Not quite an adventure game, not quite an action game, Indigo Prophecy (Fahrenheit in Europe) sets a new standard as an half-game/half-interactive movie. From the use of motion-capture, the great voice acting, to the copious well-placed quick-time events, this game is all about the ride.

The game's story revolves around a man who commits a murder, but isn't quite himself during the incident. The narrative then unravels from various points of view. Sometimes you're the killer, sometimes you're the cop trying to apprehend the killer. So in a sense, you often play against yourself. I enjoyed the back and forth nature of this game, as it gives a really well-rounded view of the story.

The game has a spiritual successor out now for the Playstation 3, called Heavy Rain. If you're a fan of one, there's a good chance you will enjoy the other.
