Metal Gear Solid hands down.

Though it wasn't really the first one, it was the first REALLY GOOD one.

Hhhmmm... Mario? Lol.

Pretty sure it was EarthBound on the SNES...Might have been something before that...

But the most immersive game I have played is Breath of Fire III. I don't know why, but that game just hits the spot for me :P

Zelda: Ocarina of Time for sure, I cried upon completion... I felt moved by that game, every emotion Link was expriencing, I was, that game was simply put, Godly!

Most immersed... Metroid Prime 3! The Metroid games have always been immersive, the switch to first person made it even more immersive and the controls and gestures of MP3 make is simply the most immersive experience I've ever had playing games! A wonderfully crafted masterpiece!

There have been stories I've liked for many years before, but the first time I was just SUCKED into was Beyond Good and Evil. Most games and their stories are stuck in a video game mold...Beyond Good and Evil totally destroys that mold and becomes simething else

For me it was also OoT, I played FFVII before it but I was too young to appreciate turn-based RPGs at the time (with he exception of Pokemon).

The first Halo. The only story that came close to grabbing me like Halo did was Kotor.

People hate on Halo for some reason when comes to story, but I think the story is fantastic. I's the only reason I played the game, I hated the multiplayer, and usually hate those style of FPS's. But the story was just awesome.

Most immersed - Metal Gear Solid

First immersed - No clue, but it definitely wasn't as good as Metal Gear Solid.

It was back in 95-96 I think. It had cutscenes with real actors, Mark Hamill(Luke Skywalker) was playing the lead role, and every now and then you could even make your own choises on how the cutscene/story continues, it was awesomeness. Before that only games I played with stories worth mentioning were the old Sierra/Lucasarts adventure games, but the way WCIV carried out the story ..well not even many modern games can match it.

You are pretty simple if tetris did it for you seeing it has NO story. And if you was being sarcastic.......it wasn't funny.

The original Zelda, Anarchy, and Dragon Warrior all come to mind. I guess you could say immersed because these were the first games where I cared to learn more about the worlds.Ibacai

Dragon Warrior was pretty sweet back in the day, definately the first game that made me care about the story.

Half-Life 2 is probably the first game that's ever really made me care about the characters and become immersed in the story. They characters are just so believable that it's hard not to care. The opening of Half-Life 2: Episode Two actually made me hit pause and stop for a second--I was that caught up in the (extremely intense) situation. Those who have played it probably know what I'm talking about...

Starcraft. It's still my favourite story in a video game.
