And for the record, a lot of books aren't that damn great either. Most stories, as a rule of thumb, are pretty tired and fairly crappy. This is true of any medium. Books just seem better because they're hundreds and hundreds of years old. The back catalog you have access to once you learn to read is enormous.

I know what you mean.  I can name quite a few books that have shallow stories and characters such as the Gossip Girls series and The Clique series(I never read them and never will) and I'm sure there is a LOT more.  For every book that is exceptional, there are 10 more(maybe even 50 more) that are downright terrible.  There are still plenty of good books to choose from.  It's the same thing for games, movies and any other medium.
