I really like watching the cinematics/cutscenes from games that I played- I somehow find them to be a good substitute for actually playing the game again. Don't ask how; it's just the way the Nekro works.
When I was five years old, I remember that watching a cinematic would actually make me want to play the game. An excellent example would be Warcraft 3- Reign of Chaos. I hardly found the gameplay interesting; at least not like the story and its protagonists. The orc ending movie remains truly one of the most incredible scene I've watched in a game- the quality itself (lip syncing for the win!) along with its meaning for the storyline.
Anyway, enough of Warcraft.
Now that I am ten years old and finally a responsible beer-buying, billard-playing, panties-stealing adult, I still get aroused by cool-looking cinematics. Can't help it I guess, though I will check gameplay to see if I can play the game without too much inconvenience.
I honestly found diablo's (2) cinematics just about alright. Diablo transforming from wanderer to demonic form was pretty cool and Baal's speech followed by the barbarian-explosion skill was also very entertaining. Nothing mind-blowing however, least ways not for me.
Hmm...what was the purpose of this thread already...? Oh ya, I want to know what your favorite cinematics/cutscenes are- doesn't have to be CGI.
Lately I've been browsing this site(Blur studio) and came across some sweet beating material.
I'll list a couple of my favorites to launch the thread- there are loads really but can't list them all in one post.
