19 Best Intros In Sports Video Games History

17. FA Premier League Stars

This was the first football game that featured licensed kits. That was a big deal at the time, but the intro, starring all of the famous Premier League players - with an especially long and successful sequence featuring David James of all people - was a big deal as well. This provided a promise of something big, something important, as now you could play as your idols in their correct apparel!

There's a lot of passion and energy in the clip, and it looks more like a television promo than video game intro - a first in football video games.
