Honestly, I've only seen the first three, but they're all so... Stunning, even despite the fact that the graphics are outdated and, mostly, everything is 3D. I left my Suikoden 2 game on, at the title screen, for a while. I came back and reveled at the great opening. The way those 2D pictures flow across the screen, the music... Does anyone else really enjoy these?
I'unno. Maybe I'm just being a nostalgic sap. _________________

Suikoden III's opening was amazing I thought, it was 2D but it was also practically an anime, I wish they'd do something more creative like that again in the newer releases. |

I really liked Suikoden 3's opening too. The music was good, the images were good... it kinda gets me all excited to go play through the game again. _________________ ______ "We're still flying"

I's was decent (the music was definitely the best part), but I really loved the Sega Saturn version. II's and III's are both excellent, with III's being my favorite in the series. I also really enjoyed IV's and V's too (particularly the music in both). Tierkreis' also looks pretty good, although I wish we were getting the vocalized version here in the US. _________________

i enjoyed all the openings from all the games. III seems to be my favorite out of all of them but IV gave it a run for its money. V and II were good and I had the best music for me |

I enjoyed the openings as well. The visual and music was very captivating in the third. |

I I haven't seen I's opening so...
II was okay.
III has an excellent (to me) compilation of both music and images displayed.
IV only the music.
V same as III especially the display of all the Runes in the Suikoden world at the end (SO KOOL!). |

I liked all the openings too!
Suikoden 4's especially.....I'd keep the game on running for awhile just to keep re-watching the opening.
I did the same with Tierkreis (vocalized) opening as well...though not as long cuz my DS' battery would die
If I had to rank em...it'd be 4, Tierkreis (vocalized vers), 2, 3, 5, Tactics, 1
--Tactics & Suiko 1's (not the Sega Saturn opening...the regular ol' one) on the bottom cuz they both had parts that made it [to me] feel more like "gameplay" vids and/or a fancy trailer rather than...an actual "opening"
--I didn't like 5's opening song as much as the ones before it.....
--2 and 3 tied for giving sense of struggle....one of the epic things that defines Suikoden series I think =)
--and 4 and 5 tie cuz of above mentioned....plus I really like the music. _________________

The thing that I liked about S1's intro is, despite the fact that the intro seems like a glorified video of gameplay, it really isn't. It seemed like they just used the game's engine to create cutscenes because of the lack of 3D/Anime capability. Among those scenes, I remember Odessa, Flik, and Humphrey "fighting" in a battle, Barbosa and Windy talking, and Ted, Gremio, and McDohl walking towards the peak of a mountain. _________________

I really liked the music to Suikoden II's opening where it built to a crescendo. I actually have that music on one of my video game compilation music CDs in my car.
Suikoden III was good as well. _________________
