This was a few days ago, but I searched for it and I didn't see this posted. 

This is a nice little walk down memory lane.  They give a little history of the cutscene and intro in older games like Full Throttle, Syndicate and Red Alert.  He talks about how alot of game developers now are of the opinion that full blown cutscenes tend to break the rhythm or disconnect people from the game world, but how back then that was the goal of the cutscene - to get people involved in the world. Pretty cool stuff. 

^^''  This was interesting and he is right....   10-15 years ago we were all talking how awesome the opening (cutscenes) of a game is and this days we don't care anymore about it;....

PS:  Nyanks are you als a member on GT?

GT...Gametrailers? I might have made an account, but I haven't been on the site in ages......even to look at trailers, lol.

Yeah Gametrailers.. You remember me of someone who also had an HS avatar and I thought his name was aswell Nyanks..

Gametrailers....that place is in ruins. That site use to be so great.

Hm.......you could be right, but it would have been months ago, at least six. And only for a little while. This and Kotaku are my main game places. And IGN, of course. How'd you like that awesome Europe numbers thread. Epic stuff, right there. Rofl

Ah Red Alert

Hmm it can't be you because if I am right the guy I remember was from Portugal;;;And you are from USA...
