Game with the best story, you have played

v12dock · Mar 30, 2011

As the title states I would like to get peoples opinion on the topic.

I would say: Ace Combat 5

crazyeyesreaper · Mar 30, 2011

tough choice but im gonna have to say,

Chrono Trigger and or Chrono Cross

FordGT90Concept · Mar 30, 2011

Ground Control II: Operation Exodus

happita · Mar 30, 2011

Definitely definitely DEFINITELY

Zelda: Ocarina of Time

Lionheart · Mar 30, 2011

Hmmm I gots a few :rolleyes:

Final Fantasy X :toast:

Metal Gear Solid 1 :rockout:

DrPepper · Mar 30, 2011

Minecraft ....

Nah seriously Ace Combat 5.

burtram · Mar 30, 2011

I actually really enjoyed the Colony Wars games on PS1 (all 3 of them). It was like playing an awesome space combat movie. Still hasn't been anything like it for space flight/combat games only one that came close for me, was Descent: Freepspace (for gameplay mostly, not so much story).

Animalpak · Mar 30, 2011

hard to say there is alot... Mass effect

Maban · Mar 30, 2011

Ace Combat 5 is certainly the most memorable to me.

streetfighter 2 · Mar 30, 2011

Deus Ex. I just beat it for the first time a few months ago and it is as brilliant as everyone told me it was.

I want to go on record of saying I hate stories in games. I want mindless violence and physics puzzles. :roll:

Chrono Trigger

Good name drop. :toast:

7.62 · Mar 30, 2011

Half Life

hat · Mar 30, 2011

Final Fantasy 7.

Raovac · Mar 30, 2011

Mafia 1

ctrain · Mar 30, 2011

planescape torment

the script length for that game was unreal. pretty sure it was multiple times the length of a typical novel. not even sure i have the patience to make it through it these days. it is wordy like no other.

also no game breaks the 4th wall quite like metal gear solid, it's hilarious.

DanishDevil · Mar 30, 2011

The Mass Effect series :rockout:

AltecV1 · Mar 30, 2011

best story in my opinion was in the first mass effect,it felt like the beginning of something awesome but then mass effect 2 came along and my hopes were crushed

Final Fantasy X

Kast · Mar 30, 2011

Too easy the Resident Evil Series excluding 4 and 5

Evolved · Mar 30, 2011

Diablo, Starcraft, and Warcraft. Hands down, best stories ever!!!

EiSFX · Mar 30, 2011

for story i would have to say the silent hill series and the Half life series

and as a honorable mention would be Universe at War Earth Assault the SP campaign story line is epic and i have to say one of the best story lines i have seen in any RTS game

entropy13 · Mar 30, 2011

Suikoden 1 & 2

bbmarley · Mar 30, 2011
