There is so much to be valued in a game by different gamers, no one could possibly agree on which elements are most important. Though I will give you Ocarina. That game continues to speak to all types of gamers and remains one of the greatest constructed video games of all time. I’m not sure I agree with your qualifications for a Citizen Kane game.

I almost would be more inclined to compare Final Fantasy VI to something more essentially dramatic such as Aida or any number of classical Operas. Indeed, though there was an opera scene *in* Final Fantasy VI, its plotline itself also (happened to? Or intentionally?) resembles that of an opera. It will be interesting to see what comes out of these "art" genres of games that have been becoming more prevalent lately.
