Top five people to have shaped video games
1 Steve Jobs
2 Gabe Newell (co-founder and managing director of Valve)
3 Shigeru Miyamoto (developer of Mario, Donkey Kong, Zelda)
4 Tim Berners-Lee (inventor of the world wide web)
5 Mark Zuckerberg (founder of Facebook)
This is the dumbest fucking list on the Internet at the moment. If you poll a bunch of "gaming executives" and get that as results, you now run a website where you make fun of gaming executives. You'd have to be fundamentally retarded to have Facebook there and you'd have to be a tedious nerd to think the www guy "shaped video games" in any way. Nobody's using a fucking browser to play decent multiplayer games. It's like Brick Dickwad from Activision got embarrassed by his lead programmer on some technical issue right before he took that poll and was going to show that egghead who's in charge by naming Berners-Lee.
Steve Jobs hated video games. He STILL hates video games, even in death. His hatred has crossed dimensions. He hated them so much he helped design a platform with a single button that was hard coded to "return to main menu." Every single iPhone game except that one about the spider is complete shit or a port. There is literally no major, no successful company that hates the concept of games and play more than Apple.
If a list like that doesn't have Myamoto, Wil Wright, Don Woods, Toro Iwata/Ed Boon and maybe Dani Bunten or whoever, just flush your results and try again. Or ensure they get posted to Caltrops where we can make fun of everyone involved.
