Your pics: If silent video game characters could talk

UPDATED: You told us what they'd say - see the results

Words: on February 22, 2010

Some game characters never speak. Whether it's a hardware limitation or a deliberate attempt to get you to connect more with your on-screen alter-ego, someone's hit the mute button on their entire lives. But what if they could talk? What would they say?

UPDATE: After getting the ball rolling with our own efforts (see page 2), we opened it up to you guys on Facebook and the GamesRadar forum. Some of you shopped together your own, while we've made the others up ourselves from your comments. Give yourselves a pat on the back - some of these are great!

Well done everyone. Hit page 2 to see our original ideas if you missed them first time round. If you missed out this time and feel like having a go, you can still show your creative side in the forum.

    Also, I feel sorry for the people who were considered a brother by xboxrulez. Nobody should have to sink that low, regardless of console of choice.

    You kinda suck. And yes, I like the fact that GR is adding user created content to the main site. It makes us feel speshul.

    Soz xboxrulez, I simply refuse to believe you're serious, unless you have severe dyslexia. I mean you type so Bad (no offense intended) on PURPOSE. It just irritates me IMMENSELY.

    No, I have a PS3, Im not a "Fanboy" or whatever you guys call it, I have other hobbies, a life :P but I do love me some "experiment" games. (Heavy Rain....my GAWD) But I digress......

    YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY the zombies fainlly get their 2 cents worth @Xboxrulez- as much as i love the 360, i think you really need to learn to A) type, and B) not hate discriminately. as much as i prefer the 360, the PS3 does still have some good exclusives

    I love GRUK articles, they always either have really bad or average Photoshops, which adds to the humour.

    Also, Xboxrulez is a saint, leave him alone.

    I'm not sure about this article... Besides, Kirby both SUX and BLOWS.
