Worst game intro ever?

Post by BoringSupreez »

What, in your opinion, is the absolute worst game intro you've ever seen? By intro, I mean the movie that plays before you get to the main menu of a game.

My candidate is DK64. It's so lame, so cheesy, and so loooooong.

DK64's intro is awesome. I used to leave it on just to hear the song over and over.

I don't actually have this game, but this intro is about as entertaining as watching my dog take a shit.

Hell, that's not quite true. Sometimes my dog turns in circles while he's shitting, and that's kinda funny.

This just sucks.

Its especially disappointing when compared to any other Mario sports game, which have always had intros that were, if not exciting, then funny.

Resident Evil

So BAD, it's amazing. Love it!

Can't really think of any intros I hate or anything. I remember thinking they cussed in the DK64 intro as a kid, haha. I just rewatched it and am not sure where I got that idea though.

Get out. Now.

That is the BEST intro ever. Like Popo, I'd leave it on just to listen to the sick beats of the DK Rap.

I can't really think of any intro I really hate or anything, but I guess I was pretty let down by Metal Gear Solid 4's breaking of the awesome opening sequence tradition the series had.

Oh man, I remember that! And I only played the game once as a rental.

GTA 4, where the same four images keep looping over and over to the same repetitive music. You can't skip it either as its the loading screen.
