Video Game Cutscenes -

[Bob Page]

Well, We all like playing games and we also have our favorite cutscenes from said games. Share what your favorite cutscene is from any game and why.

This was my favorite from Starcraft: Brood War because it really showed the grimdarkness of the series.

For some reason I really like the Dragon God scene from Chrono Cross. It's just so weird. If you showed it to someone who never played the game they'd be WTFing all over the place.

This cutscene has stuck with me for pretty much as long as I can remember.

I think it was thanks to this game that I was able to understand the concepts of slavery, why it's bad, and how big corporations can mess things up if left to do whatever they want. If only at a base level.

The game as a whole is a masterpiece in my opinion. By itself though, I'd say that this cutscene is probably one of my most favorite pieces of animation in general. And hey! It's aged spectacularly!

My favorite series, and probably the most badass way to introduce the game, introduces us to Kain's current actions.

Tied with this:

The cutscenes after beating the final boss in .hack//QUARANTINE has still stick with me since the first time I ever saw it.

Watching all your party members suddenly get taken out(and their players going into comas because of it) in a last-ditch attack by the boss, only for your character to run full tilt at the boss in a last ditch attack of his own, dodging attacks like crazy and doing a skidding leap toads the boss to finish it off...so much hype.

Even though they're FMVs, I really do like the nostalgia of it and it shows how brutal House Harkonnen can be.

You get a Semper Fi just for being another human being that actually played .hack//IMOQ. It was really lately when I started replaying them that I realized that almost all of the cutscenes were rendered ingame, which really surprised me because I always thought with them being able to be replayed from the desktop menu they were pre-rendered.

Two words: Aeris dies. I never did like that pink hippie twat.

"DIE MONSTER! YOU DON'T BELONG IN THIS WORLD!" 'nough said.

When that was a joke in one of the Mumbles, I went, grabbed the audio of that from the Mumble of all things, and for a while when my computer would start up that specific version started my day. Good times.
