Hi,

didn't find a thread about this here so I'll start one. Today had some nostalgic minute and watched again one of my favorite game intros that are still incredible to me.

Here are some of best intros I really love:

I'm sure your list is also interesting so post 'em here! Why today's games don't have intros? Also, seeing these I still think these games are still the best!

Oh I loved that intro, I watched it a lot of times, now it gives me goosebumps

I'll add:

Rally Masters: Michelin Race of Champions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLFQJljzfTA
Carmageddon II: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyrYDSwD_gk (looks lame now but nostalgia )

Here was my beginning with cars
Grand Prix 2 - 1995 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrurD6Ol-FM
Need for Speed 2 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kMYEEpTPXM
and more, but these two was my first keyboard <----

Carmageddon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GyWFX0FPhOA

I attribute this intro to getting me into metal.

Never have cared about intros too much,but this one has stuck in my memory as one of the best: NHL 2000

Also the original first PlayStation intro was something special that time.

Mechwarrior 2 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-X3GD0UnBCk

I remember playing this years ago and wondering if actual playable games would ever look as the intro.

lol.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5txGhuDmPjY - GT2 Intro for the EU version. I kind of liked this one that much mainly because the song is so fitting to it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17LyCak-t7w - V-Rally 2, PSX version had this same intro as well.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aO_nEhqykvc - Crash Bandicoot 1

Another World (Amiga)

I'll remember this intro forever from my childhood.

OMG...SHOCK HORROR...And you call yourselves gamers, and you haven't mentioned these total timeless classics

Last Ninja 3 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fyH8f-bW-FY

War....Never been so much fun...LOL https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PiYuq6Ac3a0

They all follow each other LOL https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnR8DIR5Rx4

Shadow of the Beast II - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INDfzMiA-F4

Mobil1 rally and Toca2 intro in the same post, add Colin McRae Rally 2 into to that and it's end of topic.

Le Mans 24 Hours Intro

ToCA Race Driver 3 - Intro

ToCa Race Driver 2 - Intro

And honestly, the best ever intro. Ever.

Intro video to R4: Ridge Racer Type 4

PSX: F1 2000 by EA Sports

Gran Turismo 2 (Japanese version) - http://youtu.be/NC2qKy-WMf4

I think you had to unlock that, or it was just an extra video. I just love the music.

Microprose GP500 - http://youtu.be/5ZV6XfLvhmw

No doubt the Gran Turismo Intros were the best in time, especially the first.

But I like the NFS Underground 1 Intro, as well. Remembering how I get scared by the THX screen and my subwoofers where on full volume.

So I'm not the only one,Kid!

\o/ I played NHL 2000 for a few years on PS1 with my friends a lot and i always had to watch it, when i turned it on. These days, when EA still knew how to make a game.

Arguably the weirdest game I ever knew:

Vangers

and other classics from my childhood

Rally Racing 97

Worms 2

Colin McRae Rally

Grand Theft Auto 2 & 3
