Last time I checked:

- Innovation
- Graphics
- Presentation

Were the top things that make a game great.

Unless we're talking game play, which innovation falls into. Again, what was said wrong in that post?

Innovation and gameplay are NOT the same thing (they don't even have to be related) and gameplay is the single most important thing for a game to be great.

I didn't say innovation and game play were the same thing. I said innovation falls into game play, which it does. Read it again.

Yeah it's true you never said they were the same but innovation does not necessarily fall into gameplay. You can innovate by creating a new lighting engine and it doesn't affect gameplay at all. Also, you don't have to innovate to have great gameplay.

That's why I think your statement that Innovation, Graphics and Presentation are the top things that make a game great is flawed because it doesn't take gameplay into account.
