    The Mass Effect games.
    Chrono Trigger.
    Golden Sun.
    Fire Emblem (the first US GBA one had the best, but several of the others had good writing as well).
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    Shouldn't a Monkey Island game or two be mentioned? Or Grim Fandango or something? And from what I hear, Planescape: Torment took Baldur's Gate's storytelling and dialogue to the next level. I've heard some people rave over the System Shock games. And original Fallout. Though pretty much anything Black Isle/BioWare/Obsidian is basically a shoe-in. I'm trying to think of that other PC game everyone loved back in the day...

    I dunno if it was the writing or the acting, but I loved how Jade was delivered in Beyond Good and Evil <3

    You mention Fallout 3 but not 1 or 2? I assume you did that because you haven't played them, in which case I urge you to do so as soon as possible.

    Pretty much all Bioware games are fantastically written.

    I'll second the Mass Effect mention and throw in FFXIII.

    EDIT: I also second/third/fourth/fifth/whateverth Uncharted 2, which probably beats the two others, now that I think about it.

    This.

    Also, Final Fantasy XII and Final Fantasy IX come to mind. The MGS games were also pretty well written.
