Well, same could be told about Gordon Freeman, no? Razz But he would be 10000x "greatest video game hero" than Master Chief for me. Wink

Wow that is my final also, but i voted for the Nameless One. Twisted Evil

It was a tough choice in top 16 between the Nameless and Duke Nukem, but really the Nameless One is the greatest hero ever.

cant deside between gordon freeman and guybrush threepwood


That's no quesiton.
Guybrush: "What fool would think this is real gold?"
Speaking-Parrot: "Bwark. It's me, Guybrush Threepwood. Mighty pirate!"
Guybrush: "Why do you have to ruin everything?"

I rest my case.

From wikipedia:

In the games, the Master Chief never speaks during player-controlled gameplay, making him an almost silent protagonist. Even during cutscenes, the character generally speaks sparingly. Bungie Studios' Frank O'Connor has described the Chief as "so quiet and so invisible, literally, that the player gets to pretend they're the Chief. The player gets to inhabit those shoes [and] apply their own personality."

Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing

This like proves it beyond a doubt that he isn't a character at all, it's actually the player that has to invent one and pretend they are some bozo in a suit and helmet Laughing it's harder to pretend your Freeman since he is a scientist with glasses and a beard, you know what he looks like.

Why is there no Riddick here? I think he is better than at least 50% of the characters posted there. Smile

Semi's

Ryo vs Cloud
Ryu vs JC Denton

Final
Ryo vs Ryu

Winner
Ryo

No matter what anyone says Ryo is still one of the best characters in gaming history. I pray to the gaming god's at least once a week for closure to the Shenmue series. Long live DC.

*Side note* Where the fuck is Max Payne!

Who the f is Ryo ?

Anyway, I got Garrett vs Freeman and Freeman won. And yes, he isn't a "full" character with a distinct personality, but everyone creates his own image of him after so many games and experiences we've lived through his adventures.

And Guybrush is also very cool, especially as I finished the second chapter of Tales of Monkey Island today ! Excellent games, waiting for the other 3 chapters !

Traditionally, the gamefaqs/gamespot crowd always seems to go with the old NES heroes like Mario, Link, Samus and Mega Man. The characters from FFVII are also extremely popular. My bet is on Link taking the whole thing.

Following my own heart though, I'd probably go with Ryu Hayabusa.

Highly doubt it, probably some crap like Mario, Donkey Kong or Sonic will win :/
