Favourite intro

So as thread title suggests, what is your fav gaming intro?

Just finished Mass Effect 2 and starting another run through and I love the intro movie to this game, such an epic feel to it.

Also I don't know how to post vids on here otherwise I would post it

Intro to 1 gave me more goosebumps (though the intro to 2 is still good).

if you use youtube for vids put (take the spaces out) [ youtube] then instead of adding the full url just add the part after = eg: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lx9sPQpjgjU then same as 1st bit but with a / beforehand eg: [ /youtube ]

do it right and it will look like this

ps: ME2 ***, outstanding game.

Half life 1 intro

Nothing will beat that for me such a leap in gaming.

Quite possibly Warcraft 2.

The Dig also has a great intro.

It's got to be the intro to Dawn of War

Oh some awesome intros here, personally I'm still loving the mass effect 2 one (I think I'm a GFX fanboi though, coz I love all the newer ones) and half life will always have a special place for me as well.

Woo another one for Mass effect 2. The whole intro up until after the ship blows up is awesome and even the interactive parts where you decide what to say are beautifully scripted.
