I would assume the art style. I personally love the feel of 80s-90s fantasy art, the type you used to see on the covers of cheap books or all RPGs. I feel there's something less classic-looking about works like this:

...but I can't really tell what it is. Modern games like Dragon Age: Origins or Pillars have something in common with each other in terms of aesthetics anyway, and I don't like them as much as the more classic style. Maybe its that they just sort of look like what they really are, that is, digital paintings instead of organic ones?

I agree, alot of modern day fantasys are realy genaric. I hope that if something like Game of Thones ever gets a video game, that its good and goes for a new style of rpg, mmorpg,exc. what ever it is.

Damn I wish I were at home, I could hook you guys up with some good art just like this:
>Boris Vallejo
>Frank Franzetta
>Michael Whelan (onion stuff)

Sorry I don't have the pics but they did a lot of the stuff you're looking for. Love this style..!
