The two Zelda games on the N64. I just beat Majora's Mask again a few days ago and I can't tell you how many times I've played Ocarina of Time. I also find myself going back to play Half-Life 2 and Final Fantasy VII every once in a while.
Games that will hold up to this day, and probrably, forever.

I'm going to have to go with the first three Mega Man games, simply because everything else I was gonna say is taken. Those are still incredibly fun now. And also Tetris, but that's a given.
That's not to say that it will never be outdated, the graphics and such will become painful over time. But they have certainly done a good job of holding up, Valve uses modified versions of Source for every game they make and it's been almost seven years....
Hell, the ORIGINAL Half-Life still holds up pretty damn well. But the very core of those games is atmosphere, pacing, storytelling and level design. The whole shooting aspect had obviously been done before, possibly done better, but I haven't played anything quite like the Half-Life series, the second one ranks up there with Resident Evil 4 and Metal Gear Solid 2 as my all-time favorite games.Sp3ratus said:

You're allowed your own opinion, but I still say it's wrong. Maybe it's the whole "Demon of Razgriz" thing, maybe it's the sentimental value, but I still think that 5 is the best in the series. Blaze > Mobius, Scarface, and everyone else. Also, Ace Combat 6 didn't happen.lazzars said:
Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines just keeps getting better and better, the way I see it. Its sheer ambition just embellishes it the more unadventurous RPG's I play.
I disagree, and I think the very existence of this thread, and the fact that so many of us agree on the same games, is proof enough for that.Trolldor said:
Pokemon Red/Blue.
I still manage to play one of these annually and will probably do so for many years to come.

Ico and the Last Guardian. Both games were beautiful, and even were I to play them today, with their crappy graphics and all, I think I'd still enjoy them. Maybe Okami as well, for the same reasons.
Also, Shogun and Rome Total War make the list for me, and KotOR. I actually went back and played KotOR again just a couple of months ago, for the sake of nostalgia, and finished it in its entirety, despite the graphics now being old and outdated, and the combat mechanics being so damned clunky.
