@ codzprc

I'm not really a Metallica fan. The image was just the best I could find to represent a visceral music experience. Plus, it matched up nicely against that wussy Mii.

I disagree on computers... without RL computers, there wouldn't be video games.

And on plants, I'll hint toward Black Sabbath's Sweet Leaf for a clue.

sorry if some of these have been suggested but I don't want to read all 105 comments

game shows: smash tv vs. any boring real game show

the army: call of duty (or any war game) vs. the guy from that 10 year old show Mail Call

bullies: Bully vs. that guy from A Christmas Story

hell: Doom vs. hell

halos: Halo 3 vs. a halo (winner is real life)

if I could make some suggestions for another article:

Gears

Boxing (Punch-Out)

Mushrooms

Farming

Assassins

surgery (Trauma Center)

World War 2 (uum... maybe not.)

Greek history (God of War, etc.)

rabbits (Rabbids)

hunting (real world wins)

hope I helped in any way!

We need more articles like this. Also, new idea (I don't have time to read through all the comments, but I think that I am the first to wonder about this)
CELEBRITIES

Real World = Movie stars, CEOs, politicians, etc.

Video Games = Mario, Kratos (GameInformer officially called him a Sony game celebrity the likes of Mario and Sonic, although I think that they were referring to old Sonic), Gears, Freeman, B Company, Captain Price, etc.

Winner = Whoever you choose
