I have to pick The World Ends with You because it actually had more than a few legitimate twists. The writing was great, and every character had their own stories that I actually cared about.

I would have to go with XenoGears, PlaneScape Torment, Metal Gear Solid 2, Half Life 2and FF: Tactics. They had had pretty good stories, characters, and settings.

The story in The Darkness actually stuck with me, which doesn't happen with a lot of games. Great characters too.

I'm gonna go with my favorite game of all-time, FFX. I loved just about everything that game had to offer.

Cod4 was really good. the stories behind the missions fitted together really well, and it was quite a clever story too.

the ending was emotional too, i was touched

-All the Metal Gear Solids have a great story. The fourth one was pushing a bit though.
-God of War has an interesting story with the whole Greek mythology thing.
-I'm replaying Silent Hill 2 at the moment after forgetting everything about it. It's a very good story and I'm looking forward to seeing how it plays out. I remember thinking it had a good story before.
-The Legend of Zelda had a great story but it has become pretty much the same thing in every game now.
-I absolutely love the Prince of Persia trilogy story. I've always liked anything with time travel.

That's a lot of games but they all have great stories :D

Final Fantasy VI, the best JRPG story of all time. Mass Effect, The Witcher, Bioshock, Deus Ex Invisible War, Lost Odyssey (the 2nd best JRPG story in my opinion), and Silent Hill 2 all had great stories.

aaronng1012
X story is not as good as the characters...the plot is a mess, but the characters make up for it. VII has one of the worst stories in the series and most of the characters are pretty bad. Final Fantasy VI has by far the best story in the series and in the genre.....FFIX's story and characters are excellent as well.

Knights of the Old Republic 2 The story isn't epic imo, but it's still great. It not being epic is what I love about it. Books and movies and can easily tell a very personal introspective story but usually games go for over the top balls to the wall fate of the world at every corner story, even when the setup is something personal. KOTOR2 was like a breath of fresh air. Plus the dialog is GREAT and the characters are some of the best i've ever seen in any medium.

Silent Hill 2 hands down.cousin_eddy
I have to agree this one is good, but I love all of the 4 original game stories. The Silent Hill franchise inspired me to write Horror and Magical Realism.

Silent Hill 2. One of the few video games that trancends story that's "great and original. . .for a video game" and becomes something that stands well on it's own. It has symbolism, emotion, and perfectly done storytelling.

First I'd like to say that anyone that thought MGS1 had a great story probaly never read a book or anything else with a story. The only things that really stood out were FoxDie and Metal Gear Rex. I haven't played the other 3 yet.

The storylines I liked were SW KotOR, Halo (mainly due to books), Bioshock, MGS4 (I haven't played it but I downloaded a 6 hour vid to check all the cutscenes. Alot of retarded scenes much like MGS1 butthere arereally interesting parts, especially the part when Snake finally meets Big Momma and she starts talking!), GTAIV, Prototype. I have alot of respect for the Half-Life story but I could never really get into it, eventho I've played both 1 and 2. I'll still need to work on the episodes, maybe those will reveal more. Atleast the gameplay was top notch. ^_^

EDIT: No More Heroes is nice too, weird but that's what makes it so appealing.
