Closer... but no. Another hint - it was never an arcade game.
Thought about that, but Dig Dug was a game where you buried other things with fruit, not the fruit itself.

I'll try one.
Embittered after being deprived of government assistance, you join up with a group of criminals to topple the government. Since birth, your goal in life has been to protect and assist this one creepy girl. You hunt down your predecessor, join forces with him, and then guide him into killing what used to be your dad.

Heh, that almost sounds like a hodgepodge of a number of different final fantasy games.

That's not quite Dishonored.
No, it's a single game. Uhh, PC games still count, right? Mine was a partial description of quite a well-known game that has been around for quite a bit of time now.
Close enough, Dune II: Battle for Arrakis.
Dune II was the first Dune I played (in fact, it was the first RTS of any kind I ever played), so now I get them reversed.
I ALWAYS built platforms. Stupid worms.

I don't think there actually was a Dune 1 game, They just called it Dune 2 to make it sound like a sequel to the movie. And I'm pretty sure that other than Hertzog Zwei, which was a console game, Dune 2 was actually the first RTS game.
"So let me get this straight. You want me to open a massive interdimensional portal right in front of our main gates, and allow the enemy's demonic hordes to pour out, so you can go in and steal their magical artifact?"
"Yes."
"And what will we be doing while you're off burgling?"
"Fighting the demonic hordes coming out of the portal."
"Will it be dangerous?"
"Yes, probably lots of you will die."
"... And why would I agree to this?"
"Yes."

"Oh ho, welcome to my gallery! Come in and see some art!"
"I tell ya, this week's items are as rare as they come. I'm almost green with envy that I can't buy 'em all!"

Too easy. TF2.
I'll admit to being curious, though part of me wonders if there are too many that might fit that.
