Fly did a good job breaking down the Game Informer cover. To some extent, what we see here is a question of who was and wasn't included. On the other hand, it's pretty representative of a problem within the industry.
Anyway, I'm going to throw a question to you now: Which 30 characters from the past decade would you have included on the Game Informer cover?
I have to dash so I can't give all my choices now, but I will say that Dante is a pretty glaring omission.
