I don't agree with Portal. All my gaming friends were talking about it to my non-gaming friends the other day, saying it's so great because it's a puzzle game but it has an awesome story as well.

Clever writing and a good atmosphere...but the plot's pretty simple...you're a test subject in a facility run by a crazy robot...you disobey its orders, kill it, and escape.

The writing, characerizations, atmosphere and believability are also part of the story. Having a simple plot doesn't mean it's not deserving of being called one of the best.
