Ah -- the time when Origin Systems *wasn't* a sweat shop for EA's bigger franchises.

Speaking of which: Privateer 2: The Darkening.
Part 1

Part 2

A bit cheesy dialog but -- meh.

Yes -- that *is* Clive Owen -- when he was still a BBC actor.

Freespace (posted it before, but it's that epic.)

Freespace 2 isn't quite as epic, but still good :

Points to anyone who can spot the music samples in there that Bungie also used in h2 :o

Starcraft : Brood War

Also, the game's ending is too epic not to go here as well.

Nice vid steal thar mistar :(

It should be noted that both Freespace games emit incredible amounts of epic; even moreso with its community's work on its source code (known as the Freespace SCP.)

Example of said epicness :

^ Random footage of the game with the SCP enhancements.


K, shameless game plug ends here.

Mech4 intro, on the grounds that it's battlemechs in live-action.

Descent 1, 2, and 3 intros, on the grounds that it's a fucking awesome series. Descent 1 was too badass to have an intro movie (it was just a longer-than-normal mission briefing, 1994 games didn't have too many intro movies) until the playstation port though; however imo the simple briefing was better than the rendered one below.

Yea -- Dark Forces 2 indeed had a good intro... albeit -- cheesy.

Edit: Wow almost forgot about MechCommander. One of the few nearly non-cheesy LiveAction cutscenes.
