Books have more senses than movies and games, because in books, you can describe touch feelings, smells, temperatures, etc., thus giving readers a multisensorial experience. In movies you can only rely on sound and image. Zero other senses. Smell in books is superior to smell in movies.

I wouldn't say zero sense. When I watched sin city, I could smell the yellow guy. It all depends on how the story is presented. The color scheme of sin city definitely has sensory effect beyond what you can see.
great example! that's so true
