How a game begins is extremely important to me so im wandering what is your favourite opening scene or introduction to a game on the PS3?

I love the opening cinematic from Dead Space 1 when your in the spaceship and you see the USG Ishimura for the first time, its a gorgeous cinematic they made space look pretty

I didnt know alot about the game when i bought it but the beginning cutscene really got me interested.

I'm not sure it's my favourite intro, but one that always sticks in my mind is Ultima VI on the C64 - very impressive for the time.

Although, I have to agree Dead Space 1 intro is particularly good.  Doesn't prepare you for the horror you are about to experience in the slightest though!

i thought Deus EX - human revolution had a cool intro, i know thats a recent game, had it as a free download being a PS+ memeber, can't play it now tho as it's expired lol. kinda fizzled out though as it went on Tbh, too many choices lol

it had a jaw-drop wow factor which i haven't had in a while for an intro to a game..

Personally it will always be mass effect 2 for me. It's just epic

The intro to uncharted 2. Absolutely epic and really got me excited to get started with the game.

God Of War 3 for me, the opening cinematic wIth the titans climbing Mt Olympus totally blew my mind

Heavy Rain.

I mean, taking a shower, juggling, putting on clothes... I was at the edge of my seat the WHOLE FRICKIN' TIME!

Just thinking of it gives me shivers...

Metal Gear Solid 2.

I agree, the opening can make a game for me. Some of them start off interesting but painfully slow (Kingdom Hearts) and others are just like insane action right off the bat (God of War). 

I WOULD say MGS4 just for pure cinematic value but I really like the Ratchet A Crack in Time opening for some reason, I mean it explains the backstory well but in a funny and entertaining way, introduces the characters well and really make it accesible to both long time fans and newcomers which is good direction IMO.
