EGM's Top Ten Game Characters
 

Well as its on-going countdown to EGM 200th issue.. I think.. they have been doing top 10s every month for a while. This month its game characters...

I take issue with some of these choices but eh.

(- . -) Kirby is sad.

Re: EGM's Top Ten Game Characters
 

So this is basically the Gamefaqs character battle results without the battle and, instead, people's biases showing like crazy.

Re: EGM's Top Ten Game Characters
 

I would have to agree, PacMan should be before Samus.

Re: EGM's Top Ten Game Characters
 

Yeah Samus was actually one of the choices I had issues with and Pac-Man should of been much higher on the list.

Re: EGM's Top Ten Game Characters
 

if they ever found out the guys name from Grand Theft Auto, he should've been on there.

and Solid Snake #3?

you have to be kidding me.

and Kratos, up and comer?

sure GoW was really good, but not a "Top Ten Game Characters" kind of character.

Re: EGM's Top Ten Game Characters
 

Cloud?

Come on.

And that they picked SM64 and OoT is just horsecrap.

SMB3, aLttP 4ever.

I'm going to stop writing like a 10 year old girl now.

Re: EGM's Top Ten Game Characters
 

SMB3 > SM64.
OoT > aLttP.

Re: EGM's Top Ten Game Characters
 

10. Lara Croft <--- poster child for female video game advocation.

9. Pikachu

8. Master Chief <--- generic character with a generic personality.

7. Cloud Strife <--- overrated. Further lame factors include spiky blonde hair, dark clothing, and an oversized blade.

6. Pac-Man

5. Sonic

4. Samus <--- another feminist's poster child. Has not made a great enough impact to be on list.

3. Solid Snake <--- "the man who makes the impossible possible". Too contrived.

2. Link

1. Mario

Re: EGM's Top Ten Game Characters
 

that whole list should be deleted and re-arranged.

I mean, actually think it out.

Re: EGM's Top Ten Game Characters
 

I prefer OOT to ALTTP, but SMB3 just might be better than SM64...close call there though.

Re: EGM's Top Ten Game Characters
 

Well if folks take issues with the list, why not create your own top 10 or top 5.

And pick said characters best game.

Re: EGM's Top Ten Game Characters
 

for game characters, i'd have to say...

5.MegaMan
4.Donkey Kong
3.PacMan
2.Link
1.Mario

Re: EGM's Top Ten Game Characters
 

I don't think Master Chief should have been on there, generic like GM said.

I agree with Solid Snake being on there, maybe not so high though.

And for up-and-comers I think Dante should be on there...but I am in love with him so that may make me biased.

Re: EGM's Top Ten Game Characters
 

oh hell yeah, Dante definitely should be on there, if only GTA had 1 main character, then that guy should be on there.
