What games for you are timeless? Which games that you have played do you think that if you picked them back up in 30 years they'd still be very enjoyable despite being primitive or antiquated in some way in other people's opinions. Examples would be like saying I don't care what the graphics in LOZ look like because it's a great game regardless or saying that even though future Zelda games might only have motion controls doesn't detract from the older games at all. You can put games that just came out as well if you think you won't ever stop playing it.
