I like games and gaming but I remember while playing a lot of bad SNES games I went BACK to the older NES and found some of it's games better. The game needs to be fun to play, have replayability, good music, be easy to play (as in not TOO complicated not neccessarily a game with a hard challenge) and again be fun. Things to find, things that bring you back to playing it. I'd reccamend, if you are looking for a good game to play now on a next gen system like XBox360 or PS3 Red Dead Redemption since it allows you to do pretty much anything you want.
