None of those games have stories that would hold a candle to even a mediocre novel by, say Stephen King or Neil Stephenson. Most of them are direct rip-offs of novels and don't even hide it. And that's OK, you should play a game because its fun and not because it has or doesn't have a story. I love video games, but I don't kid myself about their literary value. That said, Half Life 2 was a ton of fun, even though the story did kind of suck.
