The Greatest Stories Ever Played
Video Games and the Evolution of StorytellingBy Dustin HansenNarrated by Graham HalsteadLength7h 16m
About this audiobook
We all know that video games are fun, but can a video game make you cry? Can it tell you a powerful love story? Can a video game make you think differently about war? About the environment? About the choices you make?
Whether it’s playing through blockbuster-esque adventures (Uncharted, God of War, The Last of Us), diving deep into hidden bits of story and lore (Red Dead Redemption II, BioShock, Journey) or building relationships that change the fate of the world itself (Persona 5, Undertale), video games are bringing stories to life in ways that are immediate, interactive, and immersive.
Focusing on some of the best, most memorable, experiences in gaming, The Greatest Stories Ever Played examines the relationship between gaming and storytelling in a new way.
