There's better cut scenes from that game, one involving a unicorn in particular.

If there was ever a time I contemplated rubbing one out to a video game character...

That whole sequence is one of the most epic, most cinematic sequences ever in a game. I had a save before it that I never overwrote, I went back and played it many times

Take your pick from any of the SC2 campaigns, but my personal favorite:

Some other good ones off the top of my head:

ME3 - Death of Mordin Also a big fan of the ME2 Intro.

Halo 2 - Cairo Station

Gears 3 - Dom's Death

Bioshock Infinite Ending

Diablo 3 - Act 2

May edit with more if I think of them.

Not necessarily a cut scene and certainly not the greatest graphics by today's standards but the opening to FF8 considering the graphics at the time was pretty great.

Not the greatest, but my favoritesare from HL2 and HL2:E2. Just because the game sort of changed my life in '05.

The funeral cut scene in MGS5 was pretty good.

I don't know if it's the GOAT but the nuke actually going off and killing you in COD4 was surreal. I was watching someone playing it on 360 in a small room crowded with a bunch of other people when it first came out. We were all just shocked and completely silent for what seemed like forever.
It's probably the FF7 intro for me though since that made me get a PS1.

How has no one mentioned any of the command and conquer cut scenes? Those are the gold standard imo

The opening of Red Alert 2 comes to mind as a good one. Only one I can remember relatively well, but I did play C&C when I was like 10.

I was surprised at how good the final battle and cut scene with Doc Oc was in Spiderman

So I hate cutscenes for the most part.

But Spiderman did them very well.

Literally the patch 8.2.5 cinematic for Retail WoW.

There's literally nothing better in terms of quality.

I know they were used for the trailers as well, but the expansions for Star Wars: The Old Republic have had amazing intros and cutscenes.

I'm not sure what mine would be but it did get me going through the old FF cutscenes. Watched all of this: LINK

That scene of Zidane running out the petrified forest and Blank chunking him that scroll blew 10 year old me away back then lol, still legit. Also, the ff8 scene with squall running on the beach from that big mech crab and quistis popping up from the sub with a big machine gun turret to save him was the shite
