@Foggynotion:
Parappa was cool? Not sure I'm buying that one...

@ShaggE:
And after him, I'm sure there was at least one dog in the Monkey Island series that should outrank Parappa.

@TitillatedOcelot:
If Amaterasu is the _real_ Amaterasu, it's more like a sun-goddess in wolf's clothing.

@huginn - No I will not give you a hug!:
And dogs are also part of the canine family. So are foxes (depending on who you ask), dingos, coyotes, and jackals. But try entering a wolf into a dog show on that basis, and you'll probably be having a chat with the local cops. Besides, Link technically qualified more as a werewolf (there wolf, there castle) than a real wolf.

@Josh*: Haha, too true. Bandicoot is a marsupial. Not even CLOSE to a dog. I'd believe rodent first.

Well, for Twilight Princess, I renamed my horse "my penis", something far better than Epona, as it led to some of the some of the funniest and most surreal gaming moments ever.

To everyone complaining about Agro:

Agro was a soleless bore. Epona, on the other hand... she(?) was all class!

Am I the only one wondering what "I Can Has Cheezburger" has to do with videogames? Not that I'm complaining about the judging, because I think PaRappa is a decent choice.

What about Link? Given all the questi- I mean, fetching he does getting this, that, and what not, he's a great dog!

Plus he actually, you know, played a canine in his last game.

Wolves ARE apart of the Canine family after all. Canius Lupis.

Sherlock_the_Barbarian — Sun, 09 Mar 2008 12:12:33 MDT

What a moronic poll, if nothing else evidenced by the fact that their question resulted in Parapa being considered the "best."

It looks like MTV online is just as asinine and shitty as the channel, itself.

Agro not winning best horse told me this was a load of bull, now the Duck Hunt dog gets beat by Parappa; they'll probably hold a Best Plumber in Videogames and have some unknown guy beat Mario and Luigi
