Well, there are really two ways to think of a "classic" game. You could just mean older games, and put a limit on it like anything before the N64. You could also mean a game that will live on through the ages, that people will still be playing 20 years from now. It could be as new as a year old. You would call them "modern day classics". Yea classic as in great like the greatest hits. Or classic as in old. Some classic as in great games would be for me, FFVII, Breath of fire III, Super mario kart, double dragon, streets of rage, street fighter, mortal kombat, megaman, sonic, mario bros, metal gear, donkey kong country, toe jam and earl, perfect dark, etc...
