Decide! I nominate either Brood war or Dawn of War, both are cool in a "kick in the nuts" kind of way, with lots of stuff going boom!

i can't remember brood war enough and haven't played insurrection. but dawn of war on the other hand - that intro is bloody awesome. i can't get enough of it. my favourite bit is still when the dreadnaut first appears [img]smile.gif[/img]
i like the diablo 2 intros as well (oc and lod). blizzard know how to make nice looking rendered cutscenes

Red Alert 2, Tiberian Sun & Firestorm , Might and Magic 6 , 7 , 8 . Got some cool ones.
Oh, Final Fantasy 8 opening scene is really cool. Plus the music is great as well. |

Dawn of war Definetly...
Punisher being close second (has more to do with my geekiness than it being good I guess... [img]smile.gif[/img] ) Also Icewind Dale 2 is kind of cool |

Fallout 2 for sure.

Most games just have the advert as the beginning cinematic -- even so, some are nice -- like Episode III, Jade Empire and the KOTOR games.
I always liked BG2, even though it's drawings more than cinema. Medal of Honor Frontline had a great beginning scene storming the beach at normandy. Yes, Dawn of War rocks. I also like weird ones, like the old Axis & Allies game that included lots of WWII footage. |
