First time I cared was when Halo 3 hit. I thought that thing was sleek.

There are so many I could pick from. All The Red Dead Games with the landscape shots. Any of the Mario Karts. Every Mother game. Super Metroid with its dark eerie opening. Splatoon 3 has a nice look of city life in the hub world. Metriod Primes title screens of dark science experiments and the font are chefs kiss. Any of the 3D Mario games. Oh Banjo Tooie with the camera panning down from the sky to the mountain and Klungo pushing a rock! Metal Gear Solid 3 with the takedown animation. Silent Hill 2 Remake bathroom shot is pretty lonely and dark; a mood setter. Pikmin games have great title screens but I argue 2 is my favorite. Twisted Metal Black had that hard ass song and ominous screen with sweet tooth grinning. Zelda games go as follows Ocarnia of Time, Twilight Princess, Majoras Mask, A Link to The Past, and Wind Waker have great title screens. Getting me in the mood of the adventure I will take part of. Celeste is simply but I like it. Gato Roboto monochrome black and white style is awesome. Oh shit Animal Well has a great title screen with its CRT filter on. Wario Land 4 him driving with the sun setting in the back. Wario Ware DS, and Nintendogs are great interactive title screens. Ape Escape is another good one. Oh shit i forgot about also Astro Bot, Undertale, Jumping Flash, Shadows of The Colossus, Crash Bandicoot, Jak and Daxtar, Pa Rappa The Rapper 2. Also all of those title screens have great music accompanying them. I feel as if I forgetting so many but there are a ton of great title screens!

[Buggy Loop]

Already a ton of good picks already taken, Alien isolation gives me a shiver just hearing it (F that game ) so I'll pick some that's not taken yet

 

[MooMilk2929]

I also think MGS 1 has the best title screen.

 

[Hunter 99]

 

[Dalbajobas]

still the best and prettiest

EDIT: I think I confused your topic with best main menu, Im guessing you're talking about when the game title shows up when playing, if it does.

for that I guess

I want new ME !

[Jigsaah]

Phantom Dust: Post apocalypotic, cryptic, weirdly scientific paranormal and mystic. Just listen to the music...if you can call it that. It's like the remnants of music. You have to listen to it a few times to get all the details.
The electric sounds in the back ground. The metallic "ting" gives it a strange industrial vibe. Knowing and playing the game makes the theme make sense. It's my #1 game of all time.




Bonus: Intro cinematic.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

 

[Gambit2483]

Fun fact: This is actually a violin rendition of Bloodlines from Castlevania: Rondo of Blood

 

[begotten]

 

[Crayon]

Good pull!!!!

I came in to say MGS4 but this was the next thing that jumped to mind.

 

[Player Respawn]

Twisted Metal: Black is an experience in opening movies to title sequence into the main menu and its transitions. Love it.

 

[violence]

I am tripping balls.

 

[Landr300]

 

[Jakk]

I liked these in RDR2, changing depending on where you are.

 

[AeonGaidenRaiden]

Got scared every time I load my game:

 

[BeardSpike]

 

[Flabagast]

THE WIND IS PUSHING MEEEE~

When DD2 didn't have any song like this, I knew I would be in for a disappointment.

 

[Seyken]

When DD2 didn't have any song like this, I knew I would be in for a disappointment.

Yeah, it was pure soul.

 

[EruditeHobo]

 

[EruditeHobo]

And of course some utter classics...

 

[Hudo]

Lich King was peak wow. Stopped playing shortly after Cataclysm. Good times...

 

[Mattdaddy]

Can't be beat. I hear this, and i am in 07 instantly.

Fuck yeah. Every ME title screen was just a banger.

This one is my favorite but they were all so good. ME3 felt pretty epic too

 

[Signalis]

Silent Hill 3's title screen. Absolutely haunting and disturbing.

 

[DaciaJC]

My favorite would probably be CoD: Finest Hour. I spent many an afternoon as a kid sitting at this menu, just contemplating and letting the imagination go wild.




The Total War series also has some good ones.

 

[TerribleAtThisGame]

Signalis has probably my fav title screen for games released in the last few years.

I'm replaying it right now and totally forgot how cool that screen is with the eye following your selection.

 

[TerribleAtThisGame]

Just replayed and still stop at the title screen every time. It's so good.

 

[March Climber]

Not the best, just good standouts. I think the best have already been mentioned here.
