Intros, cutscenes, trailers, whatever.


I'll start.

World in Conflict

Mechwarrior 2 - a real classic

And pretty much all Warhammer (40k) movies so far, especially

Not as good as the first one, but damn, they make good movies.

Stylish. I think we need more actual songs in games. The Mass Effect ending song was nice too.

This is incredibly sappy of me, and admitting it makes me feel like some silly 14 year old anime fangirl, but I've always loved this particular scene. *sighs dreamily*

I liked the Alpha Centauri game, even if it was just for the nifty cutscenes from completing a research project.

Can't have one of these threads without the classic Quake 2 into.

If only Amy Hennig would finish the series.

Also, when was Quake 2 released? I never played it, but the intro seems very similar to an episode of Reboot (the first episode, I think).

God yes, it would only take one more game too. It's almost all wrapped up.

To make such awesome games with a great story then just leave it hanging..

The Legacy of Kain series seems to be one of those major landmarks in gaming that I completely missed out on.

I never played the first one, played it from Soul Reaver onwards. That's when it got good, apparently. I enjoyed all the games. Blood Omen was a bit meh but it cleared up a lot about the storyline.

The only bit it hasn't explained is the motive behind the machinations of the elder god who tricked the ancient vampires into worshipping him and started the war between them and the other guys whom eventually cursed them with the blood hunger.

The guy who did the awesome voice of the elder god died though. He was a crazy-good voice actor.

Yeah, you can pick up pretty easily from Soul Reaver. I think most of the important details from Blood Omen get filled in as you go, so all you really miss are neat throwbacks in Soul Reaver 2.

And you can skip Blood Omen 2 altogether, it's an alternate timeline version of the world set a few centuries in the future. It brings very little to the storyline overall and it's a pretty bad game to boot.

Sucks that Tony Jay died. His voice made me giddy like a schoolgirl

I played one Soul Reaver game but I forget which one it was. It was pretty cool and at the end one of the dudes had to die but the other one refuses to do it or something. So he tricked him into doing it by possessing the final bosses body or something. It was pretty cool.
