I've never felt such charm and wistfulness for any other game world as I did when I first watched this intro play.

Woah, that's totally different from the Typing of the Dead opening for it.

Konami during the PS2 gen had the best cinematic direction when it came to its developmental talent.

Post by: Mods Help on January 24, 2016, 10:38:47 PM: one of the best things about the revival of Japanese console gaming is the possibility of amazing intro's, but this time in hd. Last gen was sort of lacking, but Japan can do it this time, y'all. :noah

You were thiiiiiiiis close to saying whimsy, weren't you? :heh

I'll contribute some of my own favorites to this glorious thread later :lawd

I have no shame in using whimsy where appropriate. Wistfulness much more accurately describes the emotion I get from FFCC.

Deadly Premonition's intro was next level despite the complete lack of budget.

pretty all much, the game broke too much ground.

This is a next level intro, not from a game tho:

Lost Odyssey opening was freaking amazing.

game was beast as fuck and is what sold me an Xbeast 360 :lawd

Title: Re: Sweetest opening cutscene ever
Post by: The Sceneman on January 25, 2016, 02:37:43 AM: Yeah Lost Odyssey 2 would be something to get really excited about. A shame Mistwalker was just some MS moneyhat project which didn't get shit for sales. Well, it made me buy a 360, so MS win?

Even in 2016 The Pest is still too ahead of the curve imo. Waiting for Idiocracy irl where that kind of shit is Oscar bait

Post by: Steve Contra on January 25, 2016, 02:35:49 PM: Nothing will ever top Chrono Trigger for me. The amount of shit they put in the intro that looked amazing but made no fucking sense. Futuristic city in the clouds? Sure why not. Dinosaurs? Ok. Haunted castle? You got it. Dragon tank? No problem. Robots? We got those. Giant skeletons? Right here. Space ship? You didn't think there'd be a spaceship in the game but in fact there's several. Motorcycle racing in the distant future? Bet you didn't see that coming after you're on trial in the past.

Fucking amazing.
