"Specifically, we asked:
"Which video game has made the biggest 'quantum leap' in terms of storytelling, and why?"
Honorable Mention: System Shock (series)At least it got mentioned...but seeing SS2 next to the SIMS makes me wonder....:rolleyes:
Well at least Deus Ex Won!

What's extremely ironic about this, is that the person who nominated SS2 works at EA. :weird:

What's extremely ironic about this, is that Deus Ex isn't a triumph of storytelling in the slightest. :weird:

Whats really ironic, is that LGS made SS2 and Deus Ex. :weird:

They didn't make either game. SS2 was mainly the work of Irrational, and Deus Ex was made by Ion Storms Austin branch.

Hence the irony. (Actually didn't know that.)

Although many Ion Storm and Irrational employees are/were former Looking Glass employees (and Irrational did recieve help from Looking Glass while producing SS2, after all, they were using the Dark (Thief 1/2) engine).

Yeah, please.
Compared to the average perception of videogame storytelling eg. Mario, it is a quantum leap-and-a-qbit.
