Walk of Game honors Miyamoto, Mario, Link and more

I can get to the Metreon in about 20 minutes. How about I be the official GameTavern representative? I'll take pictures and video. All I need is for someone to design me a GT t-shirt to wear.

I agree with you on the Halo award. I think it's just a phase. I mean, it seemed like Goldeneye was a lot more popular and 'legendary' than Halo. All the other award receivers are deserving.

Halo!??? Not GoldenEye?!? What are these people thinking?

I'm sorry but I must say GoldenEye was the best FPS of it's time.....Halo it's ..legendary.....

I think Bill Gates might've bought a star for $5,000,000,000

Heh, that'd be neat.

Yeah, it's kinda lame. 5 years ago we would've had Spyro and Crash Bandicoot go up there, and I think we know how popular those franchises are now...

That'd be great! Want to post some pre-production sketches of the sweatshirt's design to arouse rumors and speculation?

Hehe...arouse.

Agreed, Halo is good, but not Walk-of-Game-able.

More likely if Halo is going up there Jak & Daxter would be up there too.
So would Metroid...
So Would a lot of games...

HALO DOESN"T BELONG IN THERE!

I agree with 95% of the choices

I agree with everyone else. Halo is an awesome game, one of my favorites, but it hasn't stood the test of time. If in 5 years are so, people are still breaking out the Xbox to play Halo, then it desearves its star. Heck, as far as FPS's go, I believe the orriginal Half-Life and especially the add-on Counter-Strike desearves this more.

The results would probably be different if they were voted on by people in the industry instead of your everyday Joe.

no, halo doesn't deserve to be on there... especially while it's on the current generation.... who inducts players in to the hall of fame in baseball when they are still playing...

Well, I think it is modeled more after the Hollywood Walk of Fame which I believe does induct actors and actresses when they are still acting. However, probably not as quickly as they did for Halo.
