Post Reply New Topic

5 turned out to be too few to adequately do justice to the various excellent characters. So I did 10 instead. Oh, and honorable mention: Kefka.


10. Master Chief


9. Manny Calavera


8. Revan


7. Samus Aran


6. Viewtiful Joe


5. Mario


4. The Prince of Persia


3. Raz


2. Banjo & Kazooie


1. Link

(Might look for pictures later...)

The Helicopter - Jungle Strike (Although the Hovercraft from level 2 needs a shout also)

Azel - Panzer Dragoon Saga (Although any character would do)

Darth Revan - Knights of the Old Republic

Duke Nuken - Duke Nukem 3d ("No one steals our chicks... and lives" )

Bile Demon - Dungeon Keeper

Hmm... screw top 5, I have too many!

New additions:

Wrex from Mass Effect - I avoided the bit which every Mass Effect player knows about! On Virmire.


Garrus Vakarian - also Mass Effect.

Actualy I quite like the looks of Saren when he gets robotic in Mass Effect


But my favirout character from Mass Effect is Tali

I felt really sorry for Saren.


SPOILERS

I convinced him to fight the Indoctrination, but he killed himself and his body was brought back via the implants from Sovereign. It was sad, because I kinda liked him.





Tali's alright, but she does sort of annoy me at times.

Guybrush Threepwood - Monkey Island Series
Nords/Orcs/Dark Elves/Imperials - Morrowind/Oblivion
Duke Nukem - Duke Nukem ha ha
Cloud - FF7
Sephiroth - FF7
Red XIII - FF7
Squall Leonhart - FF8
Irvine Kinneas - FF8
Zell Dincht - FF8
Laguna Loire - FF8
Zidane Tribal - FF9
Tidus - FFX
Vaan - FFX2

1. xemnas\xehanort\xehanort's heartless - kingdom hearts
2. saix - kingdom hearts
3. cloud - ff7
4. sephiroth -crisis core non insane
5. zack fair - crisis core
6. riku -kh2
7. allen - xenosaga
8. sigfried- soul caliber 4
9. tails - sonic the hedgehog
10. albert - legend of dragoon

and that's only the top ten

and i can't believe there is another xemnas fan. i think i have found 8 so far including me.

Spread the Xemnas love. Heh.

I think Dante from Devil May Cry, should get an honorable mention, especialy for scenes like these.

Roxas. I have never played any of the KH games on ps2 but i did once own CoM. I got Days a few days ago and I suddenly got sucked into KH. I even am redubbing sanctuary and Simple and Clean in Spanish and Vietnamese. Roxas has to be my favorite character for some odd reason, IDK why. I can't wait for Birth By Sleep.

Did not want to play Kingdom Hearts, i read the little manga and heh... It looks cute, but not my type =.= .

Other than that, since i don't like making a hierarchy, i'd say that most or some of the heroes (or villains) are on my list. But to say one is better than the other is meh, they all have their own thing that made them enjoyable.

In no particular order:
- Yoshi
- Rayman
- Saix, Demyx, Zxion (Kingdom Hearts)
- Sonic (in the original 2D games. I can't stand all this new 3D garbage)

I forgot...

Here are my top 5


Sonic the Hedgehog


Mario


Ratchet and Clank (i consider them as one character, not 2. they are a great duo!)


Fox McCloud - StarFox


Duke Nukem! (Release DNF already!)

Jazz from Eternal Sonata.

The Guy from IWBTG.

M'aiq the Liar from ES:IV Oblivion.

Golbeza from Final Fantasy IV

Wesker from RE series

Some these are obviously not pure game characters, but to me, their performance in the game makes them worth a mention, even though they're primarily Comic book characters.

Joker, in Batman: Arkham Asylum. Incredible job with this character, cudo's to Mark Hamil for an excellent voice acting again!

Deadpool in Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2. Ok, it's Deadpool. Being Deadpool. Yep, definitely a win here.

Wolverine in Wolverine: Origins. Finally! A Wolverine game where you can actually BE Wolverine and shred some s**t like an industrial wood chipper, and not "hit with the flat of your claws to avoid blood for a teen rating." Not to mention, Hugh Jackman did the voice, and is pretty much an alternate universe Logan imo.

Kefka, excellent villian in FFVI.

Aeris, for being the first and only game character I ever felt a tug at my heartstrings for when she died.

Truth in Halo 3. Srsly, killing a religious fanatical nut, totally made this game for me.

Alucard, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. For being one badass vampire with hundreds of weapons to kill a never-ending horde of evil monsters. And of course he got the girl. Undead 007 with swords imo.

Deathwing/Neltharion in Warcraft II, World of Warcraft. Starting as a noble dragon aspect and falling into one of the most destructive forces on the planet, excellent story and art.

Deckard Cain in Diablo I, II. Funny old guy. "Stay awhile and listen."

Sylvannas Windrunner, Warcraft III, World of Warcraft. Former elven ranger general, killed by a death knight, risen as a slave, breaks free, and then proceeds to become a mega thorn in his side for years. And, she's hot.

All in all though, I want a pure Deadpool game. Would pretty much become instant favorite game if they stayed true to the character.
