Here's an interesting article, over at Gamespot, asking if video games are an ideal medium for telling stories.

Part 2 will be up next week featuring 2K Games (BioShock) and Tim Schafer.

Videogames sure are ideal mediums for telling stories and if an ideal medium is one that's lucrative both to the author, the publisher and the developer then, I'd vote more for game adaptations than movie-adaptations.

That's just my personal opinion, other's may vary.
