So far the newest generation of consoles hasn't been the best at putting all that graphical might into creating intricately designed plots purpose-built to pull the rug out from under you at the last second - but it's definitely something gaming can arguably do better than film when the appropriate amount of care is put in. Being that you're the one behind the controls and it's you who's dead-centre as things kick off either in-game or cutscene, it makes for some hugely impactful and resonant moments you'll carry forever - especially when they centre around loveable characters like Final Fantasy VII's Aeris', for example. In looking at the best of the decade so far, there's been some fantastic games, some immensely disappointing ones and a bucketload of fantastic moments across scores of titles that made for many a discussion across forums, classrooms and work spaces worldwide. What of those glorious plot twists though? There's nothing quite like having your world turned upside down at the last second, especially when a developer has managed to string you along in exactly the right direction. They say you author your own experience in video games thanks to being able to get through and interact with levels in a myriad of ways, but when the best creative minds are behind the puppet-strings, you won't see what they've got planned until the very last second. Note: Naturally, spoilers will follow.
