The more I play games and the more I go see films. It seems gaming is taking over when it comes to some really bloody good storytelling. Look at these two trailers for games.
Mass Effect 2:

Heavy Rain:

These two games have been such amazing experiences for me over the past year. I cried for the storyline in these games. The interactivity draws you in and makes you care so much for the characters.
Now compare that to the stuff in cinema right now. I think gamings gonna take over....
edit: also for these games. You make choices. if you choose something wrong someone dies and the game goes a different direction. Sometimes its about choosing between two people and having to kill someone. Again with separate directions to both games. Heave rain has a total like about 20 endings. and Mass Effect 2. You can finish the game without surviving yourself. Your whole team goes down with you. But it still finishes.
