Tim Schafer? David Braben? or my personal favourite choice: Richard Garriot?

Okay, I'll think of some questions to ask Romero - I'm mostly interested in the old id days and the early years of Ion Storm, with the early failures that were Dominion & Daikatana.

Greg Costikyan
 
There are a number of game designers who would like to see the concept of abandonware formalized. One of the most vocal abandonware proponents has been designer Greg Costikyan, who argued the case for abandonware in a New York Times article. In that article, he states, "Software is about as ephemeral as you can get, yet preserving it is essential. Illegal abandonware sites are providing a critical service to game designers and scholars and gaming enthusiasts. They do not, however, provide a lasting and satisfactory solution to the problem because they are illegal." He calls for the creation of an online game museum which would acquire the legal rights to provide older games to the public, thus preserving the games for future players.
[Stephen Granade]

So I suggest him for the first interview!
