The Power of a Narrative: Breaking the Juvenile Stereotype of Gaming

I love Android Netrunner although I don't play as much as I wish I could, because the cards come out at a set pace, and no booster packs are required to get cards - so, no randomness! You just buy the expansions as they come out.

It's one of the best games I've ever seen for tying in its narrative/theming with the actual gameplay mechanics as well - heavily cyberpunk themed, and for example, when you take 'brain damage' you reduce your max hand size, but when you take enough brain damage to make you go below 0, your runner 'flatlines'.
