This blog now updated on sunday.

This week's character is:

Gordon Freeman

The wrong man in the wrong place. One of the most unlikely hero you could imagine, unless a geeky theoretical physicist turning Rambo sounds normal to you. After a failed (sabotaged?) experiment, Gordon has to fight for his life out of a high tech scientific lab and eventually becomes another pawn in an intergalactic race for power involving powers beyond his imagination. A man with a sharp instinct and a surprising gift for leadership, which lets him become the symbol of hope for the citizen of the dystopian world of Half-Life.

Game: Half-Life (series)

Trivia: Gordon freeman is the definition of the silent protagonist in games: he never speaks a single word, not even a grunt of pain when hurt or sigh of relief when healing. Developers say it's meant to make immersion easier.
