The worst thing about narrative in games is critics, and to a lesser extent, us. We're too tolerant, so when something like BioShock comes along, it gets lauded for its story, whereas in fact BioShock's story was pretty damn shit.

The thing is, unlike films, games actually have more important things to do. Distil any story down enough and they all sound shit and contrived.
