This list needs more Final Fantasy VIII. I never minded that the cutscenes were unskippable on PS1, I would have never skipped any of them anyway, especially not the opening cinematic with Liberi Fatali. That song and One-Winged Angel made me take Latin in high school.

FFVIII opening cutscene is amazing but they are talking about cutscenes that start before you press "new game". So ff8 opening cutscene wouldn't count in this category. But if they do another video on best opening cutscenes ff8 better be there.

Something that I appreciate with Persona is the music is amazing and SOMEHOW they one up themselves with the updated extended version. Persona 3 went hard with Burn My Dread then went Harder with FES's intro. 4 went hard with Pursuing My True Self then HARDER with Shadow World from Golden. Lastly 5 went hard with Wake Up, Get Up, Get Out There but good GOD Did it go harder with Colors Flying High for Royal

The opening sequence of Elden Ring is amazing it describes how the titular Elden Ring was shattered and how it's fragments were claimed by the demigod children of Queen Marika. It then goes on to show the characters who could potentially become the new Elden Lord like Sir Gideon Ofnir, Fia the deathbed companion and the loathsome Dung Eater to name a few examples.

KILLZONE 2 and THE CHRONICLES OF RIDDICK, also MAG and DEMON'S SOULS for Ps3. and PERSONA 5 as already mentioned in the video. Those are just off the top of my head, and often, i watched them so much i had the words memorized if the intro cinematics had dialogue. ☺

I don't know if this counts since it's an intro that plays when you load a game file, but one of my favorites is the intro for Wild Arms 3. Not only is it good, but there's four different versions depending on how far you get in the game, there's an instrumental version with whistling instead of lyrics, and the vocals are sometimes in Japanese rather than English.

Dropping onto an alien world watching pods get blown out of the sky while radio chatter is filled with screams and gunfire only to fall silent as you smash through a roof. A few more you should check out . The red alert 2 intro . The original rainbow 6 cinematic the music is nice and everytime I see it I get flashbacks to playing it on the ps1 back in the late 90s and lastly the original battlefield Vietnam intro not the dlc for bad company 2 Vietnam but the stand alone game that came out just after bf1942

Wild Arms (1 and 3) and Final Fantasy (VIII and X) are the main ones that spring to mind, mostly because of the incredible music, if I'm honest.

I'll just choose one: Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. That has the best piece of music, because it's so ambient. It explores Hyrule Field as the ocarina plays. I haven't skipped this in the entire time I have owned the game. Literally, day one player and could never bring myself to skip. The nostalgia of it both excites and breaks my heart every time I boot it up.

I have a bunch of others, but I must mention Majora's Mask. There are several different sections that can play in different orders, but they all have such a calm and slice of life sort of feeling to them, watching the residents go about their lives. Then the music twists and sours as the full horror of the Moon's glaring face is revealed, with the logo fading into place over its eye. I just think it's neat.

Final Fantasy X AND X-2 (yes, yes). Beyond the great openings (who can say no to watching "Yuna" sing a catchy song in X-2), there is sentimental factor of playing with my daughter when she bought the games for me on Father's Day decades ago. Not one second can be skipped. We still play to this day (for the 100th time) even though she is in college and I am middle aged and balding :-)

@@jmgriffee it turned me right off initially. After many years, I finally pushed through the pop madness and enjoyed the game immensely! These days I find the metal/sports sections from the first game equally annoying... growth, right?

The Chrono Trigger anime intro is this for me. For one thing, I wouldn't skip the regular intro because of that amazing theme song, but then add in an anime and it's unskippable.

Tekken 5 for me. Asuka on her bike, a very cool song (Sparking), graphics I still can't get over that they were that good on PS2, etc.
