We all made it happen. The man, the myth, the legend himself, Shigeru Miyamoto, has crushed the competition on the voting block and secured his rightful place at the top of the list for Time Person of the Year. Of course, this doesn't actually mean he's going to be on the cover of Time magazine, but it's good to know he's at the top of the list. If anything, this will mean that Stephen Colbert will make fun of him on his show (check past the break).Good job, everyone. You've done your duty, soldier, now enjoy some much-needed R & R.

I just about had a milk-through-the-nose moment the first time I saw his "K-Pop Video" bit. Excellent.

To be completely honest, I don't think he needed Time's APPROVAL to be recognized as the world's best videogame producer. It's more of like a state of mind. And in the end, isn't that what videogames are really all about [excuse the cornyness of last statement]?
