the title appears misleading is it only console games? (what i think of when i see video games) or is it all computer games including consoles etc.
There are brilliant games that should be included in such a HOF including but not limited to games like Gauntlet and for me the original ad&d roleplaying games.
In terms of people Mike Singleton sticks out (Lords of Midnight developer) but this was not console/arcade so might be excluded on that basis.
It seams that such a HOF will very much depend on what people like/play who get a say in it and how wide their remit is
I love this sort of claim and counter claim the only people who stand to benefit are the lawyers, whats the betting that bonus' etc turn out to be discretionary and require you to still be working for the company at the time it is paid. (and my formaer employers even required you not to be working a notice period always caused a nice flood of resignations post payment)
Certainly that is the norm in the uk for most big companies to have clauses in the contracts.
The only people who stand to be better off under the whole thing are yet again the lawyers who have enacted the suit.
