Best video game intro/attract mode video ever?

[samuraigaiden]

I was testing some old PS2 discs and I came upon this masterpiece of video game introductions



Everything about this is fucking A+

Is this the best opening video ever in a videogame? I believe so.

This was on a PS1 demo disc and I rewatched this 10 million times. Never actually played the game.

The original homeworld intro was glorious at setting the world and mood of the entire ground breaking experience that was to be the game.
