Favorite Characters

These are my top favorites, although there are others.

Mario


Sonic/Super Sonic



Knuckles the Echidna


Link


Gilius Thunderhead

What about the Belmontes of Castlevania fame? Simon, Trevor, etc.

Post whatever, it's not a thread just for mine. :p

My favortie videogame character is cloud from ff7(too bad i lost the game).

Gilbert, remember him?

Precisely why I posted the Belmonts

Sid Highwind (Final Fantasy 7)
Mike Turrino (GTA San Andreas)
Mobius 1 (Ace Combat 4)
Cloud (Final Fantasy 7)
Gordan Freeman (Half Life)
Duke Nukem (Duke Nukem series)

Max Payne(2) is pretty cool too, not much the game but the detective style narrating.

Tommy Vercetti is my favorite of the current generation of games. Ray Liotta just reeks of awesomeness. C.J. from San Andreas was pretty cool, but Tommy and his crew would wipe out the Grove Street families without breaking a sweat.

As for my all-time favorite, that would be Mario, of course.

c.j.
Tommy vercetti
snake
mario
mike tyson
ken and RYU
bloodrayen
rider
Kratos

Personally, I liked the GTAIII main character the best. (Some know him as Fido, others as Claude, some just call him the GTAIII Guy.) He had a mysterious vibe going on, that said "Don't fuck with me". I mean, he get's shot in the gut by Catalina during a heist, which leads to his arrest, so what does he do? He breaks out of prison, get's close to the major crime figure heads and mob/gang/syndicate leaders in town, kill's a great majority of them off, and all so he can close enough to Catalina to kill off her crew, and then kill her.

Anyway's, the new generation of games aside, I've always been a fan of Donkey Kong, and Toad from Mario.

Paulie, from MAFIA.

Nintendo (8-bit) Era
Mario

16-bit era
Link (Legend of Zelda A Link to the Past)

32/64-bit era
Solid Snake (Metal Gear Solid series)

current generation
I changed my vote, it's now Naked Snake (Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater); a.k.a. Big Boss, father of Solid, Liquid, and Solidus Snake, and the baddest videogame character of all time, IMO.

Favorite of All Time
Mario (Super Mario Bros., duh!)

long_lost_corleone, I like your synopsis (is that the right term?) on the main character from GTA:3. BTW, did you catch his cameo in San Andreas? Hell, you even do a set of missions with Catalina!

I would say Tommy Vercetti and the Scarface emulated theme of GTA Vice City is one of my favorite games.I also agree with an earlier post that said how Tommys guys would crush CJ and the grove street clovers.I also see this very relative to Street gangs now like crips, bloods and black wallstreet who make no comparison to original gangs and gangsters. The word Gangster ......is now Gangsta and that should say enough.

This is also a reason i felt San Andreas is just a hoodlum version of all the games of the grand theft auto series.

NYC Goodfella

Guybush Threepwood from the Monkey Island series.

I FORGOT ABOUT MONKEY ISLAND!!! The first is still one of my favorite PC games of all time.

Jonny Cage:


Sub Zero:

Both from Mortal Kombat II

The movement of Johnny Cage's right hand alarms me.

Have you downloaded Mortal Kombat for the MAME emulator?

MAME?

I have the first Mortal Kombat on Sega Genesis emulator.

Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator. It basicly turns your computer into an arcade machine. I have no idea how to do it but I'll ask a friend of mine for the site he used to set mine up. It's to cool for school, I have Mortal Kombat II and NBA Jams set up right now. Its like going to the arcade for free.

Is this like a regular emulator or something else?

It's basicly like having the arcade console, thats about as good as I can describe it.

Link.
Conker.
Diddy Kong.
Mario.

The Master Chief from Halo is by far the greatest of all characters. He simply kicks ass, doesn't take shit from anyone and is always angry. Oh man, he is my hero. When I have a son I will name him Master Chief.
