For some reason, Barney Calhoun from HL1 strikes me as my most memorable character. Star fox had memorable characters as well.

BioShock is one of the best games ever made. Anyone who was expecting heavy RPG elements was an idiot. They said 1,000 times before release that it was primarily a shooter.

so? ever played system shock? it was created by some of the same devs, its spiritual sucessor, except the RPG elements were toned down, so no anyone expecting heavy RPG elements wasnt an idiot, it was just expecting the devs to their job right, system shock 2 is a game that it is still memorable even 10 years after it was made, in 5 years nobody will remember bioshock

The Postman from Twilight Princess. I can never forget him.

In my dreams, he's there.

When I wake up, he's there.

When I close my eyes, he's there.

Oh god. Oh god. I can never forget him.

What was memorable about Kingdom of hearts? other than the disney characters...

The rest is the typical anime kids along with a bunch of black coated Sephiroth wannabes.

NAPK1NS

They messed up the RPG elements and the shooting wasn't fun.

How is it one of the best games every made?

It had great graphics, story, and atmosphere but that doesn't make up for the gameplay.

Yeah,I felt like Bioshock was more of an interactive detective novel for me,rather than a shooter. When I thought of it like that,I loved every minute of it.

If you were expecting heavy RPG elements, then you simply were not listening to what the developers were saying.

They said from day one that Bioshock would be a first person shooter. I believed them, and, as such, I was not dissapointed when there were little to no RPG elements.

You expecting RPG elements and not getting them is not the developer's fault, but yours.

No offense but Altair is probably one of the worst voice-acted characters ever in a game,atleast for this gen. What was remotely interesting about him?

Gman from Half-Life series.

Jolee Bindo from KOTOR was... unique.

Serious Sam is full of delicious badassery.

I don't care what anybody says, I thought Sheogorath from Shivering Isles was hilarious.

Uh, Mario anyone?

And just about any character from Killer 7 and No More Heroes. It's hard to forget about a man with 7 (or 9, I lost count) different personalities or a model/assassin with a rocket launcher for a leg.

Skull Kid from LoZ Majora's Mask (and to a lesser extent -OoT)

Sergeant Moody and Captain Price from CoD's (Infinity Ward) and just about every Russian who shouted 'for the Motherland!'

Sander Cohen from Bioshock

Sergeant Johnson from the Halo series

Just about every Turian in Mass Effect

The Pyro from Team Fortress 2

Mario....obviously

Gordon Freeman and G-man from Half-Life series

Psycho and Prophet from Crysis

Parker and Sawyer from World in Conflict

Big Smoke from GTA San Andreas

Dingo, Jehuty and Anubis from Zone of the Enders 2

Well, here's a long list- Snake, Liquid, Ocelot, Gray Fox, Big Boss, Roy Campbell, Otacon, Emma Emmerich, Solidus Snake, Volgin, The Fear, the Fury, Meryl from the Metal Gear (solid) series.

The Great Mighty Poo from Conker

Fox and Wolf from StarFox

Squall from FFVIII

Auron (win), Yuna and Wakka from FFX

GLaDOS and the cake from Portal

Micheal Dugan (Ray Wise) from Red Alert 2

There are a lot of other LoZ characters, but I consider Majora's Mask to be the most memorable game for me personally, and I took the most important character from it.

Those are all the characters I can remember currently, although obviously, if I haven't remembered them, then they aren't memorable characters.

FF7 had great characters, and the Crisis Core ending, wow, now that ending sure as hell belongs in one of the best endings in gaming history imo.
