Title Screens - Which stand out to you?

Might not look like much from screens, but Kane and Lynch 2's were awesome. changed scenery depending on where you are in the game, and for the time the filters and camera / screen effects made them look very realistic. Just fit the vibe of the game so well
Yeah, these are super cool. Loved the entire presentation of this game. It's a shame the gameplay didn't match up to the slick presentation.

FFVII is the best game of all time, but I still do not understand what the hell is going on in the image... the Buster Sword clearly isn't shoved inside the ground (look at the shadows...) - but it can't possibly be floating either? It's ridiculous!
Iconic IMO. I am of course more than a little biased :3
This so much. I wouldn't consider it the most iconic (that would probably be OoT), but damn, I remember seeing this and thinking "Damn. My bad". Such a glorious way to create immersion.
Also shoutouts to Metroid Prime 3. I never completed that game but I loved the way they dealt with the menu screen.
My man. Don't know if it's been mentioned before but this is my second go-to
Goosebumps everytime.
BUT I NEED AN EXPLANATION :D
Which is it?!
It's just floating in the aether waiting for you to pick it up and begin your adventure

Agreed, one of the best.
I feel like hardly anyone mentions Cuphead's callback to this screen (maybe I just read the wrong things, or it's so obvious that it's not worth mentioning):

The crazy thing is I've seen that and thought it looked similar but didn't think anything of it. It's very clearly a reference when they're put next to each other 0_0
Yes! That alignment is so satisying. (even though that trapped lady computer is kind of stupid)
We Love Katamari
How could I forget, it's one of my favorites. You can fly around as the prince and move the letters from the title. And you can listen to the best title music while doing so.
Here's a video [gamegrumps, was the first I could find] of how they play around with the prince and the letters. https://youtu.be/IWnasbn6hBk?t=1m27s
Just mute them and listen to the greatness of OVERTURE II instead.

I spent quite a long time idling on this title screen...
I believe the reason should be obvious.
Also this one. Dearly Beloved is such an amazing song.

Some of the most iconic ones already got posted, so I'm going with Chaos Legion. I still remember when I first played the game when it came out and just watched the title screen for several minutes. It set the mood for the rest of the game (for me at least) and for whatever reason it did stay with me for all these years.
One of my favorite tracks of all time. Just beautiful!

I loved some screens in Half-Life 2 when you get to specific scenes.
I particularly like the Highway 17 title screen because it felt so isolating:

I love the Xenoblade Chronicles X and the Xenosaga 2 title screens. Xenogears had a really cool intro with the little animation on the game's logo prior to the title screen, it was pretty badass.
I think the title screen and main menu for Remember Me were awesome too, with great animations and music.

I could watch Yoshi's Island rotate all day long
Some say the island is still rotating to this day.
Kane and Lynch 2: Dog Days had a small but incredible cycle of urban vignettes that were as beautiful as they were grimy.
This is a great one. Really eerie title screen that creeped me out as a kid.I love Super Castlevania IV's title screen. There's just something about the graphics, sound effects and music that made is super eerie as well as atmospheric (granted I was like 11 when I first saw it).
My favorites:
I love everything about this. The music, the camera panning over the city and it's people, and then, the sudden change of tone, the moon and the title screen. It's perfect for me.
Also this one.

TLOU title screen was amazing at evoking emotion through a simple sunlit window and music.
Also this one.
