    Oh, and where the hell is Fawful? I HAVE CHORTLES!!!

  • secretsearcher - January 2, 2010 11:06 p.m.

    Hell to the yes with Sly Cooper. Best game character of all time I think. And, as one of those Halo "haters" you mentioned, I must admit...the armor is badass. But waht about the Elite Best Agents? Or Count Bleck from Super Paper Mario?

    I aggree with all of the choices on this list, especially Midna. I wouldn't minded having seen Rundas on it though, I always feel insanly guilty that I can kill him in 10 seconds, he's so awsome a character.

  • joshguy999 - December 31, 2009 8:17 p.m.

    Where's lineback from LOZ Phantom Hourglass? And Sora from KH? And even Sargent from Halo?

  • JC182 - December 31, 2009 8:09 p.m.

    Great artical i think that master chief is the best character of the decade

  • marioman50 - December 31, 2009 7:15 a.m.

    Nice list, but... No Travis Touchdown?!?!?!?! I'm super-pissed! I thought for sure that the beam-katana-wielding otaku would be on here.

  • DriveShaft - December 31, 2009 2:45 a.m.

    Glad to see Nathan Drake was there :D

  • BertTheTurtle - December 31, 2009 12:47 a.m.

    Awesome, Pyramid Head and the big daddies made the cut.

    I agree with the inclusion of Midna here. I hate to sound so... stereotypical but I honestly rarely get attached to female characters in video games. This all changed with Midna of course. Everything stated in the article about her is exactly the same reasons why I liked her so much and actually became attached to he to the very end of the game. When she left at the end of the game, I truly felt like I was losing someone close to me and for that, I will always remember her as a video game character. As for Alex Vance, I really do like her as a character however I played that after Twilight Princess as if I even attempted to play Half Life 2 on my then computer, my PC would have exploded into the ether, Team Rocket-style lol Anyways, I wonder if Brett Elston was the one who suggested Midna? I'm a huge fan of the Zelda series (sadly... no tattoos -_-) and I know from listening to the podcast that he is too so I gotta wonder ; )
