I think we strayed away from my original comment and criticism, which was more aimed at lack of uniqueness of the games on the list, as judged from the trailers, than the quality. Additionally I'd like to point out that I read descriptions of every game on the list besides watching a trailer.

Of course, here I'm opening myself for a valid criticism which might be constructed as "even if a game uses elements of previously told stories and settings, it might do a different spin or do it on a such a new level of excellence (story wise) that it becomes incomparable with previous attempts".

You could also point out that trailer can be manipulated in such a way by a talented director, that would make the game appear new and unique.
