I'd like to make an amendment... I meant Lost Odyssey, not Lost Kingdoms.

I've always liked the storylines to Twilight Princess and Final Fantasy II (the real one). So dark.

Lost Odyssey is great. But I also love the stories of KOTOR, Mass Effect, Halo and FFVII.

Xenogears
Xenosaga series
Chrono series

^ Those are on an entirely different level to anything else out there in sheer storyline.

While I would not rank it the best.

I feel Final Fantasy Tactics deserves a mention for having the best plot of any FF game.

The plot was pretty amazing but I don't know if I'd say it was the best.

Final fantasy VII has, I feel, become largely underrated due to how it has been perceived to be so overrated in the past. People like to find faults or dispel the "myth" of how great it really is. Truthfully I think it definitely ranks #1 in storyline. The sheer execution of the storyline was incredible.

I'd also rate IX more highly, and Vagrant Story as well if it counts.

I did not find near the depth in VII as I did in Tactics. IX is close though, I admit.

Never played Vagrant Story.

Vagrant Story's probably the closest game to Tactics there is. Developed by the exact same team, both share the same setting (Ivalice), and both have crazy amounts of storyline depth.

I adore Tactics but I don't think it's really its story that carried it. It was good, but I think other FF games have better plots.

If you just go by the games, Halo has massive plot holes (I don't the games ever sucessfuly explain why the covenant are so hell-bent on exterminating Humanity), but when you factor in the novels, the vast majority of the holes are filled in, and it makes alot more sense.

I can confidently say, that novels do not count.

The thread title is best storyline in a GAME, not in a separate media of the game's fictional universe.

even without the novels how is it a horrible thing to say it is the best when taste is subjective?

i found bioshocks story be boring because it didnt appeal to me. but i have no problem with people thinking otherwise.
