Haha, I can see it from that perspective too, but I think games a really exciting platform to tell stories.
Games I've played that are shooters, or highly shooter-esque, which would be little without their storyline:
Fallout 3
Fallout New Vegas
Portal (1&2)
Red Dead Redemption
Mass Effect series
HL series
KOTOR 1&2

I know many of those are adventure rpg's, but they all have pretty fluent fighting systems, so they deserve to be up there :P
Also heard Deus Ex was excellent, tried out the newest one on my pc (too slow lol) but seemed very shooter-y.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series also has a really great story from what I can gather, and is wholly shooter too.

Lol, playing it pretty fast and loose there

Especially with kotor!! There’s no shooting kotor, it’s all automated dice-rolls!!

yah, but she's playing it off like "yah i don't care what those LOSERS! think of me. They're all men who are scared of powerful women".

she'll never get it dude. she's a lost cause.

Could get flak for it, but I actually really enjoyed the story in BioShock: Infinite. It was the first game in a long while that I'd actually lost myself in the world. The original game was also great until the final third or so.

I really liked the story behind Wolfenstein 3D: In essence, the Nazis are developing zombie technology to produce a legion of undead warriors.

What's not to like? I just wish it happened in a moon station

No love for Max Payne here?

Red Dead!!

Wait wait wait. What do you mean you HEARD Deus Ex was excellent? Are you? Are you saying you haven't played the original Deus Ex?

Well like i said, most of the stories in games are utter garbage anyway, regardless of the style of the game. I have good hopes for the new Torment game though! The old one was one of the games about which i could honestly say that it had a decent story.

Aaaargh, for Christ's sake, do I need to work on my voice pitch or what?!

I've lost count of how many times people on the phone call me "ma'am" before they ask my name

Former Prime Minister Baroness Thatcher has died at 87 following a stroke, her spokesman has said.

I wonder how many parties there will be in the UK this week celebrate the occasion.

Originally posted by pkcRAISTLIN who cares about story in a shooter though, really?

System Shock 2!

Discussing story in FPS games and the new Bioshock wasn't even what you guys were discussing?

Useless.

I haven't gotten around to it yet. $60! Oy.

I hate the fact that the gaming forum on this site is deader than Thatcher and Chavez combined. Something has to be done.

BTG's reign of terror drove everyone away!

That evil Thatcher who decriminalized homosexuality (Alan Turing?) and it's hegemonic Tory party that legalized Gay Marriage in the U.K.

Evil evil men.

I'm going to try to live off the grid for a while. I am doing quite well at work. I am one of the top agents. I have a 87 average in Uni. I will be writing my GMAT for my MBA this summer. I feel like I can do a lot better and I waste a lot of time at work fooling around on the internet which takes me longer to do my work. I am not slow. As a matter of fact I am quicker than most of my colleagues. However, I could be going even quicker which would mean less time in the office and more time either selling or more free time. Especially with summer coming up, I would like to spend some of this money I have made.

So as of next week I will be getting rid of twitter and facebook. This will be quite weird because as long as I remember I have always had some type of an online presence. I do want to see what it will be like to be off the grid for a while.

What also kinda sucks is that I have a few friends in other countries who I have met throughout my life and I use these vehicles to stay in touch with them. I will miss that connection. I am sure it won't be something I will do forever ever ever. Anyways I will be giving it a try on my 31st bday.

and yes I am waiting for my birthday to see how many people say happy bday to me on facebook. Go fuck yourselves
