Plot and storyline. Period. Great plots and storylines are what draw people in to playing it, relating with the characters, and stuff like that... -|=> :evil:

I beg to differ kane I think if it has a cool enough fighting system and leveling system a lack of a plot is okay as long as you keep the action coming. A great example of this is the Diablo Series.

Plot and storyline are very important for some games but a really good game engine with great controls are also important. Take The Thing for Xbox. It is horrible. The plot is cool. the atmosphere is cool ( no pun intended) but the controls SUCK!! They suck the crome off a trailer hitch. Can't run and shoot. You are FORCED to stand there in one SPOT while shooting at your opponents (ALIENS!!! :w00t: ) who run around you like your an idiot. The critters are neat and the base looks like the movie (down to the saucer hiden under a shed) but the controls make the game nearly unplayable.
on the other hand I have a really old game called Killing Time. It is very low graphic wise (barely above 8 bit) but it is intertaining because you have to play it in a dark room. The lighting in the game makes it so anything out side a 12-20 foot radis is lost in shadow or is a barly persepatable movement in the dark. don't play it often but it is a nice change form flash and glitz (not that theres anything wrong with that :D ) of the games that rely on them for game play.
