Let's say we had to basically sum up videogames to some different civilization unaware of what it is. Now, which character or symbol would you show them? For example, i would show them Mario, while not my favorite, the cultural impact Mario has had, I think he would be gamings symbol. He shows all thats good in gaming. Don't think personal favorite or whatever, think general impact.

Now, I scoured the forum for this and found nothing[I hope not].
