i think planescape did it best. you could be evil and then repent and become good. it was pretty cool. that way you could also slaughter everyone right up to the end and still "beat" the game. anyway, that's the one i feel got it right.

overall, the alignment thing in games is almost as horrific as it can be in real life. bleah!
