Features that make you love a game.

For me like, well I don't know what to call it, it's some kind of selectable conversation like Mass Effect, Skyrim and Kingdom Of Amalur Reckoning. Customizable character, import save game from the first game to the second one, open world, new game+ content, lots of things to do and buy and every decision the player made in the first game have its effect on the second the third so on. The combine of Mass Effect, The Elder Scroll, Final Fantasy and Grand Theft Auto would be awesome the best game ever. Mass Effect for its awesome gameplay and features, The Elder Scroll for its big open world, Final Fantasy for its battle system, Grand Theft Auto for lot of things to do and buy. But this is my opinion

[Loony BoB]

Innovation.

Well, a guy can dream!

[Jiro]

And what form would that take? That's even vaguer than saying you want a game that has gameplay.

[Scotty_ffgamer]

Gameplay.

[Bolivar]

Yeah, think some people have missed the plot:

What relatively small things have had a disproportionately large impact on your opinion of a game?

This goes across all games on the platforms, but I like how Sony handhelds save your game state if you run out of battery power. This lets you pick up where you left off when you recharge without saving and is immensely appreciated, given the plummeting battery lives of modern handheld devices.

Actually, that isn't the case. Sony devices go into sleep mode before they totally drain, which extends the battery life considerably. But once fully drained, your current progress is just gone (as is your date/time setting, which I find annoying). It is a nice system, I think. But, while it's a great design element, I don't want anyone to think it actually builds a save state for you or anything. It's the same as closing the top screen on your 3DS or DS, except the system does it automatically.

I used to play a game way back in the day called Sacrifice. Dunno how many of you childrens have heard of the game but two features of the game that made me love it are the replayability and the the musical cues. When a game can fluidly shift tunes based on the events unfolding, I'm very happy. When the game makes me replay it years after I beat it, I'm very happy.

[Pike]

It's just gotta be fun.

That's really all I care about.

[Masamunemaster]

Another thing that is really awesome, when you get new weapons and armor then your sprite changes.

[Mercen-X]

Yes. Also good. I like games that allow you to see how an equippable item affects your image. If it's large enough to be obvious, it should affect your avatar. I don't care about rings or necklaces or shoelaces, but my boots, gloves, pauldrons, and belts should affect how I look.

[Skyblade]

FFVII did something like that with weapons. That was why you couldn't toss the Buster Sword or Gatling Gun: because it would necessitate changing Barrett and Cloud's overworld sprites.

[Masamunemaster]

How about the old days of knowing a characters element by the color of their clothes?

[Ayen]

Alternate costumes in fighting and wrestling games. God do I miss alternate costumes in wrestling games. Why are there four Mick Foleys!?

How do you smurfing turn the PSP off?​ I still can't figure this out.

There's a power slider on the right. Hold it up for several seconds, and it will fully power off instead of going to sleep.

Which frelling sucks, because I have done that accidentally while working Arcade Battle Chains in the Dissidia demo.

You can also pull the battery.
