Mario Galaxy 1, 2, and Uncharted 2, 3 are the most likely games to become timeless classics. Also worth mentioning is that The Last of Us will probably be best remembered for it's story more than anything. Just a thought, though.

So I think maybe SotC levels of timelessness, but not on the levels of the other 3 games you mentioned.

I have to laught at this, altough only time will tell what is timeless or not The Last of Us is a game that blew ppls mind, after playing for like 2 hours I had felt like my inards had been ripped out of me and put back in place some 3 times already, it basicaly gave anyone the blueprint of how to make a very deep character driven storyline work on a videogame flawlessly. When anyone tries to diminish it with an argument about "well itll be remembered because of its story" I dont understand the point, like this is bad somehow ? You know why Mario Galaxy isnt remembered because of its story ? Because it has a ridiculous bad and shallow one. Does that make it a lesser game ? No cause it is very fun and has gorgeous settings and super well construted levels.  There are different ways to make a good game, the media is way past the days that the only way to make a game was have a character that jumps from one plataform to the next.

There was absolutely no belittlement to The Last of Us in my post. The story part was just something I noted (and you did too). Stop making assumptions.
