System: Playstation 2
Genre: Adventure
Beyond Good & Evil was great game with varied gameplay and high production values but what really makes it special was the plot which was far deeper than anything I'd seen in this kind of game before. It dealt with conspiracy, rebellion and human experiments and culminated in a horrifying cliffhanger which was made all the more crushing by the announcement that the planned sequel had been cancelled and we'd never find out what happened next. Happily that decision has since been reversed and Beyond Good and Evil 2 is on the way!
