Oh! I got an idea!

Perhaps next time Dylflon could create an entire division of Old School characters, and the other division consist of "new school" characters, if you would.

In the end, things would boil down to the ultimate "new school" and the ultimate old school character.

But, back on subject, I played the original pac-man too. I own it for the Atari 2600. I remember when I was a little kid I spent countless hours playing that game. I loved it. So I'm not voting blindly here, just becuase I think pacman is "old". I'm just a little tired of this being so predictable.

Contestant 1: I've stared in many many many games. I've had so many secuals you cant count them all. The fact that almost all of my games are exactly the same doesnt matter, because people still love me.

Contestant 2: Ive stared in 1 or 2 games, or maybe a lot, but it doesnt matter because they are all "new". My awesome graphics and DVD rom format make me an automatic underdog in this competition.

Result: Contestant 1 wins.

I don't think it is as much as we like them because they're old, but a lot of these older characters we grew up with. These are the characters that got us into gaming. When I think about Dog from Duck Hunt I remember playing it at my friend's house after school when I was in kindergarten. Duck Hunt was the first game a lot of us cheated at.

And as for Pac-man, I've spent many an hour playing his game. I appreciate Pac-man because he is from an era where games didn't need a story. You had a clear objective and you tried to accomplish it to teh best of your ability. It was fun and it's something that we've lost now.

So if the old school contestant means more to me and I like him/her better, hell yes that character gets my vote.

Contestant 2 can have all the good graphics and dvd-rom features in the world and it won't take away all the good times I had with contestant 1.
