People I going to say
Dreamfall, so I'll go and be the first to say it, at least. Not that I dislike it, I love it in fact. And, I don't mind games that feel like "play-through stories" (aka interactive movies, more or less) as long as the story is good. Ah, other example:
Fahrenheit (also, a good story, except the imho ending).
About RPG: it is true their storytelling is often superior these days (I am playing lots of these lately, for this reason). But, I don't think there is anything intrinsic to the RPG genre that confers them an advantage over AGs. BTW, the "role" word comes from the roles players assume in traditional, board, RPGs.
