There are now more than a dozen games in this RPG (role-playing game) series, each consisting of about half game play, and half cinematics - or in-game mini-movies. The player controls certain elements of storyline, like fighting battles. Once they accomplish a mission, a cinematic begins that propels the plot forward and into the next mission.
These games take place in what is considered one of the most beautiful worlds ever created for a video game, and the seventh in the series is highly regarded as having the best story. The series' popularity is partially due to the mixing of so many genres - action, fantasy, myth and love.
A film based on the games was released in 2001, but did poorly at the box office. Most claim the failure was due to the fact that the film followed an entirely new storyline instead of adapting the more popular cinematics.
