  You don't NEED FMV to do that, though.  You seem to think that 10 min. of 
video is necessary for a story.  Why not use in-game cutscenes or one-time 
dialogue pieces?
  Oh, and what about Duke 3D... it only uses small clips (which, it seems, 
aren't actually FMV, but animations)!  Those hardly take up any space at all!
