The previous thread sucks. So now Kasparov says he's ducking, what in your mind are his greatest games?

I remember one where Kaspy paralyzed Petrosian... I need to look for it because it is a fantastic game...

the recent kasparov-kasimdzhanov in linares was not exactly one of the greatest but was certainly one of the most amusing, especially since kasimdzhanov played a completely hopeless position till he lost on time. watching it live on ICC was supremely entertaining ahahaa

His most famous is probably his win over Topolav in Linares 1999

yup. you can search that game on chessbase.com. i think it's better than bryne-fischer. it was an incredible game.
