Product: Pocket Gamer Hall of Fame | Publisher: Steel Media

by Richard Brown

What do baseball, rock 'n' roll, and the WWE have in common?

Nope? Give up? God, this is too easy.

Well, each of these fine cultural institutions has its own official Hall of Fame.

(As a side-quest, see if you can guess which two Halls of Fame legendary US outfielder Pete Rose belongs to. Clue: disregard rock 'n' roll.)

All-time greats

Inspired by these three great establishments and fuelled by equal measures of alcohol and nostalgia, the powers that be at Steel Media have decided the time has come to establish a Pocket Gamer Hall of Fame.

A veritable who's who of the mobile games business, this venerable Hall celebrates the contribution of brilliant writers who have risen to prominence on these hallowed PG pages and left an indelible impression on the site's readership.

Without further ado, then, may I present to you the first* inductees to be elected into the Pocket Gamer Hall of Fame.
