I know the walk of game has been discused allready.....however, I recently checked out the rankings and I didn't like what I saw.
No way should halo and master chief be 1 and 2 with link and mario below.....I am not saying this as a fanboy, but as someone who believes that credit should be given where it is deserved...... Mario singlehandedly created the videogame industry and deserves the number one spot. As characters I think links history makes it more deserving of second than third.
Go here and give credit to whom it belongs (:cough: mario and Llink :cough: ) :

Maybe your right. I saw this site when I a load of PS2'ers were bitching about the same thing. 1st HALO 2nd HALO.
I'm not sure of the rule or what not but in todays game market MC and Halo is far more influencial than Mario, and Link

"Honoring the icons and pioneers of the videogame industry."
Mario and Link deserve top nomination.

I have a problem with that site to begin with. Whats up with the choices? Theres Final Fantasy but no Goldbox series? They have the Sims 2 creator but not even the guy (name?) who created Tetris? They have Halo and no Quake? Parappa the Rappa is there but no Castlevania? I never heard of that site but it reminds me of when I watched the Video Game Awards. Yuck. But I do have to agree with the rankings though. Not that many people care for Nintendo anymore. Halo is like the thing to vote for when you really want to stay away from Nintendo. Atleast the choices didn't have Snoop Dogg.

well mario first and link somewhere in the top 10,
Sonic would be in there as should Ryo (Shenmue)
SEGA FANBOYNEsS ALERT :uhh:
i'd nominate / give the award to some of these characters because of the influence and power these characters have held cept for Ryo. But this thing is annual RIGHT /?/?/? we don't wan't to walk on Mario's Fat ass nose every year.

Doesn't say annual....says first-of-its-kind. If it were annual then it wouldn't be honoring the past pioneers, it would be honoring current hype. Seems to be doing that anyway.

I have my own little hall of fame for the best of the best. There have only been six inductees. I might let FFIII in late this year after the holidays. My hall of fame:
Tetris (2000)
Super Mario 3 (2001)
A Link to the Past (2002)
Ocarina of Time (2002)
Super Metroid (2003)
The Legend of Zelda (2003)
