Rules for movies, games and TV
So far after the research and hours and hours and hours of watching title sequences this is what I've realized between the relationship between title sequences in movies, TV and games, TV has it's own set of rules where as I've mentioned before the title sequence is more of a promotional and branding tool where as in more recent times games title sequences now follow movie title sequence rules where they have a more artistic and storytelling purpose which prepare you for whats to come, for example the Killzone 2 game title sequence is a perfect example of this below is the link to view the sequence,

Also another great example of this is the Scarface video game title sequence, where they use clips from the movie, a great soundtrack and quotes from the movie throughout the sequence which all tie together to make a sequence that builds in suspense, you can view this at,

Typography
The typography should be part of the animation, key points the designers pointed out that typography should be informative, engaging, narrative and expressive.
Fonts that other title sequence artists like to use are Helvetica, Universe Condensed in medium and bold forms, Avant Garde or Lubalin Graph, however i think it depends on the piece you are creating and you should try to keep an open mind.
