Gamefaqs game of the decade poll has Halo3 v Sunshine tomorrow. I'll be
surprised if Mario gets 5% of the votes.
These are the same people that almost think RockBand2>Deus Ex (Deus won by
752) and Fable lost to TF2 by 37 votes though so maybe Mario will get 10%.

I just cast my vote for SMS, and currently Mario is losing, but at 47%
of the vote. Closest contest yet.

And then it shifted. Mario got 14% in the final tally. Heavy falloff
during the day.

I've no doubt that gamefaqs is a hotbed of xbox fanboys, but even then,
isn't sunshine generally considered one of the "lesser" mario games?

I though it was technically pretty impressive, and often fun to play,
but did seem a bit lacking in some way... I dunno, personally I just got
sick of that island and the damn tropical theme. One nice thing about
many other entries in the series is that they mix it up a lot.
