Aside from LucasArts, adventure games have always been fairly low budget. These large studios are now starting to create games that have better story telling mechanics because they are doing their best to chase down cinema, not copy adventure games. I think the holy grail of big budget gaming for an Executive is something that tells an incredible story and has immensely fun gameplay. That's all there is to it. Mass Effect is pretty damn close and a few others.
