I am digging games that know what they want to be when they grow up (get played) and tell the players how to successfully do so. I have friends who would strongly disagree with me, who dig those systems (GURPS, HERO, d20) that claim to be blank slates for the players to fill in.
I have been having more fun with games that have a razor sharp purpose and rules that back up their play really well.
An old gaming buddy referred to me as a game snob due to my love of these games. I replied, "Yes. Yes, I am."
