The best thing about awards shows is that they give us an opportunity to get mad and argue when the winners are announced. PC Gamer's Ted Litchfield, for instance, goes blind with fury every time Astro Bot wins another Game of the Year award. But in a nice change of pace, the BAFTAs are giving us an opportunity to get mad and argue before the awards by putting a very big and essentially impossible question to the internet at large: What is the most influential videogame of all time?
BAFTA—the British Academy of Film and Television Arts, but it does videogames now too—doesn't make the question any easier by nailing down what exactly it's looking for, but rather leaves it open to individual interpretation.
