Your Top 5 favorite video game characters

[SuperWingedYoshi]

There's already a topic about the favorite playable SMBX character and about the Top 10 worst video game enemies/characters, so I thought I'd throw in the question which five video game characters (good guys or bad guys) are the ones you like the most, and maybe you can also give a reason for your choice.

Note that everyone has their own preferences for video game characters, so please don't bash someone for liking a character that you don't like. It's their opinion.

I'm gonna start.

1. Yoshi! He's my lucky charm, he's green, he's nice, he's loyal, he's adorable, he's always willing to help, he's awesome. Period.
2. Tails. Tails is something like Sega's version of Yoshi.
3. Bowser Jr. My favorite baddie. I simply like him... maybe because he's so... rebellious?
4. Luigi. He's green, a bit shy, and a bit cooler than Mario.
5. Kirby. An amazing and cute character. I say that even though I've only played one Kirby game in my entire life so far.

What about you?

[Mable]

1. Moxxi from BL2. Shes the most amazing Character in the game.
2. CarlRadames from RE. Although shes the second main Boss in the game itself which only comes in Ada's Campaign shes kinda cool and cruel itself.
3. Angel from BL2. The thing that she helps you in the game but later has to betray you because of Jack and then she eventually helps you again makes her one of my favorite char.
4. Brick from BL2. Dude it's Brick one of the most amazing characters in the game. Yo Slab.
Last but not least.
5. Doviculus from Brütal Legend. Dude its Brütal Legend altought everyone there is cool hes the most baddest dude in it and he has the best Guitar sounds from all of them and he kinda has a very powerfull army.

OMG NOT MARIO CHARS WHAT YA GANNA DA.

Oh yeah you kinda notice that Moxxi, Angel and Brick are the good ones while Carla and Doviculus are the bad ones. Note that those 3 are my only favorite good ones due i always love the bad ones but eye Moxxi is amazing Brick is awesome and Angel is just so nice it is a shame what happens later in the game with her. She isn't a evil one altought the one time she betrays you she kinda had to do it..

1. Kirby: The cutest guy in the world
2. Bowser Jr.: He's a nice baddie, my favorite.
3. Espio: The guy has just theses awesome ninja tricks! That's just OP!
4. Vector: The way he talks and acts in Sonic X is kinda cool. I like that
5. Yoshi: A cute little fellow of Mario. I don't know, but I really like him..

Tough choices but
1. Luigi - Mario's cooler brother, taller, faster, more agile, just the overall nice guy. LUIGI FTW
2. Meta Knight - Inspired by Zorro, obviously a cool dude.
3. Link - C'mon it's Link!
4. Kirby - Pink ball of cuteness! er..I mean PAIN!
5. Alucard - I was just plaing Castlevania SOTN, still a bad ass game.

[MrPunchia]

1. King K. Rool - DKC series
2. Shy Guy - Mario series since SMB2
3. Waluigi - Mario series
4. Shadow the Hedgehog - Sonic series since SA2
5. Kirby - Kirby series

[BTB]

5. OG Loc from GTA San Andreas
4. Wario
3. Ezio Alberto Adriano Febritzio Rodrigo Mario Luigi Biago Enrica Auditore da Firenze from Ass Creed 2-Revelations
2. The Soldier from Team Fortress 2
1. Uh... John Marston from Red Dead Redemption I guess

[ragont]

1. TEMPLAR ASSASSIN, LANAYA (DotA 2) - i just love my lanaya-chan.
2. Delta 62, "Scorch" (Star Wars: Republic Commando) - without him, this game would probably be the darkest fucking game i've ever played
3. Johnny Gat (Saints Row series) - he's your oldest buddy, and actually one cool motherfucker
4. Pyro (Team Fortress 2) - what's not to love about fucking pyro
5. Kirby - FUCK YEAH KIRBY

[zlaker]

It's funny that Kirby is in almost everyone's top 5 favorite character.

[SuperWingedYoshi]

It's funny that Kirby is in almost everyone's top 5 favorite character.

Because Kirby is simply awesome.
Completely forgot him in my list, by the way. I'll update it right away.

[Namyrr]

1.) Salvador, from Borderlands 2. I loved playing as him.
2.) Fawkes, from Fallout 3. I don't know why, besides the fact that he was a kick-ass follower and saved my ass numerous times.
3.) Booker & Elizabeth, from BioShock Infinite. The character development in that game was simply amazing imo.
4.) The Dark Brotherhood from Skyrim has to go into my favorites as well. Shame as they're all dead.
5.) Roland, from Borderlands 1 & 2. That character was the coolest to play as, and was great in BL2.

[Darkonius Mavakar]

1)Spyro: childhood <3
2)DK
3)Banjo
4)crash
5)Luigi

[Raster]

1) Samus Aran. She's just awesome. I really started to like her at the ending of Super Metroid (when she saves those animals that reappear in Metroid Prime). For a bounty hunter she surely seeks the good of the universe.
2) Medli from Wind Waker. I liked throwing her into a wall over and over again. Not only that, but controlling her throughout the game felt awesome. She's silly and pretty fun. I like her personality and she's a well-done character generally.
3) Kayleena from Prince of Persia. I actually cared for her in the third game and her death was very saddening.
4) Cate Archer from No One Lives Forever. She's the perfect heroine. I really liked the series generally, mostly because Cate kicks ass. Love her style.
5) Kerrigan from StarCraft. Her character was greatly developed in Heart of the Swarm. It's one of the only good female characters created by Blizzard.

[Julia Pseudo]

1. Kirby? Maybe? He's hella badass, anyways.
2. Rosalina - badass space princess.
3. I don't even know

[Star]

1. Palutena Goddess of Light.
Shes a jerk who makes good puns. Plus she makes fun of Pit and trolls him.
Heres one conversation she trolls him in.

Palutena: I can't find it. Not even my all seeing eye of Palutena.
Pit: Wait. If you have a all seeing eye. Why can't you see Pandoras location?
Palutena: Because of my slightly botched laser eye surgery.
Pit: Are you messing with me again?
Palutena: Maybe

2. Hades The lord of the underworld. (Kid Icarus Uprising version)
SO AWESOME. SO FUNNY. YEAAH!
Don't like him? Well here are his best moments.
''Don't curse the darkness. Light a candle! When freaky aliens give you lemons. Make Freaky Alien Lemonade!'' -Hades
''Sounds like the chariot master has played Donkey Kong.'' -Hades
''PIT.''
''PIT!''
''PIIITTT'' -Hades
Yeah..I might be going insane too...

3. Kirby

There he is.
He's the puffball we called Kirby and Dreamland's the place he defends.
Ain't he cute?
He's so cute!

But he gets a little burpy.
Because he devours all his friends.
Hes got a eating problem.

I'm not gonna say the rest of the lyrics. It's kinda gruesome.

4. Link.

He's a badass. He's hot without his shirt.
He can handle anything. Even Navi.

5. Viridi Goddess of Nature.

She looks like a young 12 year old kid.
HAS A FREAKING TO KILL LIST.
Sends help better than Palutena.
Loves to taunt Pit.

''Your gon-na fall! Your Gon-na fall!''

Come on man,you just have to admit it,smw would be noting without this green dinosaur,and over the years I grew to him more,thats why hes one of my favorite dinosaurs and one of my favorite characters in the Mario series...no...not series...DA WHOLE MARIO UNIVERSE!!!!!
Hes just really awesome,nuff said.
Now this guy,I love his personality.But his height confuses me,like just listen to this,Lemmy koopa is older then his brother Iggy koopa which is the tallest of the koopalings and yet Lemmy koopa is shorter then the youngest of the koopalings which is Bowser Jr!Now try and wrap your head around that!
I always hated how he was always in Mario's shadow,and you know what I really didn't like?How in SMW when you beat a castle with Luigi and yet in the cutscene it still says that MARIO has saved the yoshi egg,it just is not fair for good ol Luigi,thats why I was happy about the year of Luigi and having him as a playable character in which you don't have to be playing multiplayer with a friend in SM3DWORLD,and its nice to have a game like NSLU to star him in it.
I actually can't think of any other favorite characters of mine,or at least not at the moment,sssssooooo there you go!My 5-1=4favorite video game characters!

[glitch4]

1.Luigi - coolest plumber ever.
2.Dr. Eggman - he's faster than sonic(no i'm not kidding,look for SA2) and he doesn't says ,,you're 2 slow''
3.Yoshi - 2 happy 4 you,don't ye?
4.DK - he rather go back to destroy more emenies.Maybe.
5.Link - no problem.

No kirby in here.

[icemario12]

1. Luigi: Cool guy, cool jumping skills. Who needs traction anyway?
2. Yoshi: He's so freakin' cute! Cutest dinosaur in gaming history!
3. Link: Super gadget-ized swordsman. After all the trouble he and his ancestors went through, they didn't even get ONE kiss from Zelda. Poor dude.
4. Wario: Alright, he's a douche. But in Brawl, I really like playing as him. And everyone's like: "Fail? Fail.".
5. Goomba: I know, he's not an important character, but there's something about this bad mushroom that I like...

[crusher169]

2. tepig (#BEST POKEMON EVER)
3. Kirby (obviously if I like Yoshi tyhen I like Kirby)
4. bowser (whats not to like)
5. koopa trooper (this text isn't needed)

[Magna]

1. Wario: I just love him, he is funny and an asshole. What's not to like?
2. Wart: Very underrated and has always been my favorite final boss character in a Mario game.
3. Bowser: Badass, has a cool car, and has a princess fetish.
4. Link: He is my favorite hero character in any game. He is just awesome.
5. Samus: She is my favorite in Brawl and is the main character in my favorite franchise.
