This one's impossible. Banjo's such a good game, but Tetris is Tetris. I've spent so many hours in Tetris, in various forms. My initial impulse was to vote for Banjo but Banjo's not as iconic or...genre-building (something like that) as Tetris.

Wow, for real? Banjo Kazooie has 2 votes when it's against the most perfect and successful puzzle game ever made?

Easy vote for Tetris, Banjo-Kazooie was a good, charming platformer, however it did take the 'collect-a-thon' thing a bit too far. Arguably bested by Banjo Tooie as well.

Banjo was awesome back in the day but it can't stand alongside Tetris.

So was mine :)
I never thought I would feel this way, but now I know. Now I know. I never thought I would see things as I see them now, but now I know. I never thought I would hurt so bad, but now I know. Now I know.

Vote banjo it's screwed anyway and if you like it may as well give it some sympathy votes.
