I absolutely need some kind of story in the large majority of my games. If a game doesn't have any kind of story, I won't be playing it for very long if at all.
The one exception so far has been Left 4 Dead, but both of those games do have a story. It's hidden all over the place. The character interactions mixed with all the graffiti and the various bits of wreckage strewn about, it's all significant. That amount of world building and the amount of story told through the subtleties is part of what makes it such an addictive game.
