And the story, as performed by digitised versions of big-time Hollywood actors and filmmakers, including Elle Fanning, Lea Seydoux and Guillermo Del Toro? Even though its gameplay has been repeated and refined in hundreds of subsequent releases (including the brilliant Bioshock series), this remains one of the greatest games of all time.
