FAVORITE CHARACTER/RESPECT!

[patrickmeansly]

If you could choose your most favorite retro video game character, who would it be???  Anything from Atari to the Dreamcast.  Also, if you had to choose a character that is not necessarily your favorite, but you have the utmost respect for, who would that be??

Haha Respect would be Solid Snake... what a badass
Favorite retro character, I do love me some Terry Bogard from SNK's fighting games, Hilariously awesome
Samus Aran, I love too

I'm gonna have to pick a few:

Evil Otto (I find it amazing an Atari character can scare the hell out of me):


Alis Landale - I would honestly have to call Alis the biggest Badass in gaming. 15 year-old taking down a king.

Jonathan Ingram - The opening of Policenauts in old LA with Jonathan in his office is the epitome of cool. This is who I would want to be.

Arsha + Pepe - Cutest game characters ever. Freaking adorable.

Evil Otto is awesome!

I think it's a bit hard to pick a single character... so...

Naked Snake/ Big Boss (MGS) - Certified Bad Ass
Ezio (Assassin's Creed II +) - I loved how you saw his entire life play out through his series of games. He starts out as a headstrong rich boy, and turns into a Master Assassin.
Soma Cruz (Castlevania: Aria and Dawn of Sorrow) - Dude is Dracula Reincarnate. One slip up, and he becomes the Dark Lord.
Zero (Mega Man X +) - I liked Zero through the MMX games, but I didn't really start to love the character until the Zero series. Too bad we'll never know if he survived the end of MMZ4.

Kratos - one bad motha. No way around it. Have to give him respect.

Scorpion - single handedly challenges every Lin Kuei to avenge his family.

Samus Aran - First female video game hero.

Oliver - He is the one who will save ... the world!
