Great games doesn't need good stories. Gameplay mostly make up for it.

Obviously a good mix of both is nice but gameplay is more important because without good gameplay then the game is boring/poor to play. I do love a good story though.
Agreed. The greatest story in the world is worthless without good gameplay, whereas a terrible story but awesome gameplay can still make me want to play the game. I cite pretty much every FPS game ever as proof.
Id say its either one or the other
like a game can have a great story but gameplay is horrible (FF13, FF8,)
or a game can be really fun to play but the story is horrible (katamari, Mario, Sonic,)
or just games like FF10 that have both
and Metal Gears, and Devil May Crys
I play primary Rpg, Sport and a occasional Racing titles so for me personally - Gameplay is very important. Great story is a foundation of every memorable and great Rpg game so obviously it's crucial as well. Depends on a genre, for me however, am leaning toward gameplay but story remains important.
