    Surprised Lily from FNV didn't make it. Tabitha is equally hilarious, sure, but Lily is much more important to the story (she can become a companion!). And the whole sweet little granny shtick ("What was that, deary," etc.) coming from this monster with that gravely voice was quite refreshing.

    I actually think that CJ from San Andreas cleaned himself up by the end of the game. Sure, he got dragged back into the gang stuff, but he was also being harassed by Officer Tenpenny. He also had to work with weird characters to get back at the people he once treated as brothers. It seems strangely like a parallel to Red Dead Redemption in that respect, except for the part where CJ got a happy ending. I really miss all the wacky stuff Rockstar used to do in GTA. I hope they bring back the same craziness for GTA5.

    John Marston is a total rip off Clint Eastwoods character William Munny in Unforgiven. Marston is cool but not original This is a good list but where is Commander Shepard and Mario and Ezio and Kirby? No Donkey Kong?

    and Jack from ME2 should have made the list. She is number 1

    Haha shelby! the line about him also capturing your hearts was pretty good. Also, if Oswald was in here, maybe you could also include Scott Pilgrim's first videogame introduction? Anyways John Marston is the best.

    I happily agree with the choice of Sazh, out of all the characters in the game, his story seemed to have to greatest part, and his character seemed to have the strongest reason to fight, he truly was the stand-out character for the game.

    Thanks to Eleanore and my good choices, I nearly started bawling terribly. But what about Sir Walter Beck and/or Ben Fin from Fable 3? They were awesome!

    Legion is fascinating in Mass Effect 2 and I'm looking forward to seeing him in ME3. Alan Wake was an excellent new character in 2010 by the way.
