That's why I'm waiting.

I loved the COD4 story, played out just like a movie.

True, if you wait till my next life, I might be female then.

That would be just cause to kill myself.

It's coming along great. The media is great and everything about it is great!

Thats really cool, but they should rename it. All of the other mods used scientific terms.

Bioshock, definately... Strongly suggest anyone who can to pick it up. And be sure to pay attention, or you might miss things.

Call of Duty 4 was also pretty cool. Perfect Dark 64 had a great story.

For those who are having truble with the gnome in Half-Life. You can pick it up and put it on Alyx's lap (in the car). But yeah, Half life is awesome.

I was wondering about that...

Silent Hill series is good.


Not as good as FF though.

That's very true, if you pay attention to the little things Bioshock becomes an even more interesting game.

Thats what I hate about some people...they don't pay attention to the small things in a game that turns out to be really big later on. Then they go onto the game's forums and complain about how much it sucked.

Heh lol that is true. But hopefully a game would still be good (especially if it's like Bioshock) even if you don't pay much attention.

I probably put this earlier in the thread, but Shenmue is pretty epic. You were always kept in the dark about imporant information until the last minute, and everything ties together nicely thus far, although the story hasnt been completed yet.

Someone did, and I replied to it.

It's extremely underrated because of the poor voice actors, but it was epic. From the looks of it the story will never be completed.

Hands-Down:

The Longest Journey

YES! Thankyou!!!!!!! Lol.

By "the longest journey" do you mean Dreamfall?

Arcanum: Of Magick And Steamworks Obscura

I played through that game, and my god, it has one hell of a well written story. Too bad the game never sold well...

Other great game stories include:
F.E.A.R. - Well, with this one, you more find out what the hell is going on as you go along, but it is still pretty good... some great scares

... and I'm sure there are other games I played with good stories, but nothing else comes to mind at the moment in time
