And the award for most overrated character of all time goes to......*drum roll*

Gordon Freeman.

.

Take your pick.

I question if I should even call him a character when he has no personality or characterisation

Take your pick.

"Overrated" in terms of what?

Master Cheif, so bland and copy off Doom Marine.

To put Snake up there just shows how much of a dumbass you are.

Oh I know that, it's just that all those characters are praised, when their personalities are as good as a hollow shell. Mind you, this is mostly from mainstream gamers, who think stuff like CoD has good stories.

Gordon Freeman

Kratos

Masterchief

Snake

Has as much character as the pokemon trainer how he won that best character of all time competition on gamespot a few years ago is beyond me.

brutal brutal brutal XD XD

Master Chief is one of the most stale and uninteresting characters I've ever seen in a video game

Snake was good on MGS1 all the other games he was just meh especially in MGS3 he was an emotionless robot.

okay.

You seem to be mistaken here, you see, this thread is for overrated characters, which Gordon, Kratos, and Chief all fit that criteria very well.

But calling Snake overrated sseems to be a mistake on your part. It's okay, mistakes are frequent, you just have to learn from this experience.

[QUOTE="Slashless"][QUOTE="Chrome-"] Well you both must have played the wrong game because the MGS3 I played had Snake as the main character.Chrome-

Old Snake was very interesting in MGS4. And a f*cking Badass to top it off.

Take your pick.

I actually kind of like when characters don't talk. I find that it actually introduces a sense of immersion into the game in a way. I can project my own characteristics, demeanor, dialogue, etc. onto the character and you can't do that with a character that talks. I'm speaking subjectively, of course. I could never imagine Gordon Freeman, Red and Link talking, and I hope it's kept that way.

EDIT: Oh god, I hope Glitchspot fixes up this **** ass forum software.

By the way to the idiot poster above, femshep and male shepard are exactly the same save for gender. Character wise they are exactly the same, dumbarse.

I disagree.
