Mario is the Citizen Kane of videogames though.

SMB3 will be annihilated, obliterated, ground to pieces, beaten and utterly destroyed. It has nothing to do with Half-Life's possible quality, it's simple math. Unless all those hordes of CS kids think that Counter-Strike is a game on its own.

Look, I am a terrible gamer-the only games I ever beat were strategy games-I rarely ever was able to beat a console game that was not strategy, like Iron Tank, or Bat Man. I mean, I beat TMNT-Turtles in Time and Super Mario Kart and yoshi's island or whatever the name for the first Mario Game for SNES was: I never beat any Mario games for the NES, not the one, not even SMB3-furthest I ever got was the first world in the final land.

Still, I have had a lot of fun gaming, and there is only one game at which I had more fun than SMB3, and that was Super Mario Kart.

So I will vote for SMB3 ahead of any game other than SMK.

I proudly, PROUDLY voted for halflife.

However, I would like to say that it is a blight on the entire gaming community that Deus Ex lost to Doom by the margin that it did. Come on, people, Deus Ex!

I am disgruntled that Diablo II beat out Fallout 2 . Stupid gamers!

And Civ2 should have been the Civ game instead of Civ3.

I agree Civ2 should have carried the mantle. The thing is, I think Civ3 did better than Civ2 would have done.

No. Doom is a much more important game that Deus Ex.

Though there are some other bonehead picks on that listing. Diablo 2 didn't just beat Fallout 2, it beat KOTOR in its first round .

SMB3 was the game that showed everyone videogames were not just a sideshow, but big business and a source of real money-that and it was the most fun NES game ever.....
