Pretty scary when this many people consider the story, something that doesn't even define a game, as the most important part for them. You can have a game with no story. You can't have a game with no gameplay. Which do you think is more important? Sheesh!

I demand examples.

Some of David Lynch's short films, also some of the stuff that Andy Warhol did, and there are plenty of minor experimental and avant-garde films that have no story, they are simply a visual or audio/visual experiences.
