Unique Art Style: This is the number one thing to grab my attention, the style NOT the graphics. A unique style will last throughout time, but graphics will not. For example, Parappa the Rapper has a great style and looks fantastic but the latest Call of Duty has 1000x more advanced graphics... that will just become outdated as time passes. Nothing immerses me more than an beautiful and unique world 
Great Dialogue: This is almost as important as the art style, as it gives the game it's personality. I don't care all too much about the story, I just want all the characters to have something funny to say. Paper Mario TTYD made me want to talk to literally every NPC because they all had so many great lines!
Experimental Gameplay: When a game tries to fuse two genre's together or just aims to try something completely new this always catches my attention. I mean sure I love the classics, but a rhythm-god game? Patapon is a great example it's seamlessly blends two genres together and it just works so damn well, there's really nothing like it.
