Bioshock

[Fathom Zero]

The storyline was that every event in the game was contrived. So I am agreeing with you in a roundabout way.

Game gets a C++. TOO DAMN SHORT. The later parts were unexciting. "OOH! I'm about to fight the final boss! Oh wait! THERE'S A DOOR YOU HAVE TO UNLOCK." Blowing the locks took at least an hour and a half. And then it wasn't a fight at all. Ryan was a pussy. Fontaine was a fucking joke. Let's run all the way around and grab all the damn antidotes.

But it was pretty and the scripted environmental effects were pretty badass.
