Which game do you think has the best characters?

For me it's SW: Republic Commando. Even though it's mostly scripted, delta squad are still awesome.

Battlefield BC. I loved everyone in my squad

Mass Effect series, Red Dead Redemption and surpsisingly Deadly Premonition.

KOTOR!!

[QUOTE="Doom_HellKnight"]The majority of the cast across the Mass Effect games, with only a few that spoil the lineup. Jack, for example... sts106mat

The DLC characters were meh. The only said a few lines when you tried to interact with them.

Uncharted (series)

Persona 4 in the last few years. 110million

red dead redemption for me.

Uncharted 1 and 2

Portal (lol)

LBP (sackboy :))

The Legend of Zelda series (KABOOM! SPLOOSH!)

GTA4.

Mass Effect series, Red Dead Redemption and surpsisingly Deadly Premonition.

EvilSelf

Half life 2, Zelda, KH.... Above all, MGS. All great characters.... except Volgin, that douchebag.San_09

He is undoubtedly the worst character in MGS history.

Geralt of Rivia "The Witcher"

god of war - kratos

final fantasy seven , you care each one of them..... especially yuffie

Kain and Raziel from Legacy of Kain.

Zelda Series.

Monkey Island kills everything in terms of characters, particularly Curse because of the Barbery Coast guys, Rottingham, Blondebeard, and Griswold Goodsoup.

Also good are Persona 4, Bad Company 2 (the characters are CRIMINALLY underused in that btw), Uncharted 2, and of course Deadly Premonition.

Sadly I can name about 10 times as many games with cringe-inducingly bad and/or stiflingly boring characters.

Which is impressive for a multiplayer game

Orchid87

Uncharted and Heavy Rain. Both games have characters who seem real.

Beyond good and Evil... The only game I have played that seemed to express genuine emotion

on the comical side, Pikmin series. Olimar, Louie, the president, and the AI of the ship are all hilarious

Conker's Bad Fur Day. You can't go wrong with a singing pile of poo and a horde of genocidal teddy bears.

Mass Effect 2 for Mordin, Garrus, and Tali.

Easily the Mass Effect series

FFVII

Mass Effect, When Mordin died during my suicide mission I was so broken I went back and did the the mission again just to save him lol. I also really like Garrus and Tali Zorah. Everyone in ME is cool. I didnt care much for jacob though.... maybe cuz I didn't play a Female shep. The Justicar was awesome too!

These are my favorites, and my favorite character in each game mentioned.

Best video game characters: The Witcher (Geralt of Rivia)
Best video game characters that did not originate from any other medium: Fire Emblem: Seisen no Keifu (Alvis)
Most surprisingly good video game characters: Team Fortress 2 (Heavy)

Kain and Raziel from Legacy of Kain.

Not only do I agree with the LoK characters but I also loved Carnivàle.

It seems we have very similar taste. :)

I would also like to add the Psychonauts characters, especiallyDogen Boole.

Planescape: Torment.

It's a tough job to decide between ME2 and KoTOR, both had a awesome cast of characters plus the main character.
.
The cool thing about ME2 is that even if some characters are somewhat a stereotype, there are things that make them unique. Tane for exemple, the assassin that is somehow peaceful is not something new, but the fact that he's a drell and they remember every second of their life makes it different from any other assassin out there. Every character in ME2 has something good about them, some more, some less.
.
In KoTOR however, I feel that some characters are outstading, and others I really don't care for, not that they are bad, but the others are much better. Jolee, HK-47 and Bastilla are easily one of the best characters I've seen in a videogame.
.
Even though I don't know witch come in first, in third it would be HL2 and it's Episodes.

Certainly not the best story, but the Metal Gear Solid series has very memorable and fleshed out characters.

I think Metal Gear Solid 1, all the heroes were likeable like Gray Fox, and even the villians, i mean Sniper Wolf was so cool and her background story was a very powerful moment, at least for me, so yeah, i'm going to say MGS1.

Marvel vs capcom 2 and 3 havent played 1 but i guess it probably has some good charachter s

Legend of Zelda, KOTOR, Mass Effect characters have been covered...

I'll add Skies of Arcadia's cast to the list. Vyse and Aika were fun, but the secondary characters (Gilder, Drachma, Belleza, Ramirez etc) were awesome.

Pac-man...
