I recently completed Ico, Fumita Ueda's adventure game for the PS2.Many people see this title and its spiritual successor Shadow of the Colossus as examples of art, rather than video games. I would argue that all video games contain elements of art within them, regardless of genre, design and acclaim.
I think what makes these games so great is that Ueda is able to achieve a high level of heart, emotion, and soul with very simple gameplay mechanics.
Both of these games come with my highest recommendation.
