Ehh... Fanboy, I am, but Marathon is the video game story. It beats out any other, crossing genres and any other presumed boundaries placed on games in general with it's incredible depth. Also, I heartily agree with the quality of writing for Durandal (though Tycho and all the other A.I.'s were extremely fun to read). Personally, as I see more and more games come out, and more stories in general, the lines between good, evil, virtue and vice become more blurred, and the simple shock value of a story is valued over it's actual content. Plot twists are fun, but they aren't the only thing that makes a story great. My vote then, whether it is on this poll or not, goes for Marathon as a series.
