Do you have any good game intros=? Post some links and Discuss people!

Not an intro as such, but the opening Blitzkrieg Americalevel of Turning Point: Fall of Liberty.
Unfortunately, the rest of the game never lived up to the rather good opening sequence.

I do have to admit custom Robo had an awesome opening. Castlevania PoR and OoE also seemed to have good openings to me.

I don't really care about intros, to me, all that matters is the gameplay, but DK 64's intro was amazing, see it there. that was the only intro that I really liked.

Resident Evil 4 has a pretty awesome intro, from Leon's opening RE lore monologue through the first battle in the village. Good stuff.

Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII.

Beautiful, and reminiscent of FFVII's opening scene.

None of you can deny that this was the most epic intro of any game back in 1998.

Seriously though, this intro is probably one of my favorities. Probably the best out of the whole franchise.

I'm a huge fan of the Battlefield games, and Battlefield 2142 was a fantastic game with, in my opinion, a fantastic intro. Watch this before you play the game and you're fired up and ready to roll!

Onimusha Demon Siege - the opening movie had about the best graphics I've ever seen on the PS2.

We talking about the opening scene of the actual game once you start "new game" or the opening video that constantly reruns?

Either way, I can name a ton in my opinion. Final Fantasy 4 through 12, Metal Gear Solid 1 - 4, Persona 3 and 4, Street Fighter 4, Star Ocean 4... is that enough?

I just started playing COD 4 for the first time and the car ride at the beginning was really intense. I was impressed.

Bioshock. Crashing, walking through that sketchy building, through the Bathysphere introduction to Rapture, and the first splicer you see...

The first time I saw it, I knew nothing about the game, and all I thought was "Wow". Didnt stop playing for days.....

(somebody already said FFX....)

Castlevania PoR and OoE also seemed to have good openings to me.Hegna1

Hoo yeah! *high five*

Dissidia FF is my latest favorite. Totally crazy and over-the-top, but it really gets your adrenaline pumping.

Final fantasy VI's was very epic. especially when seeing those magiteck armors trekking through the snow, as that beautiful tune is playing in the background.

here is FFVI's intro

One of the best intros would be the one for The Witcher.

Full motion-capture, real swordplay.

Took longer than one year to make it.
