10 Incredible Video Game Stories That Got Everybody Talking

Does anybody really fully understand Bioshock Infinite?

When it comes down to it, 90% of gaming storylines play out like ridiculous B-Movie power-fantasies. From the hokey dialogue to the extremely generic plots, it€™s safe to say that historically, video games haven't been particularly revered for their narrative prowess. But that€™s starting to change. With gaming becoming more and more sophisticated in the current age, the ability to tell unique stories and to craft innovative experiences exclusive to the medium means that every once in a while, a game€™s plot becomes a bigger talking point than actually act of playing the title itself. Whether it€™s a cracking last minute twist or a superbly crafted set of characters, video games over the past few few generations have produced some of the most memorable narratives in any medium ever €“ and the fact is that there are some titles you absolutely need to play exclusively to experience the story. But, while a lot of games can have good narratives - whether it's Knights of The Old Republic or the original Bioshock - only a select few manage to be so poignant, so affecting, and so impactful that their legacy and implications are still talked about to this day.
