This got me hyped up for the English translation patch (out soon hopefully):

Been meaning to bring this topic back recently...

I like this one mainly for the fact that there's so much detail put into the White Glint's mechanical work and design, and the cg is so high quality, that it almost makes this giant, lanky robot seem realistic and plausible.

Vyse made me think of Outlaws inadvertently by mentioning Sunset Riders in another topic, so this popped into my head.
Good God, this game had great style, writing, and voice acting. And this intro exemplifies it.

Thanks for digging up this topic, I was about to go find it because I loved this opening. Don't know, its probably been posted already.

Never actually played this, but damn, the intro is savage as hell, especially for a PS1 SRPG.
All-out massacre and an implied gang-rape.
I bet Henry loves it.
Makes me really intrigued to play the rest of the game though.

*Vandal Hearts 2 intro*

I'm one of those rare few that thinks that Vandal Hearts 2 is better than no. 1...need to go back and keep playing it though, never did finish it. Did you know that the creator of Rocket Knight series is the creator of the Vandal Hearts series also? (Nobuya Nakazato, in case you're curious). The battle system is rather unique for a Strategy game, as the units move as you are and vice versa. So it's a bit of a guessing game where the enemy units will move to. The story was good up until where I played, but the intro was never bettered, so far anyway, no idea if it gets any better.

Anyway, I popped in Suikoden II the other day (still cannot believe my luck with acquiring this game at such a great price) and wow, one of the best game intros I've ever seen, no doubt about it. The music is absolutely fantastic.

I like that they tried something different and innocent and charming. This is so impressive to me for the time.
