Have a vote.

Any of you with true moral values will vote "Metal Gear", as have many internet users on various imageboards already.

Have fun.

Metal Gear? Seriously? It's not even that great of a game. Lol @ "Vista". I wouldn't doubt it if Bill Gates had something to do with the vote calculation on that one.

I voted Desu already. That was a week or so ago when 4chan found out about this and was urging people to vote Desu.

I didn't just read that.

I voted Icrecrown. I'm sure that's going to catch the sentiments of many WoW playing NASA employees.

kekekek.

Except that the rest of us are somehow controlled by what goes on there, and what goes on there is a juvenile smattering of child porn, mud kips and "I'm firin mah lazar!!!" Seems like an awful poor use of such hallowed anonymity.

4chan, like all things has a good and bad side.

Aside from the immaturity on /b/, its a fascinating and generally very funny site.

4chan gets a bad reputation from /b/. That is where the meme's, CP and other trash filters into. Stay out of /b/ and /v/, and the rest of the site is useful.

Anonymity gets rid of the social structures that form even on the internet, where they should not exist. True anonymity gives the freedom of ultimate expression.

I just don't get videogame culture.
But on the contrary, Battletoads is one game I've actually played.
If it were up to me, I wouldn't name a spacecraft after it though.

I agree that they will most likely block any submissions they don't like. Sadly.
