You should elaborate on what you mean, but the most obvious answer is probably Xenogears.

He probably meant it as in: "the masterpiece that will set an unchallengable standard in its medium", not in the literal sense of "is there an NGE game?".

Every single story beat in Persona 3 is similar to Evangelion, especially after Ryoji is introduced.

I don't really understand what you want out of this.

DP is only a failure in terms of gameplay. In order to be on the same level as The Room it would need to be a spectacular failure across the board that acts like it's a massive success.

So... Fallout 4?
