As you can tell from my avatar, I'm a pretty huge Baldur's Gate fan. I consider them to the be pinnacle of storytelling excellence in the medium. However, I would choose BioShock. Granted, it is a retelling of System Shock 2's story and the endings were pretty poor, but the setting is totally original and the story is quite compelling. It even explored themes that would consider to be taboo. I was going to choose Half-Life, but the original Half-Life's story wasn't anything to write home about.
