5. Grand Theft Auto IV
In another terrific example of interactive story telling, at the business end of the game the ball is in your court to make a choice. It's a real rock-and-a-hard-place situation, as you're given the option of making a deal with the bad guy who's been screwing you over for the past twenty hours, or picking a fight with him. Whichever way you play it, you lose. You lose a lot. And on your wedding day. You take the deal and Roman will get a face full of bullets. You choose the fight and it's Niko's wife who get's the lead enema. Arguably, Roman's death is the harder hitter as his character is developed a lot more throughout the game, but at the end of the day, it's a nice little depressing message from Rockstar reminding us all that our actions have consequences. Bad ones.

I'm just a humble wannabe writer from the midlands, who reads too much, watches too much tv, and hopes to one day be at the helm of some dramatic brilliance of my own. But for now, the likes of Breaking Bad and anything Stephen King are far too distracting.
