Games that nail the art of scripted game design

These titles know how to make you feel in control while pulling the strings behind the scenes.

Heart of Darkness (PS1) had excellent art design.

I loved the art in Alone in The Dark on Dreamcast, and I thought Limbo was simple but spot on with the game.

Uncharted 3 had many instances where i wasnt sure if i was still watching a cut scene or not. That is the only game I can reemember that happening this gen. Amazing ins & outs of scripted things happening!

My Mate who was wathing couldnt even tell if i was playing or watching a movie!!!! there were certain times i was like OMG!!!! what's going on here! NaughtyDog is at the top of there game! Infinityward with COD4:MW was the best Scripted FPS ever created!!!! I also think Insomniac with Resistance 3, did a great example of keeping you in the action with it's scripted Set pieces The very first widow maker battle was proof of this!!

Once again, I will take scripted over cutscenes anyday.

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

Furesis24d ago

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

anast24d ago

It's worth a play through today.

MW was an excellent videogame. They messed up Spec Ops big time, but aside from this it was a huge step in the right direction initially. Most notably, at launch it seemed to come from a very cohesive creative vision that was felt across gameplay, to story to art style/visual direction. It was also very notably written by prominent ex-Naughty Dog guys that quit almost immediately before release.

That COMPLETELY dissolved through post-launch content and the full pivot to a "cross-mode" narrative that completely obliterated the cohesion in overall story direction. Warzone then "became" the new face of Call of Duty and the franchise completely removed itself from anything remotely creatively "good". It is a pure money machine, so I kinda get why they're doing it....but I personally completely lost interest.

I would love to see Infinity Ward move off CoD and get to make their own product with full control. They clearly have some massive talent in their ranks but it's perverted by Activision's corporate interests.
