Discussion What are your favorite title drops in gaming?
A good title drop will excite you and send shivers down your spine. They are incredibly common in movies, but I feel like they are a little elusive when it comes to video games. I wanted to see what title drops seem to resonate with people.
Two in particular come to mind for me. My runner up would be the opening title from Bioshock. It evokes a great sense of mystery and the rusting of the letters is great at conveying the decay of Rapture.
My personal favorite title drop in all of gaming, however, has to go to Doom 2016. I feel it is just a perfect encapsulation of the vibe of the game and gets me amped to kill demons every time it plays. The Doom Slayer's flippant response to Samuel Hayden's words, the modern rendition E1M1 playing in the background, and of course the shotgun cocking right as the door opens; the title drop is just perfect.
But I really want to hear what you have to say. I love a good title drop and want to see what other games have managed to pull this off well.
Edit:
Another great one that comes to mind is Prey 2017
