What video game do you recommend for a good story? I like to play video games while my girlfriend watches, because she's not good at playing them herself. It's like an interactive movie. I've played the entire Zelda series for her, and Bioshock, and now we're working on Halflife 2.

Um, can you at least tell us what platform it is you wish to play recommendations?
he wants a game with a good story stu!
i second the Final Fantasies, and the entire Metal Gear Solid quadrilogy (assuming you have a PS2 or a PS3 with Backwards Compatability)
Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion is worth checking out as well, although most Elder Scrolls fans would say Morrowind is better, i assume you use a PC for a gaming platform as well so pick up either of them
Blazblue: Calamity Trigger also has a good story, and it's really addictive, Mass Effect 1 & 2 as well
any of the Silent Hill games, especially the second, the entire Legacy of Kain series is also a good bet if you're looking for a really complicated, intricate and sophisticated story
most of these you can probably pick up for about £5-£20 nowdays

Some suggestions...
Silent Hill 2.
Max Payne (the first one).
Uncharted 2.
House of the Dead: Overkill (for the ice cream truck scene alone).
Gitaroo Man.
Killer 7.
Braid.
Phoenix Wright trilogy.

Then anything Final Fantasy, Metal Gear Solid and Resident Evil spring to mind, but FF games tend to be a little too long for that purpose.diptila said:
Though you did ask for good stories. And you've already played two of the few games that phrase can even remotely be applied to.
Maybe Mass Effect. More non-gamers need to see that series... but again, an RPG. I'd definitely avoid anything in that 20+ hour range (so, most of what everyone else has already said).
