Mgs1, Super mario bros, FF7, Spyro, Sonic 1, 2, 3, Legend of zelda, Doom, starcraft, Donkey kong ect, these are games which are regarded by most as classics. Great games regardless of when you play them. Thtem prob is is has these gen really produced any, do you see any games coming out now that youll honestly think about in the future telling kids how they missed some great games. This gen seems to have been absorbed by mutilplayer and remember that mutiplayer games will most likely go XBOXlive 1.0 in the future and even if they didn't there would be newer mulitplayer content current gen. Whats even more scary for PS3 owners is that most ps3 games get updated within a few days to fix glitches. What this means is that in the future if you try poping in a game like heavy rain, gta4 ect and you start from scratch without any old game data youll be playing the game with all its glitches '

World of Goo is definitaly a clas$ic game as with Mario. Never played portal. I would say MGS4 is a clas$ic along with TP

There will likely be some that is remembered fondly, and of them some classics.

Gears of War

Crysis

STALKER

Batman aa

Bioshock

CoD:MW (no matter how much I loathe the notion)

Demons souls

SMG

There are likely more that has a shot at becomming classics, but these are games I think has a chance

There is plenty for me. Gears of War, Halo 3, Metal Gear Solid 4, Uncharted 2, Fallout 3, Call of Duty 4, Mass Effect 2, etc. Tons. I don't think of many N64/PS1 era games to be classic, they were too awkward. Maybe MGS, and a couple others on PS1... But even they have lost a good chunk of their playability, unless you try very hard to look past any flaws due to nostalgia. There are countless 2D games that feel classic, because they had time to reach their peak, and quite a few PS2/Xbox era games as 3D started to hit its stride.

Zombies World of Goo Super Mario Galaxy Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Mass Effect Trilogy Portal Team Fortress 2 Gears of War (more likely to be remembered for the cover system that revolutionized TPS this gen) GTA IV New Super Mario Bros.

I don't understand the love for MGS4. It was pretty good, but I didn't even think it was the best MGS.

Yeah it was the first game that came to my mind since it was simple, short, and had plenty of memorable lines.

MGS4, Gears of War, Portal, and the Half Life 2 episodes I consider games that i think will go down in the ages. So yes i think this gen has produced some timeless classics.

We won't know until some time passes by. To me the actual cIassics are those that stand the test of time more, or have such a significant impact on other games.

mario galaxy: it'll probably be remembered as one of the greatest mario platformers of all time. Right up there with SMB3, SMW etc.

Demons Souls: will be remembered as cult classic
