Love Freespae and Freespace 2's intros personally

and Homeworld

X wing Alliance.

The Witcher has to be up there IMO.

Lunatic Dreyfus · 1 Mar 2008 at 21:45

For me these always spring to mind...

Homeworld 1 & 2
X-Wing (Back in 1993 this midi backed intro blew my mind.

)
Diablo 2 had a pretty spectacular intro movie for its time as well.

Diablo 2

Plunk13 · 1 Mar 2008 at 21:57

WH4K Dawn of War.

Best outro would be The Witcher

FirebarUK · 1 Mar 2008 at 22:00

Freespace series and Warhammer 40k DoW.

Marky · 1 Mar 2008 at 22:04

Call of Duty 4

I-War. Point blank. It's 15 minutes long and awesome

A small film!

Worth watching if you've not seen it before.

Mechwarrior 2 and Full Throttle are in there as well...

Don't know what it was about the MW2, I think it was the first real FMV intro I vividly remember and it always seemed so intense!

Probably one of the C&Cs as well.......just for the music.

Dawn of War and Diablo 2 are both excellent. But for me its got to be Deus Ex, great music and it plants little seeds that get unlocked as you play through the game.

Heavy Gear, that was good too.

"Sentry one. Sentry one?"

Not great but I always remember it for that moment.

Frapple · 1 Mar 2008 at 22:17

CoD4 was immense first time round.

Hellgate London is probably the best I've seen in a few years though.

uvarvu · 1 Mar 2008 at 22:32

Mechcommander gold has a great intro too! You can put Supreme Commander Forged Alliance in the list also.

Sinny · 1 Mar 2008 at 22:38

Devil May Cry 4
Half Life 2 (Best outro)

cant really remember much others without playing them.

WH40k was pretty good.

Kemik · 1 Mar 2008 at 22:45

Half Life one being a famous intro that sticks in my head.

WoW was a pretty good, graphical intro video but I'm sure there are better. Not sure why I loved it so much but its just a favourite of mine.

ins0mn1ac · 1 Mar 2008 at 22:55

Battlefield 2's intro is pretty ace if you ask me.

Duke · 1 Mar 2008 at 22:56

Carmageddon

Thought the intro to Crusader : No Remorse was awesome when I was younger.

MechWarrior 2 was indeed the first really amazing intro I saw. "He's got a lock on me! HE'S GOT A LOCK ON M---" *BOOM*
