I wanted to keep it as short as possible, that's why I chose the original "Enhancing Gameplay with power" title.
anyway...
Not saying Doom3 is or isn't on the list, but what's wrong with that?
I think there's a lot of potential for Doom3 to be an incredible experience. That's doesn't say it'd have to most innovative or deepest gameplay... then again, maybe we should stop using the term "gameplay" to describe how exciting a game is to play/experience.
It's funny that I eventually brought that point up, because here's one of the many paragraphs that didn't end up in the final topic. I think it says a lot.
"
As I stated, the gameplay in both these games[RL and RE] are "weak", by todays top standards, yet, playing them proved to be a blast. Call it, fallacy, but one thing's for sure, it's not a contradiction, because I really did enjoy playing them. You see, It's scenarios like these that makes me question of we'll have to extend the definition of "gameplay" to include concepts of immersion and atmosphere due to technology. but, that's a totally different topic altogether. 
"
DeathsHand, see above paragraph.

Really I guess the most important things, IMO, that are enhanced by power is like... A.I., the atmosphere... like enviornment stuff...

ding, ding, ding... that what the entire topic is saying.
(also, why don't you take a quess at the number one game? You have a lot of dblns already, but, maybe you can give it away to charity
)
By the way, I treated graphics, AI, computing power, etc, as basically ONE nature. Numerous phrases, all one nature. In the thread, I used numerous phrases because I wanted to make it clear that I made NO distinction between any. It's all technology really...

I read it, and I don't really see the point... basically this is a topic about your predictions of games that will have better gameplay because of better graphics or More Power?!?!?!?

I'm not preticting anything(as I stated), it's just a selection of 5 game that I think best relate to the topic. As I told Shadow_link, the title is a bit misleading(and mainly because we unnecessarily have far too specific definition for phrases like "gameplay" or "power").
It's all in the topic, you just have to maintain focuses.
here's a quote I extracted... it's from the 7th paragraph(the one above the Metroid pic). If you don't get the point after reading it, then, I'm affraid you never will.
"Of all the games out there(that I know enough about), I've narrowed it down to 5 incredible games. We'll look at how they each apply to what you've read so far. Specifically, how technology can influence our gaming experiences. "
That paragrah is as simple as I could describe the topic. Maybe the length inevitably caused a few of you to skip that part... I cautioned not to that.

so many questions and bewildered responses.. so little time to satisfy everyone.
let's see. It's monday right now... I might be able to post it tonight. I'll likely check out the labor day parade today. Hope I'm not too tired when I get home.
Never the less.. the work is done.. just have to post it. Although, I have to find a few necessary pics first.
hope that answers your questions!
PS: Oh yeah, you guys haven't seen the conclusion, that will also deal with any loose ends.
