Take a look at Persona 4 Golden’s intro movie

Intro movies for video games don’t get much respect.  We watch them once, maybe twice, when the game is brand new.  Then we skip right over them.  The only other times we seem them is when we get a phone call while booting up a game, and we let them run over and over while we try to get our parents and/or significant others off the phone.  Come on, we’ve all done it.  No need to plead ignorance.  But the recently unveiled intro movie for the upcoming Persona 4 Golden is so bright, fun, and just plain weird that it might become the first intro you never skip.  Read on to take a look for yourself.

Persona 4 Golden is the upcoming Playstation Vita remake of the Playstation 2 classic roleplaying game, Persona 4.  In addition to remastered visuals, new characters, new story elements, and additional voiced dialogue, the game features all new anime cutscenes.  The opening cinematic offers a glimpse of this anime style, accompanied by a brand new song by long time Persona composer, Shoji Meguro.  But enough exposition.  Watch this snazzy bit of cinematic sugar below…

Pretty snazzy, right?  I mean… there’s a dancing guy with a giant bucket on his head.  And a weird blue bear in pajamas who can open his head like a pez dispenser.  Can you tell I don’t know all that much about the Persona series?  But this intro makes me want to learn more.  I’ll get the chance when Person 4 Golden is released this fall.  Keep an eye on the official Atlus website for more news.

But that hasn’t stopped him from developing unhealthy obsessions with such modern franchises as Halo and Mass Effect. Just don’t tell him how long it’s been since the original Metroid was released. His aging heart can’t take the shock.
