Can a Videogame Make You Cry?

I don't know if anyone else has played Zone of the Enders: The Fist of Mars, but I remember getting quite caught up in that game's story. It was as much an interactive novel as it was a story-drive game, although I was much younger when I played through it and my opinion of it may be drastically different if I play it again.

The thing is, though, there are probably non-zero-sum markets both for the "interactive novel" type game and the story-less twitch shooters. It just takes a different person or mood to appreciate the genre in question.
