It is as far as the platforming genre was in its day. Animal Crossing and Wii Sports were not revolutionary, but rather innovative. Revolutions change the way the industry makes games within a small amount of time. 

IE: Super Mario 64 revolutionized open world gaming prompting other games to follow.  Before that open world games already existed on PC. GTA 3 revolutionized what Super Mario 64 revolutionized a generation later. 

Does this suffice for example? No one is following Wii Sports or Animal Crossing. 

GTA 3 following this logic, since almost everything nowadays try to copy its openworld.

TLOUS does not come even close to that.


Going down the "but X did it earlier", wouldn't Driver 2 or Urban Chaos be the revolutionary games rather than GTA 3? ;)
