Ultimately, I think a lot of this stuff comes down to personal preference. Some people like games with lots of intricate systems and mechanics at play, others prefer games that are mechanically simple. I would also stress that simplistic mechanics can still allow deep gameplay. For me, that's actually the ideal situation. My favorite games are usually the ones that are quick to pick up, difficult to master. I like it when the mechanics are simple enough to grasp easily, but open-ended in a way that allows flexibility and improvisation. I think that was one of Halo's biggest advantages when it first launched. The way Bungie handled physics created a sort of "if you think something should be possible, then it probably is" situation that is still rare in videogames even today.
