Best PS1 game intro, ever!

[Crabby Shrimper]

Heard a piece of music today (Intermezzo, from Cavalleria Rusticana) and it made me think back to playing Actua Soccer 3 on the PS1. The game itself wasn't that great, but, in my opinion, it did contain probably the best opening sequences to a video game ever.

Anyone know of any better?

The opening sequence of WipEout 2097 with the remix of FSOL's We have Explosive was pretty good.

Brilliant. That used to send shivers down my spine whenever I played on that.

Crap game, but my favourite intro from the PS1:

FF VIII

Wasted? Tcah! Why meet real people when you can play Final Fantasy?!

Didn't think much of FF8 however I wasted many an hour on 7 in my mis-spent youth :p

Not really a fan of the games but the PS1 intro to Metal Gear Solid was pretty darn (long) and impressive.

And the original Resident Evil, such killer dialogue! "Is this.....Chris's Blood???"

FIFA98 Road to the World Cup was always a favourite of mine, with the Blur Song 2 intro
