For me, my most immersive experience playing videogames was in Saints Row IV - I don't even own the game, I was just playing it with a friend. There was just something about the jumping which felt incredibly rewarding. I didn't really care about the plot, or the shooting mechanics, but jumping from one jump upgrade to the next wasted 3 hours of my time - and I'm sure much more if I owned the game. I think that it was a perfectly implemented element, and hence I dub Saints Row IV "Jump Simulator". It was just something that stood out from any other game I've played.
