On the one hand, they didn't get my vote because it's old and busted, but on the other hand, Dr. Mario jokes are just the best jokes. They could post the same comic next week and still win.

On the second to last option, I think you mean GAMESTOP. Not BestBuy.
And you guys are STILL on about the stupid Captain Planet thingy? Well... All right, I admit. It was pretty epic that first time. But no joke lasts forever.

I voted for the first one (Bioshock). I must admit, I use the shotgun for my Big Daddy Finishing Move.

1) VGCats because of my rampant puzzle game fanboyism kicking in.
2) Hungry Hungry Hippos (2 of 3 falls), Singstar 80's (THE FINAL COUNTDOWN~!), Pokemon (Diamond/Pearl, no holds barred), Marathon (XBLA version - first to puke loses) and original Mario Bros. as the grand finale.
