Yeah, I don't know why people complain about this intro, I, for one, love it.
The only beef I have is the visible crosshair when the deckgun is viewed at one point in the video (:rotfl

. But other than that it's great.
John Milton is a wonderful poet. I'm still a Junior in high school (laugh at the young'n) but I'm in a college-level Advanced Placement literature class and did a month long unit on Milton. Also, Milton was a highly religious man (a puritain, to be exact, linked to Cromwell and the reformation) and being a "reformed" baptist as I am, I'm highly drawn to his works. I definately think he's talking about the final triumph passing of death into life due to holy salvation mentioned often in the Bible. Talk about it cynically if you want to...but it's a great poem nonetheless, and I share his views.
So yeah. WONDERFUL intro, UBI Romania!! I nearly passed a cat from sheer joy when I heard the poem after install.
