I love this article forever.
I crush on Link like you wouldn't believe. I prefer his green tunic, but reds pretty good too.
Love the sorceress story, how adorable. and Princess Mariko was cute too.
I've been trying to listen to all the podcasts recently(joined in at #43), and I just listened to the one where Chris explains his early gay childhood. That coupled with your section of this feature had me laughing for 5 minutes straight.
Gabriel Knight, Monkey Island and A Mind Forever Voyaging in one feature? This is why I love GR.
Sadly my first fictional character crush was from an Anime. However it was originally a video game so that should count. Saber from Fate/Stay Night. *siighhhhhhhhhh*
p.p.s. I just realized my latest string of comments have made me look like I have a gay crush on Chris (which, when he were a 2nd grader, might be applicable.) It's not true. I am neither gay nor a stalker. I'm real and have a life and a Facebook and stuff. And am a man.
Id go with Jessica Alba when she was in Sin City. Oh wait that wasnt a game was it she is a real woman. Lol. Sorry dont mean to poke fun but I have always loved games but never looked at a female character as anything but a character.
My first crush was some character from the Harvest Moon game. I would always give her gifts so i could marry her in the game. Lol. Pathetic, I know, but I was really sad when I found out you could only marry one specific person in that game.
I remember I was 13 and I was playing Tomb Raider The Angel of Darkness (a disaster of a game) and I glanced at Lara Croft and thought she looked hot, but then I saw the real life Lara Croft models, that made the connection, I mean hey, without Lara Croft, the game character, there wouldn't be Alison Carroll, 'nuff said.
