In my case the value cames from:
1. Fun: The game is fun then it is valuable. No matter how much hours it takes to get to the credits.
I bet 90% of the people on vgchartz has a copy of Super Mario Bros. (NES)
Splatoon is succesful because of how fun it is.
There are games like FIFA or Assasins Creed, those games are fun as well but they lack....

2. Soul: I mean they make a deep impact in the person who played it. Maybe those people´s minds change the way they afront life.
Super Metroid, Metal Gear Solid, Silent Hill, Shadow of the colossous.
The last time i remember COD has some kind of souls was in the airport mission of COD2.

3. Legacy: They need to be remembered because their contributions to gaming and artistically and technically speaking.
Leged of Zelda, Final Fantasy, Resident Evil, Half Life even the fuckins SIMS.
The witness lacks legacy, it takes some elements from other games and perfects those.(sorry if i mistake my english). Yes, It is original but nothing new.

4. Nostalgic element: After palying it for the firs time, and play it again or get in some kind of touch with it, a game needs to evocate some memories from the time it was played for the first time.
For me i get chills evry time that the main screen from OOt gets displayed. I remember the old days when my wife (back then my girlfriend and myself played the game on saturday mornings) i even remeber the cold abd how we get close inside a blanket.
Metal Gear solid 2 and the 2K hysteria, Halo and the online multiplayer with friends.

5. The money factor:A game needs to be economically valuable.
Since past gen i stop buying games on day one. Nowadays, A game devaluates itself so quickly that its getting so irresponsible to spend great ammounts ofmoney  for something that will lose its "money value" in only a month.
I bet none of you would buy a car that will become half price in a month after release.
Wild Guns, Mega Man, Almost all Nintendo Games.

6. If those elements are fulfilled then we will get a Valuable Game. I mean For gaming community in general.
Chrono Trigger, Ocarina Of Time, Doom, World of Warcraft, Tetris, Super Mario bros 3.

I remember all ofyou that i havent played all the games in existence so maybe i forgot some of your favorites.
