The rule of thumb for any medium, up to and including video games, is to make people experience the piece first, and not think about the medium itself. If I write a book, I want to make people forget that they are reading a book.
In Shadow of the Colossus, I forgot that I was playing a game - not consciously, but on some level. I liked it more for that.
