what the fuck you lookin at?
The story and the awesome atmosphere should be amped up for bioshock 2 I would think. It's been announced but not sure about release date.
Yep COD 6 should be pretty good.
In racing games I think Need For Speed: Most Wanted has the best storyline
Will E Worm
Conspiracy...
Sega Dreamcast Shenmue
I wish there were new games for Dreamcast.

The entire Dragon Warrior series has a pretty cool storyline, IMO. I've always thought that Megaman has a cool storyline too...if you think about the "good robot vs. bad robot" emphasis.
Xenogears is my all time favorite as well.There is so much stuff going on in it,but it isn't over done.It single handedly changed my opinion about RPGs.Even though I played a few of them before,Xenogears really made me a fan of the genre.
FFXIII is also up there along with FFX(even though Blitzball was a complete waste of time).
All of the Metal Gears post Nintendo are all excellent(never really got into the NES version),and last,but not least,Blaster Master.Who can't love a story about a boy chasing after his pet frog:tongue:.
Supposedly,they are making one.I forgot who they said was gonna play Snake though.

God I hope not. All they do when they make a video game into a movie is fuck it up. The ONLY exception to this was the first resident evil movie. All the rest of the video game - movie transitions have been complete shit. Now, I've never played any of the metal gear games, but even still if they made a movie out if it, they'd still fuck it up in my eyes.
I will say that there is an immense and awesome back story to the games that all they would have to do is pretty much follow what is already established.It's so easy to translate what they have done already that it would be absolutely insane to try and change anything.
That being said,they probably would change things and surely fuck it up completely,because that's what Hollywood does,and I hope that they ultimately scrap the whole idea for that reason.

There's a game called Dead to Rights for PS2 that I thought had a pretty good story line. I mean, you get to control a police dog...how fucking sweet is that?

It would be easy as hell to make a good metal gear movie, following the story already laid down. But like you said, that won't happen. Shit just look what hollywood did to mario bros...nuf said!
Too true.Hell, and what about Street Fighter?
The whole Metal Gear series. They are even better than most of the Hollywood movies
That was a great game. Played Shenmue 2 for my XBOX for quite some time. Both required a lot of discipline to play though.
Some of my favorite Story lines:
System Shock 2
Mass Effect
Wing Commander 2
Bioshock
Silent Hill series
Clive Barker's Undying
Will E Worm

Cool link. Thanks for posting that.
IMO, The Force Unleashed had a great story. A tad too short, but great nonetheless
like Ziilak said, metal gear solids all have an awesome storyline, one of a kind in my opion
