Best/Favorite Video Game Character?

Jstalilwyrd · 2nd April 2001, 21:56

It's been a while since I started a thread. So who is your best/favorite video game character of all time?

I'm for Sonic the Hedgehog.

And if put in a Super Smash Brothers kind of scenario, he would probably kick some ass...

Somebody · 2nd April 2001, 22:31

William "BJ" Blazkowicz

The Wolfenstein Guy

Mister Bill · 2nd April 2001, 22:32

At the moment I have to say the Cheschire Cat from Alice.

NeoRenegade · 2nd April 2001, 23:15

Sonic is gay, and made by a company that can't stop going bankrupt.

Conker the squirrel rules

nateJC · 3rd April 2001, 03:53

What about Gordon Freeman?

You know, the scientist/main character from Half-Life

Namelessv1 · 3rd April 2001, 06:39

Im gonna have 2 go with the phat Italian plumber, nobody holds it down like Mario.

Bizznatch · 3rd April 2001, 06:45

Cloud, Tifa, and Aeris from Final Fantasy 7
2nd place goes to Marle from Chrono Trigger

Sam603 · 3rd April 2001, 06:55

It's got to be Max from MDK2 - Very ambisions, got his own planet to rule!

Twilightseer · 3rd April 2001, 08:41

Crash Bandicoot (because he's nuts)
Alucard (from the Castlevania series)
Aeris Gainsborough and Vincent Valentine in Final Fantasy VII

Xerxes · 3rd April 2001, 09:32

I always thought "Vega" from the Street Fighter II series
was very awesome. Also "Rolento" from Street Fighter Alpha,
and "Ivy" from Soul Calibur

c2R · 3rd April 2001, 09:35

I think it just has to be Rayman.

Classic platformer game there- did anyone actually complete it though?

Twilightseer · 3rd April 2001, 09:36

Xerxes

Yes, Vega rocks

C2R

I finished the first one released in 1995 on Playstation.
Never played the second one.
Why do you ask ?

InvisableMan · 3rd April 2001, 11:20

two words. Major Stryker

ElChevelle · 3rd April 2001, 11:23

What's up with this new Kirby/Gameboy game?
You control the action by tilting your Gameboy?

InvisableMan · 3rd April 2001, 11:30

i saw that. apparently theres a tilt detector in the cartrage (like in a pinball machine, when you shake it saz "tilt") and instad of using the analog directional pad you tilt the gameboy once you have specified a nutral point (i guess the tilt detector is ominidirectional) im sure you still use (a) and (b) to fly and such, ill snoop some info for it and see what makes it tick...

Twilightseer · 3rd April 2001, 11:32

InvisableMan

Could you please post your sig only once per thread ? Or shrink your sig's size. This is getting tedious.

InvisableMan · 3rd April 2001, 11:36

my bad.. ive been thinking of putting hydraulics on the tank (thatill be fun to do) and shrinking its size. ill just take out the tank and one of the cars for now

thanks for lettin me know

Twilightseer · 3rd April 2001, 11:37

Thank you

Charmander · 3rd April 2001, 11:41

Crash bandicoot 2, i still cant find the yellow gem and im 85% complete

InvisableMan · 3rd April 2001, 11:41

no problem

Twilightseer · 3rd April 2001, 11:44

Charmander

Don't you think that your sig is a bit long, too ?

I never could quite complete it. But then again I was always better at strategy games like Civilization

Bilbo Baggins · 3rd April 2001, 20:25

Mine are:

Gordon Freeman (From Half-Life)
Bob (from Messiah)

RhinoTrip · 3rd April 2001, 20:36

Final Fantasy 7 is shite - FF2 is the best RPG ever made. Cid would be my favorite character I think, although I like Tellah as well.

Mario definitely a close second though. Yeah, I'm a Nintendo kind of guy.

Aww... thread ru-in-ed... pfft.

SNYder · 3rd April 2001, 22:17

hands down.... the Lemmings are the best characters of all time! I love those little creatures.

3rd April 2001, 22:28

I'd say backstabbing my friends as James Bond in Goldeneye for the N64... still the best multiplayer game... ever.

Or, maybe playing as Officer Dick in THPS (1 or 2, dont matter, but in 2 i usually play as my maxed out custom character, named after a sexy kid on the forums whos handle is WolfieD.)

yeeehaw.

Bluu · 3rd April 2001, 22:51

Solid Snake... mostly thanks to David Hayden.
Mario just cause SMB3 is the best game ever.
Gordon Freeman since his shitty animations gave birth to all the TFC models and, for a time, CS.

Wolfie, I'll say nothing beats a 8v8 clan match in TF or an older TFC.
4 peeps who can see where each other is? Woohoo, big surprise. You playin someone who doesn't even know the controls (ala stereotypical sibling/parent?) maybe?

Oh yeh and game pads are just plain bad. But please argue back cause I've never heard anything topping a PC fps.

weedsatan · 3rd April 2001, 22:54

That white LINE from PONG, the right one not the left one....

and TF and TFC is what now?

Besides, i meant console games. and I play without the radar. And I play seasoned pros, not mom, or siblings. (i have none.) I like controllers, i want a computer MFG company or maybe Nintendo to make an N64 pad for a USB port.

I hate my current game pad, and dislike using a keyboard.

Somebody · 4th April 2001, 00:55

I assume that:
TF - Team Fortress (for the original Quake)
TFC - Team Fortress Calssic (for Half-Life)

Bluu · 4th April 2001, 02:02

Yes Somebody...
Well I guess I'll just never understand anyone who could pick a gamepad over a mouse and keyboard. Just like they'll never understand me.

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 4th April 2001, 02:04

My favorite character is Link from the Legend Of Zelda series...

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 4th April 2001, 02:05

Oh yes... and running a close second is Sarge from QuakeIII: Arena.

PhrostByte · 4th April 2001, 02:18

Any of the Lost Vikings were cool. Wang.. from Tekken 2

and.. and.. Glover rules.

ElChevelle · 4th April 2001, 03:30

Prometheus from Metal Warriors(SNES)

pajama-boy · 4th April 2001, 05:36

Ryu Hayabusa from ninja gaiden I,II and III for the NES
Samus from all those metroid games for the NES SNES and the GB.
Revolver Ocelot from Metal Gear Solid (o0o0o0o that game kicks your mom's giant ass).
