I haven't played any computer games in a couple of years now, but I remember I used to have this old fantasy role-playing game called Baldur's Gate. It was really cool, with great action and a really interesting plot (well...more interesting than Mariokart, anyway). The ending was an enormous let-down. At the beginning of the story, you learn that you're an orphan; well, guess what? At the end of the story, you learn that the main evil dude is your father! I mean seriously, I'd have thought that people who write intricate fantasy plots for a living could do a little better than copying the twist from The Empire Strikes Back...
