Favorite introduction videos

Intro videos in RPG's are definitely always a plus in a RPG when well done.

This is the list of my favorite ones.

FF8 (the most impactating for me)
Chrono Cross
Breath of Fire 4
Legend of Dragoon
FF9
FF7

Which are yours?

FFVIII was probably the best, but FFX also had a great one (which I saw at the Cinema first ^_^). The One for FFXI is also pretty good... even if it does look about as "Lord Of The Rings" as they could make it :happy:

Yeah, the FFXI is pretty nice, although it didn't cause any impact on me or anything to say "whoa, amazing" unlike the one at FFVIII

FFX's was my first PS2 game, and whenever I saw it, I just thought to myself those were the most outstanding graphics I had ever seen. But the video itself was not impressing, although later on you find out why that scene and all so it makes it pretty cool.... but definitely nothing like FFVIII's intro. No other game has got close to it. (the closest one to my taste is that of Chrono Cross, I think that the music is spectacular)

Well, that was more of a prologue than an intro video, if you know what I mean. (But then to think about it, FF VIII's video I'm talking about would be the same thing...)

I forgot about that video, and hell yeah, it was freaking awsome, specially when Auron appeared (I thought he was the bad guy)

yeah... Aurons appearance really set him up as a badass character: if you saw a massive ball of water attacking people, theres a good chance you wouldn't take a "oh, good morning sin" attitude ^_^

I gotta say FFVIII too. The first time I saw it I was like "holly sh*t this is going to be like a freakin movie"

Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete
Lunar 2: Eternal Blue

I liked Breath of Fire IV.. but I thought the opening could have been better.
.. most memorable FMV's.

The video for FFVII and CC are awesome.

I first saw this video while at my favorite electronics store and I was completely amazed. I was dying for the next FF to come out. That was why I got my PSX because Sqaure went to Sony.

CC has an awesome song to go along with the cut scenes.

Suikoden III's and FFVIII...opening videos left a huge impression and really kicked started my way in beating the games!

FFX, the detail on the blitzball sphere and all the detail on sin and the water, and ultra cool Auron of course.

Iki	Nov 24th, 2002 06:03 PM

The Suikoden III opening is great, although the music isn't that good, the manga styled shots are great

I haven't seen many RPG opening movies, but I have seen the one from Kingdom Hearts and it's awesome and the music is really cool too. :ghost: :ghost:
