Basically, the top 4 right now are Halo, Zelda, Mario and Sonic The Hedgehog

and it's not the oscars of the gaming community, it's the walk of fame for the gaming community.

There is something very wrong with the world if current last place entry Ms. Pac-Man doesn't earn a place on the gaming "Walk of Fame." I mean, I know Halo's popular and all, but let's have a little historical perspective, people.

Think of it this way...Lindsay Lohan is the "it" girl now, but does she deserve a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame before Audrey Hepburn?

Someone should mobilise the gamefaqs crowd, then the top 4 would look like this:

1. Cloud
2. Sephiroth
3. Final Fantasy VII
4. Link

Nostalgia should not over-procede design and execution.

Ding ding ding!

Halo > Pac-Man

 

[Whimsical Phil]

Exactly. Luckily, Ms. Pac-Man is an extremely well designed and executed game.

Ding ding ding!

Halo > Pac-Man

And on a related note, Apples > Oranges.

Nostalgia should not over-procede design and execution.

ms pacman >>>> halo, though. it's pretty brilliantly designed and flawless executed.

 

[Mashing]

Has MC done more for this industry than say Mario?
