Develop magazine has conducted a poll of video game creators, attempting to find out who their 'hero' is, and mastermind emerging as the developers' favourite.

A whopping 3,000 game makers were on the original list, with 9,000 developers participating in the survey.

Miyamoto nabbed the top spot from John Carmack, and Sid Meier, while PaRappa mastermind Masaya Matsuura also made the top ten, ahead of tenth placed newcomer (Braid).

More on all things development-y as we get it.
