While normally I would criticize your polling lacking many great video game series, or at least an "other" choice, you did say "in this poll" at the end of your question, so I voted for Mario.
Yeah, I went for Crash Bandicoot. Aside from the later ones (Ugh, Twinsanity), the series has alwayd been top-notch.
im a little sad no Final Fantasy,Halo,or Zelda.but ill go with MGS they always have great story lines and good endings.
