Why did you highlight The Walking Dead? It had a great storyline and there's a reason it got a lot of the GOTY awards.
edited thanks for catching that. Meant to just bold the bottom for punch out.

+10000000000 yes! I had faith that we would see the next one soon.....but I've lost all hope
Planescape Torment
Mass Effect 1, 2, and 3
Knights of the Old Republic (2 was good also)
Deus Ex and Deus Ex - Human Revolution
Mafia II
The Witcher 1 and 2
Grim Fandando is the best game I have ever played I suggest everyone who has not played it please do.
If that game were re-released in hd I would buy it all over again on steam ps3 ps4 whatever. I would buy and Xbox one just for playing this game over again. It's a Shane it didn't get the sales and disappeared.
Hell, Grim Fandando would make a great iPad/tablet game.
black isle/bioware games always had good storylines.
Torment tops them all, but I wonder if he can stand the graphics.
However, most of the games with great storyline are linear rpg. Is he into those? Maybe your son is just a fps guy.
Final Fantasy 7 was great. I really wish I was able to/ have the time to play the earlier FF games as I heard those were great if not better.
I personally like a story that focuses more on the characters and their personal struggles, rather than some over-arching story about good-vs-evil.
FF6 for example was very character-driven: just look at the the ending, it was a 20 minute summary of each personality and their continuing journey through personal transformation. FF4 also did this pretty well. Other FF/RPG games focus more on plot and how the world is going to end, and the characters are just not as important and more facade-like. I guess FF7 had a good balance, although I really don't remember much about each character other than they were kinda emo, like in FF8. Don't get me started on FFX I remember dick-all about that one other than being pretty annoyed with the main characters.
Never tried those games either, but hear good things about emLike say ...persona 3 or 4 which is mostly the interactions between characters.
I liked FF7 actually, played through it twice I think... just can't seem to remember much. I liked the part when Cloud goes kinda crazy/mental and is in a wheel chair. The story just kinda felt recycled from other things, but yeah maybe I missed the point. I had a similar reaction to The Matrix... it was executed well, just didn't seem all that original at it's core. I guess it was just too predictable...I do find that people who like FF6 more than FF7 either A.) didn't like Cloud or B.) didn't grasp the story.

I don't know if it's the "best" story per se, but I thought N.O.L.F 1/2 were great in terms of funny 1960s spy camp.
you saying I'm a dummy!? I'ma not a dummy, oh I "get" it, damnnnnn you a gonna pay for that bing time!!!you likely didn't get it....not entirely your fault

they actually made a pretty cool 20 minute movie that covers some of the Zack/Cloud exchange called Final Fantasy 7 Last Order....Its on youtube. You can also get the crisis core cut screens.....like 2 hours worth on there as well. Fills in the holes and assumptions left in FF7.
I think FF7 is the first and possibly only RPG to use split personality/psychotic delusions/repressed and forcefully altered memories in its main character. Its what makes this game stand out above the rest....I remember slowing piecing this together with the little cues left in the game before it was all reviled in the mako.
You'd probably like PS:T, then. They didn't do it first, but they absolutely did it better.

I have heard nothing but great things....however I'll likely never play it due to the oldness of the game and its mechanics.....Maybe they will remake it but unlikely due to how little profit it made.....
My PC gaming suffered big time during the PS1 and PS2 years due to the high volume of excellent content.
Can you still go back and play FF7? If so, PS:T looks much better overall.
If not, there is a new Torment game coming out next year, but with a new story.
I know it's super hard to accept the fact that Return to Zork strayed from it's purely text-based mechanics... there there it'll be ok...I don't think a lot of people read text from some of the best games back in the old days. Basically anything that has high production cut scenes like your Black OPS and shit automatically gets a pass on this forum for best story.
I am not saying these are bad games to play, just that I don't think a lot of people read text from some of the best games back in the old days. Basically anything that has high production cut scenes like your Black OPS and shit automatically gets a pass on this forum for best story.
Probably not a bad rule of thumb as a generalization....but there will always be exceptions to this. And as the future become the present they could have 30/40 hours of storyline driven cut scenes....If they can replace reading text with voice acting they will.
Crisis Core had over 2 hours of story driven cut scene's....While admittedly it would fit into this rule and shouldn't be considered best story in itself.
