David Crane for me.  All of Activision's titles are classics in my mind and something you can always go back to for a quick fix. :)

Yeah, too bad the poll was for BEST PROGRAMMER, not best game designer. :roll:

844566[/snapback]

 

Is that a jab at the person who started the poll? 8)

 

For the vast majority of 2600 games the roles of designer and programmer were filled by the same person, so I don't know that the distinction makes much difference.
