If you think it is Master Chief then pick other, but I don't think he is nearly as iconic as the other ones I listed since he hasn't been around as long and we don't even know what he looks like.... I put her on there because she has movies which are actually pretty good which helps her become more iconic.

Re: Biggest Gaming Icon
Clearly its Mario.. you could say Pac Man was at one time, but Mario has consistently been popular since he was introduced.

^ and Pikachu in the late 90s. Sonic, maybe in the early to mid 90s.
But Mario has never lost popularity and has been on top since his debut.

Mario, easily. There was a time when more kids could recognize Mario than Mickey Mouse. I don't think that could be said for any other gaming icon.

Re: Biggest Gaming Icon
I'd say that certainly in Argentina Pikachu is much more recognized that Mario...but the status of Pikachu as a gaming icon is debatable (since the popularity is due to the anime). Mario is well known, but not a lot, mainly due to the fact that Nintendo isn't very popular.
In a sense, the most popular gaming icon in here is Messi, since 90% of people in here when they think of games think of PES, and he's the "mascot" of PES

But yeah, I am. Mario was a non stop spammer so he had to go.

I had to choose "Other" because you forgot to put Tali on the list.
