Might have been interesting if you had added "Shrek 2" as an option.

To me the results seem unsurprising given that the voting demographic have 1 thing in common: that is, they use VS.

Within that demographic you have sub-sections of: gamers, database guys etc, so, I think that the votes were pretty much going to fall that way.

Including Shrek would have added an option which could compete with the same share of the voting audience.

I cant believe that there are so many people waiting for Halo2. I am not even a fan of playing video games.

What would have been interesting would be to compare the anticipation level for VS 2005 with the first release of VS.Net

I love console games, and have an Xbox, but don't have the reflexes for Halo, so I voted for VS2005. Now if KotOR II was on the list, I might have had to think about it a bit...

Instead of Halo, you should have had Half Life 2... its been in development and been delayed for about as long as SQL Server 2005 has...

I remeber the time where I had an Amiga 500 from Comodore. I loved to play adventure games like Monkey Island or Indiana Jones :)
