Quick Question

An idea crossed my mind recently: Who coined the idea of a "Citizen Kane" of videogames? I realize that the term "Citizen Kane of __" has been used outside of the videogame discussion, so maybe there is no real founder, and it seeped into our dialog on its own. Still, I have to wonder if there is a specific article or anything in print that we can identify as the "first" time the term was used. Who can we credit (or blame)?

I promise I'll write an actual update soon! (I also promise never to use the term Citizen Kane of Videogames ever again.)
