Make them fun! I would much rather play SNES then PS2 or X-BoX. MK2, you cannot beat it for fun level. Maximum Carnage... the unbeatable game. NHL 94, best hockey game ever IMO.
No real plot or back story. Sacrificing gameplay for graphics. Using foul language and violence to cover up repetitive running around. Crap soundtracks. And Games that can be completed within one day. I hate them all

I'll echo what Cyclops and Maddox said.
Video game makers focus too much on graphics now adays. Sunset Riders and Contra 3...both side scrollers, both use 16 bits of graphics...both stomp 95% of the games produced today.
What pisses me off most today about video games is their prices. I mean why charge 49.99 for a simple game that you'll beat in a day or two, unless you get FF games, then a week, tops. Charge less, please!!!!
a) NOT p*** the player off by going: "I think I'll get stuck on these steps and run around aimlessly like a broken record until the player pushes me, thats right PUSHES me back on track, therefore shattering any perception of this game being realistic"
and
b) NOT p*** the player off by going: "I think I'll stand in between your gun and what you are shooting, I'll be safe there"
.......then there's no need for escort missons at all. Good AI? AI can defend themselves? Then escort missions can be brilliant - but any other way, they are a nightmare.
Also, speaking of escort-type misisons - who hates it in Driving games like Driver and GTA where you've gotta tail somebody (without getting too close or too far behind)? Who the hell wants to play those missions?
like when you had to escort sherry in RE2? or when you had to escort emma in MGS2?

DUDE i still have Sunset Riders! it took me FOREVER to beat! truly a great game. games nowadays really are too easy to get through. Vectorman was also a great game. Earthworm Jim is in the same club(still havent beaten it, but i only play my Genesis like once every summer), and classic Sonic games were f*ckin awesome.
Another thing, why don't you try to scale down how many buttons there are for combos in sports games so it's not so damn complicated. I tryed football on the PS1 awhile back, but I lost focus real fast (that is EXTREMELY HARD for me to do when it comes to video games) and lost horribly. I got fed up and shattered the disc.
TR:AOD isn't easy, instant or short.
It's slow, boring, pointless, full of glitches.
In a word ABYSMAL!
It's the worst in the series and I've played TR3.
Everything is about Graphics.Games these days lack story TERRIBLY compared to games in the 90s'.
I rather play a game that had a powerful story rather than good graphics.Hell i could care less what it looks like!
it seems these days Graphics are all that matter though...

I hate games that they know they are to complicated to play and when you buy it the first level is so bloody hard you just want to kick the person's a$$ that made it.
