What do you think a great game should look like? What makes a game good? What should we expect from a game?

It all depends on the genre and what kind of game design in mind.

Usually it is mixture of depth in gameplay, balance, control, story, presentation, graphics, sound, pacing, and if possible multi-player.

All aspects of a game contribute to the final result. Tight and functional gameplay mechanics, well-designed controls, artistic design, impressive graphics and effects.
