You know everyone's played one at one time. Seaman, Aquanauts Holiday, a FMV with little or no actual gameplay. Or how about a Digital Comic?
I enjoy them in small doses, as long as I have traditonal games to balance this genre out.
I had a great time with Seaman.
Xenosaga was a great movie.
Seaman was the one that popped to mind from the thread's title. RC Stunt Coptor is worth mentioning too.
I'd say they're all games. They're different from most, but still games.Quote:

Damn it! I was going to use Final Fantasy X myself.Quote:

Oh, I know it was. I'm also eagerly awaiting the next one. But something must be said of a game where you can divide the cutscenes and exploration segments into a 26 episode series (I forget where I saw it, but it was available for download somewhere).Quote:
