Blizzard are average, that WoW intro is alright but nothing spectacular.

Shenmue Intro: http://youtube.com/watch?v=cKOv7qWm-_I

Best ever. (Audio is out of sync in video)

Amazing how the Dreamcast still looks great to this day.

watching that is like prodding an open wound, to think it may never be finished off is crushing.

Shame on you for not linking this version though: http://youtube.com/watch?v=As0aOyS6lS4

Although it was the weakest out of the series, I found the intro to Metal Gear Solid 2 to be one of my favourites.

yep my favourite too, but for me mgs2 was the best!

ps: You didnt link the intro movie, the intro movie is this:

how people say that mgs3 has better music, need to listen to that all the way through.

the one you linked was just the opening cutscene on the tanker chapter i think.

Without a shadow of doubt: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPR8bBmUYlg

I also love this - Age of Empires II

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rS_n3JVTPE

Agreed, wow brings back so many memories!

 

[Silent-Lucidity]

Blizzard do the best cut-scenes by far!

This one takes some beating. My favourite from Warcraft 3.
