Yeah, Renmiri beat me to it. I think the top of Pharos is the best scene in the game.

The part where Vaan picks up Reddas' sword and is breathing heavy, then he looks at Ashe and their eyes meet for a few seconds... it's like "DAMN, this is an intense story!"

The intro was real crazy too, really surprised me at how much Square is capable of as far as directing. But it felt like "ok, when's this movie going to end and the game start???". it was still good though.
