DAY 2 - FAVOURITE CHARACTER

http://gamer.blorge.com/wp-content/u...arsolid4-2.jpg

SNAAAKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

It could only be this bloke. I wanted to go for Naked Snake - Big Boss - who is technically my favourite incarnation but picking his son allowed me to squeeze in more classic varations as his story spreads across multiple games. Here is a man who is invading heavily fortified military installations - pitted against ruthless terrorists with severe personality disorders - and he is having a whale of a time. It's not lost on me that Snake is an utter prick. His a complete bastard to most people he meets in the game and comes across as a crass, charmless James Bond but that's all part of the appeal. Wolves bone him, Christopher Eccleston could play his evil brother in a movie, he can pilot a mini nuke like an RC car and he smuggles cigarettes inside his STOMACH.
AWESOME!

Day 1: First ever game - Crash Bandicoot
Day 2: Favourite Character - GLaDOS



She is so ****ing amazing omg I can't. Every time she insulted me in the game I was in stitches. I don't think there's ever been such a well written and endearing villain in a video game. :love:

Day 1 : First Game - Super Mario 64
Day 2: Favourite Character - Revolver Ocelot

He's just too ****ing cool.. ''MY HAND!!'' and ''i love to reload during a battle...there's nothing like the feeling of slamming a long silver bullet into a well greased chamber!"

Day 1 First Game: Contra
Day 2 Favourite character: Manny Calavera from Grim Fandango

http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/0...vera_large.jpg

Grim Fandango is probably one of the greatest games ever and Manny is probably the coolest main character of any game ever. Basically a 1950 film noir detective in video game form.

I'm gonna have to have a good think about this one.

Day 1 - Your first game: Tomb Raider
Day 2 - Your favourite character: Auron

http://gameaxis.com/wp-content/uploa...0/09/auron.jpg

I've never actually finished FFX, despite having played the first (what I'm guessing is) two thirds of it at least 4 or 5 times. It's either been a boss fight I got stuck at, or a problem with the disc/PS2 that has prevented me from completing what I still consider one of my favourite games of all time. Now I'm just waiting for the HD re-release.

But yeah, Auron; complete badass. You were playing the game wrong if you didn't have him in your party whenever you had the opportunity to.

Ramsay 30-01-2012 05:35 PM

Auron was indeed hardcore..I've been stuck on that part of the game where they are on a plane and have to kill some monster for the last 7 years

Yeah, that's where I last got stuck :laugh:

Stu 30-01-2012 05:38 PM

Evrae! That's exactly the part I quit on. Mind you I was **** when I last tried it years ago and mucked up the sphere grid.

Tom4784 30-01-2012 05:39 PM

I made Evrae my bitch, I just grinded through Lulu's Sphere Grid and kicked the crap out of it with her -aga spells.

Samuel. 30-01-2012 05:46 PM

I'm having second thoughts... Teddie from Persona 4 was pretty damn great.

Stu 30-01-2012 05:48 PM

I balked at having not gone with Vivi. I'll have to invent a category I can slot him in later. Nobody beats Snake.

Tom4784 30-01-2012 06:09 PM

Day 1: Street Fighter 2 Turbo
Day 2: Godot

http://images.wikia.com/aceattorney/...4/48/Godot.png

The Ace Attorney series is full of great characters and Godot can easily be considered to be one of the best. He was a enigmatic character that was funny and likable as well as being expertly written. None of the games past or present has ever, in my opinion, matched Trials and Tribulations and Godot is one of the main reasons for that, he's just too damn likable. You gotta love a man who responds to opposing objections by throwing hot cups of coffee at people.

Also there's no way you can listen to his theme and not feel classy as hell.

AH, I loved him. His whole story and character was heartbreaking.

Shaun 30-01-2012 07:31 PM

1) First Game: Super Mario All-Stars
2) Favourite Character: Although a strong piece of me is dying to say "Kabal" from the Mortal Kombat series but he's not exactly interesting. So I'll say...

http://images.wikia.com/fallout/imag...ster_Handy.png

Mister Handy. The Fallout 3 version though :bored: why the hell they decided to replace the British accent with a robotic voice is beyond me. I mean if you piss him off he'll run at you with a flamethrower screaming "FOR QUEEN AND COUNTRY!" how much more badass can you get?

Maia 30-01-2012 07:52 PM

Day 1: First Game - Spyro The Dragon
Day 2: Favourite Character: Clank

http://en.ratchet-galaxy.com/images/...ages/Clank.png

Because he's a robot and he's, like, proper cool

Shaun 30-01-2012 07:52 PM

my robot dicks all over yours, mollie

Tom4784 30-01-2012 08:07 PM

My character is armed with coffee, he'd short circuit both their asses.

Shaun 30-01-2012 08:15 PM

yeah well he's wearing a heater on his face, so he's got his own problems to worry about

Stu 30-01-2012 08:54 PM

My character can treat women badly, use cardboard boxes as a form of transportation and cool off his food in snowfields.

I win.

Scarlett. 30-01-2012 08:55 PM

Day 1: Your first game - Shining in the Darkness
Day 2: Favourite character - Nathan Drake


http://i39.tinypic.com/2pr7oki.jpg

In most modern games you seem to always play as the moody dickhead, who seems 100% focused on the mission. So Nate is a breath of fresh air, the only thing he gets by on is charm, wit, and pure luck. Nate is most like Indiana Jones, except in game form...plus he draws **** like this in his book
