Durden, I love the name/signature.

One question though:

"Our fathers were our models for God. If our fathers failed us, what does that tell you about God?!"

Myamota. Ya, I played Shenmue and that is my favorite game of all time. But Myamota made all those Marios, and Zeldas which were the some of the greatest games of all time. He also made Metriod which is sweet. They are both good but Myomato has made many great games.

[LynxFX]

I don't know either of those two so I'll go with:
ID
Epic Games
Valve

All tied.

Actually, he did not do Zelda and he DEFINATELY had absolutely NOTHING to do with Metroid. All he has to his credit is the original Donkey Kong (Rareware did Donkey Kong Country) and the Mario games. Period. A highly overated programmer IMHO.
