So as you know the Greatest Video Game Hero thing is going on in Gamespot and Bub and Bob have upset Master Chief and it seems that they might do it again against Sonic. At the the time of this post it is currently at:
50% Bub and Bob and 50% Sonic
You can see this and more here.

Bub and Bob are actually beating Sonic
" I don't care about it after I read THIS. "I think the point of this is you shouldn't care at all, either way. Because its asinine. If you're at all invested in the winner of things like this, and the random weekly "best lists" game sites do just for extra hits, you're part of the problem when it comes to how gamers are percived.
" So as you know..."Totally didn't... hell, I didn't even know Gamespot started doing those character battle things (though I know their sister site, gamefaqs, does).
Sonic should win for having a bunch of games I actually cared about way back in the day. I've never touched a Bubble Bobble game.
" @Diamond: I have no idea what you're talking about. People who both frequent 4chan regularly *and* comment regularly have always been on the extreme end of childish. There is no new and old 4chan. "Old 4chan wouldn't have voted on a Gamespot poll, they would have probably used a line like 'not your personal army', or went against the wishes of the OP.
Hey, man, Bub & Bob is fucking awesome. I'm more concerned about "the Prince" getting 30% against Mario. Fucking Mario! Who the hell is the Prince? It's not even the same prince in all the Prince of Persia games so his character is bullshit anyway.
Then they would have promptly called up Tom Green and told him to do a barrel roll." @AndrewB said:

"I don't care about it after I read THIS. "When Bub and Bob started beating Master Chief I was sure there had to be some influence on the voting from an external site, if not 4chan then a similar site like Ebaum's World. When I saw this thread I was just about to post that this seemed like the work of the notorious 4chan and sure enough there they are. Well, this video game character contest is ruined.
I really do hope that Bub and Bob win this whole thing. They really do demonstrate all what heroism is about. I mean, they aren't some freaking Hedgehogs that run fast and yell out annoying catchphrases. They aren't stupid military commandoes that think they're so cool. They're just two dinosaurs doing what they can to help out.

Honestly why are people taking this contest so seriously? Who gives a shit about a Gamespot online poll? I've voted for Bub and Bob twice now." I don't care about it after I read THIS. "
lol gamespot. what a sham. creating a tournament bracket system for something you vote on?!?! that is the most asinine thing i have ever heard of. OF COURSE people are going to foul that sort of thing up. what a joke. this is what happens when gamers try to run a competition where fanboys can affect the outcome.

I don't think Gamespot actually meant for it to be a serious decider of who is the greatest hero.

" I don't care about it after I read THIS. "While dumb, and yeah obviously Gamespot dont care a single bit about it, it would of went the same way regardless. Everyone knows pretty much anyone is a better character than fucking Master Chief, especially Bub and Bob.
It maybe rigged but I am voting Bub & Bob as far as I can. The whole poll is dumb to begin with, and relying on the general internet population to determine the outcome about as worthwhile as any of the awards shows where people win due to viewer response.
People use 4chan for something other than pr0n? News to me.
