He's right.

If I want a great story, I'll read a book. If I want a crappy story, I'll watch a movie. If I want a crappier story, I'll watch television. If I want an even crappier story, I'll play a cinematic video game.

What if you want to feel like you're part of the story?

I walk outside and live my own story.

I gotta admit, I didn't expect that answer.  You've inspired me, amp316.  From this point on, no more experiencing epic space battles and swinging from rooftops through the eyes of a video game character.  No more solving raiding tombs and exploring haunted mansions from the comfort of my couch.  No, from this day forward, d21lewis will live his adventures!  Huzzah!!
