    The Last of Us’s opening scene really hits all the feels.

    Oblivion for having Patrick Stewart and then killing him off in the tutorial.

  3. garrethstathum

    Super Mario Bros is like older than everyone yet everyone knows the opening level

  4. kemosabe19

    Bioshock’s opening was also pretty cool.

    Skyrim and Oblivion are some of my faves though.

    Uncharted 2. Hanging from a dangling train on a cliff

  7. GlennHaven

    Skyrim’s intro is only iconic because of how much of a meme it became.

    Disco Elysium

    The opening after the prologue is very funny

    Oblivion.

    Waking up in your cell and walking through the sewers with the God damn emperor of the empire was so much better.

    Oblivion is more memorable to me due to Patrick Stewart.

    “Find him and close shut the jaws… of Oblivion” cue theme tune.

    Fable is a good one for me, starting off as a child then growing into a teen then an adult later.

    I love FF7 so the Bombing Mission sticks out to me so much.

    FF7.

    Daaaaaaaaaa, dadada, da da dada…

    “War. War never changes.”

    Rise and Shine, Mr Freeman. Rise and… Shine.

    Half-Life 2. I haven’t played that game in years and I remember the G-Man’s speech nearly by heart.

    NES Zelda; it’s dangerous to go alone.

    Warcraft 3 and Portal come to mind. Cyberpunk 2077 has some really good openers. Of course, they are irrelevant to the rest of the story, but still as way to get the player excited, the game’s 3 openers do a fantastic job in that sense

    Far Cry 3- Do you know the definition of insanity?

  19. coysmithy

    Cortana, all I need to know is did we lose them?

    Personal favorite of mine is Ocarina of Time. Especially the fairy fly by cam into the village 🙂

    Doom 2016

    You wake up naked chained to a stone slab and break free before promptly crushing the skull of a zombie. Then, a few tutorial rooms later you get to hear Doom Guys amazing response when Dr Hayden explains why the risk versus reward was worth it.

    I swear to God this has been posted like 5 times in the last 24 hours.

    Why.

    GTA San Andreas, the “Ah shit, here we go again” meme speaks for itself

    Fallout 3, like others have said stepping out of the Vault was a transcendent experience, especially if you had never played the previous games so you didn’t know what to expect

    Double Dragon. Guy casually walks up to your girlfriend and punches her in the baby maker. Picks her up and walks off. Game on.

  26. Anongamerhuman

    Batman Arkham City opening prison sequence was perfect imo

  27. Dogengar

    Bioshock
    Arkham City
    Uncharted 2
    I could go on.
