So far it seems I find atleast one person for each group that pisses me off...anyway I'm going with Major Nelson.



Former something....

The visionary behind Wolfenstein 3D and Doom vs. a professional Microsoft shill? Gosh, that's tough! John Romero wins by a nose fucking lightyears.

Major Nelson, even though I haven't forgiven him for that non-event he hyped. Besides, I don't like any of the games Romero is most famous for.

No Doom = no BioShock Infinite for you to hype in your sig. Think about that and repent!



This is as far from a contest as it gets. John Romero, by lighteons.

Doom <3
