It has to be fun and engaging.
Can't be a one trick pony, most be more than just about killing everyone, must have puzzles. And they can't be too easy.
Has to have replay value, just because you beat the game does not mean you have finished everything.
Must be abstract to some degree, can't be a game that is just trying to emulate real life in some way.
Examples of excellent games in no particular order:
God of War
God of War II
Mario Galaxy
Mario 64
Super Mario Brothers
Might and Magic IV and V - World Of Xeen (especially the CD Version)
Most of the zelda series....
