Condensed games.

[Beltaine]

So Major League Basebell puts up condensed games by taking out all the in-between stuff that isn't critcal to the game.

Is there anywhere that does this with video games?

With all the sequels coming out, I'd like to see the story of the previous games without spending the hours to playthrough before I play the sequel.

I have Mass Effect and Bioshock and never finished them. Liked them, just never finished.

Assassin's Creed 2 had a decent summary of the first game.

Other than that, I don't know.

EDIT: Wait, your explanation of a condensed game has no relation whatsoever with your question!

You say condensed games are where things are removed to make it a better experience.

Then you ask for plot summaries.

Plot exposition and condensed games are different things.

Finish Mass Effect, the last hour is one of gaming's finest moments.

Just hit up the wiki. It tells you everything about everything.

Youtube or Wikipedia. Lots of summaries there.

Like before, head to the wiki, or, if you have the time, watch a Let's play of the game on youtube. be warned though, there barely any good lets players, but plenty of bad ones.

There are a few sequels that explain the plot of the previous game (in KoToR II you could even tell a character your version of events in the original) but, as popular opinion rightly dictates, Wikipedia and/or a well-worded Google of the game in question will answer all your questions!!
