    Some great ones already mentioned (particularly Fallout and Mechwarrior 2), but some of my favourites don't seem to have been:

    The misrepresentative action-comic stylings of the first UFO/X-com

    The incredibly cheesy yet equally enjoyable opening FMV and bad pop song to Soul Blade on the PSX

    I also really liked the intro to Terminator 2 on the c64 at the time. A slow pan up a huge picture of a T-800 endoskeleton on a fiery background with the iconic duh-dun duh-dun DUN music playing. Sheer class.

    lol Damn I love that game. The best point and click ever made and the intro was simply bizarre but brilliant! :D

    Wipeout 1 and Wipeout 2. Starwing on the SNES

    I remember being blown off my feet by the intro to Panzeer Dragoon on the Saturn.

    I also loved the menu screen for Sonic CD with it's superfast 3D sky :D Great bit of music there too...

    Shadow of the Beast 2 had an amazing and imaginative animation sequence to kick things off and really took my breath away when I first saw it.
