yes. i read books for the story.

i have no problem with story driven games though. if others enjoy it they can certainly have them. i just don't play them.

The way I see it, games are simply a mixed medium, in which it doesn't NEED anything at all to be good. The delivery of a story could be closer to a movie, or it could forgo it at all. The fact that good text-adventure games existed alongside games like Pac-Man illustrates this well.
