Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II deserves a place of honor: all greenscreen with B-list actors at best, but it IS LucasArts and the opening cutscene with the first real lightsaber duel since 1983 makes one want to get through the first levels ASAP to start Kyle Katarn wielding his.

Very true, almost forgot about that one. Very similar "B squad" feeling to C&C tiberian sun video. "Hey look, an actor I may have actually seen somewhere before " 🤣

A few not mentioned yet, but I think are good:

Day of The Tentacle "Why don't you come over here so I can punch ya!" .. not as powerful as Full Throttle, but still is awesome.

The Legacy Realm of Terror - Quite spooky CGI intro

Alone in The Dark 1 - A little less spooky because of all the triangles

Test Drive 3 - Very nice photo of the Lamborghini in the forest with that funky sound track

Stunts - Nice twist (both figuratively and literally), also cool sound track

Bad:
Duck Tales - 0.1 FPS animations, and EGA with lousy beeper music

Sinbad - Too lousy beeper music, uninteresting intro

.. and just so you know I'm not against the PC speaker, I find Xenon 2's intro to be quite rocking even if it's just a few credit lines, but the PC speaker Bomb The Bass rendition is awesome!
