Default Best Game Cutscene/Intro Movie?

What is the best intro/cutscene you have seen? (linky if you can find one, so we can see it too )

Hmmm, tough call Dowly...tough call...

One of the classics is probably the intro to FFVII, probably one of the most overrated FFs, but it's a good intro:
(the remake, I know)

The intro to RA2 was awesome too:


And, although not an intro, the Battle of New York in World in Conflict cutscene was pretty damn awesome:


Also, these cutscenes from the Soviet side:



Also, the intros for War of the Worlds...because I'm kinda bias:




Final Fantasy IX...you kinda have to play the game to understand this, but it was a pretty big "Oh...plot twist." moment:


Medal of Honour - Conversational German :


Team Fortress 2 - Meet the Spy:


I'm sure there are others, but I can't recall them at the moment.

This Wrathgate cut scene happens after a quest chain in WoW's lich king expansion

Oh, yeah.

The first part of the . The second part is too cliche to be awesome, but it does feature a gnome (Or not) in a fancy suit.

And for a cutscene, !

And of course, from the first C&C, Kanes exit was pretty awesome.

Intro to Fighter's Anthology, a pretty good (if a bit simple survey sim).


And of course, my favorite ending to my all-time favorite game, Homeworld.

Pretty much all the cutscenes from the Homeworld series fit in this thread...

Assasins Creed 2 ending was one of the best I have seen.

As Oberon said, the WiC New York cutscene was just stunning.

Also the Battle of Ostagar from Dragon Age Origins could rival LOTR, just awesome, it always makes me shiver slightly when they charge with all the arrows flying through the air, and the music is brilliant!

FOR FERELDEN!


Not really cutscenes but:

The 30 Seconds to Mars 'This Is War' trailer for DAO is pretty good too




The Heavy Rain Gamescom trailer, the music on this ('Mars' from Audio Network) is quite frankly one of the most moving pieces of music I've ever heard.

My favour intros mostly come from Warhammer games,

I find there quality unmatched. Dispite how the game turns out there vids tend to be awesome.

Warhammer DOW

Warhammer DOWII

Warhammer Mark of Chaos

There just damn good.

Its hard to pick because I like many classic ones too. Problem is there graphics are low budged to todays standards.
