%%* The opening of ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeed: Undercover'', which is a parody of Hollywood action movies.
* The intro movie of ''VideoGame/TheCurseOfMonkeyIsland'' plays with this: The camera zooms towards the titular Monkey Island... then swerves to zoom in on a drifting bumper car with our hero.
* In ''VideoGame/{{Myst}}'' it's ''almost'' the opening shot of the entire game... as seen in [[PortalPicture a book]].
%%* The opening of ''VideoGame/FrontMissionEvolved''.
* The opening of ''VideoGame/SonicAdvance 2'' turns this into a ''fun'' landfall shot that whips up to the sky to reveal the logo. The landfall itself is towards a roller coaster that isn't featured anywhere else in the game.
