Awwww Come on!!! Gears of War j/k

GTA IV best Story

"You think it compares to Metal Gear Solid, Prince of Persia, God of War, and Final Fantasy VII?"

No way.  I'm pretty sure the plot to the Marble Blast games is much better than the Max Payne storyline.

"Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (Best story in the series)"

"Fair enough. I don't really care if someone likes Final Fantasy, but don't you dare call it an RPG. That's criminal."

"Final Fantasy Vll

No. The most basic story in the series. Not the best story in the series."

I also found the Snake Eater storyline to be elementary.  That's not to say it wasn't compelling, because it was executed well enough, but it was pretty straightforward."

It was definatly better than the second one anyway. Having not played the fourth one, I can't really say which Metal Gears Solid game is my favorite, but so far the original is my favorite."

I thought the second one was fantastic. The third one seemed like Kojima got worried by the backlash of MGS2 and basically made some dodge James Bond fanfiction. In every MGS game besides that one, i've been hooked by the story and that was my main reason to keep playing, but in MGS3, I just got so bored by the story, characters and setting."

I found the second one to be so ridiculously over-complex. I have no problem with complex stories, but Sons of Liberty was a steaming pile of neo-philosophical, false reality, conspiracy mumbo-jumbo that  came off like Kojima had a ridiculously huge shit-load of ideas for a plot and decided to smash them all together into a small, convoluted package. The game itself was pretty good, if you can get past playing as Raiden the whole time.

I liked the original more if only because it was so much more memorable. It had a more cohesive (albeit far-fetched) storyline, that despite it's cheesiness and campy-ness managed to come off as fresh and original anyway. The opening scene, the first time an enemy discovers your footprints in the snow, the DARPA chief scene, the boss fights (especially Psycho Mantis), and even more moments than I care to list right now, were more than enough to make that game incredibly memorable and interesting, even if it isn't as fun to play as some newer games."

"I mean honestly. The story of the first Max Payne is just so incredible. The feeling of the story, the graphic novel, the music setting the tone for the story. It's all so perfect. So please enlighten to your personal opinion as to why you think the story of Max Payne is one of the greatest.

*makes Napalm first giantbomb friend*  Seriously, Max Payne's story is great. It's one of the only games to have its story truly enhance its gameplay. Max Payne went through so many great levels in that game. I also love the game's characters (even moreso in MP2 but MP1's story is still MUCH better)
