The best game intro?

Left 4 Dead 2 by far the greatest intro ever. Music, graphics everything makes it awesome.

Megaman 2, because you know what it is and what it does.

In A.D. 1989 memes were beginning. What happen? Somebody failed to set up the Japanese to English Dictionary. (Plus I love the soundtrack to this game :P)

Even though I totally just said this game sucked in the other thread, this was one of the few reasons I would even consider touching this game again.

By watching that megaman intro I think to myself, 'so this is how games have changed'. Megaman is a bloody classic :thumbs:

And to bioshock, i never really understood the game.

Age of Empires 2 intro. Even better in the uncut version! Actually, pretty much any intro to the Age of Empires series could be up here.

Rogue Squadron 3's intro was also good, but it was more on the funny than awesome side of things.

Any game with a strong story is usually going to have a pretty neato introduction. Here's one of my favorites (although most Final Fantasy games are really good about setting things up in medias res.

Man, that brings me back, too. When I was like 8 my friend and I played AoE 1, and I was hooked. I got AoE 2 with the expansion and I played that all the time from like age 9-13.

Tough choice there... Probably gonna have to go with the first half of Halo Wars' intro.
