Yes I know it's not a movie in a traditional sense but it could have been as it is a blockbuster that in many ways surpasses epic movies. I know that the actors are fully computerised but they are voiced by a stellar cast. I recently finished playing all but the third of the trilogy (am very near the end of the third) and got so involved in the story that had to give it a mention here. Because I enjoy a telling of a good story, I like games like these on a very easy setting so as not to hinder my enjoyment of the narration in any way, shape or form. Involving the player in key decisions and letting you direct the outcome of said story, the feeling of being in control of what happens on screen gives you a sense of accomplishment and derives some real thought into the making of each and every decision ending in emotionally caring for characters. Similar game/movie to this was "lost odyssey" (if enough demand, will do a short on that as well) of length equal to all three games. There are videos out there giving full story cut-scenes without gameplay for people who can't be bothered for a play through but where's the fun in that? This game begs to be played and is quite an experience so do yourself a favour and give it a chance.
