I've been playing Puzzle Quest: Challenge Of The Warlords.
It's got a quest section with some story elements. But I couldn't stand it. It's like playing tetris with a tacky story. I couldn't force myself to care. Luckily it's got a skip button and I could just skip almost every dialogue.
Recently I've beaten LoZ Phantom Hourglass. I was hoping for some storyline that could motivate me to some extent but I was utterly disappointed.
I have almost zero trust in game developers' ability to deliver a good story. In this respect, anime is more or less the same to me. Once in a while, you get to see some decent anime story but it's still only one in hundreds. I believe both game and anime have unique potential to become excellent storytelling media, but so far they have failed quite a bit.
