Every game is perfect for its time. Well, most of them. Think back to 2008 when Oblivion came out - every gamer I knew was was hyping over it, calling it the best game ever and that it couldn't get better than that (besides a few aesthetics, like clothing and weapons that were present in previous ES games, etc). Now Skyrim is coming out this year, and is set to be ****ing amazing. It's doing a million and one things games now do not do, and when you think that in a further three or four years, games will have new features, new markets, new media, etc.

I can't see video games ever stop evolving. Technology will always improve on itself, and with faster computers/consoles with faster processors, more will become possible. In the last year, there's been a couple of 3D releases and the Kinect. Maybe in another twenty years, you'll be able to physically be put into a video game world and experience it all for yourself (maybe not the pain part... I hope). To think it was only a little over a decade ago when if you had a SNES or N64, you were the coolest kid in the world.

What we think will be the perfect video game tomorrow will be old news in a few years when we're thinking about the perfect game then. That's not to say that older games don't work or aren't impressive, but in terms of progression they're very low on the scale.
