Just curious if anyone here happened to play Modern Warfare 2 or either Gears of War to see the story unfold.  My feeling is that both games execute in great level design and delivery, but the stories aren't anything to write home about.  In the case of Modern Warfare 2, the story is a mess, but delivered top notch.  Gears of War is classic space marines, with maybe some tweaks with backstory in there, but really not that memorable.  However, I am asking here if people feel different.  What is in my mind now is the humor video where the guy complains about motion control and wants to play a game for STORY.  And I am wondering WHAT story is so memorable in the area of videogames, particularly among FPS titles, that you play it for that... rather than cool gameplay.
