I think the worst example of this are games like the Phantasmagoria adventure games from the 90s. They felt a little contrived to me, even if they initially did dazzle us with their sweet "graphics".

Games like Grand Theft Auto : Vice City or Red Dead Redemption really borrow a lot from movies and, in my opinion, it works perfectly.
