183: What Would Yoshi Do?

[rizo536]

My personal pick as a videogame role model:

The boy with no name from Shadow of the Colossus.

Determined. Undeterred by tremendous obstacles.
Faithful/Hopeful. Continuing steadfastly to strive for something that seems nigh impossible and an outcome that is ultimately uncertain.
Loyal. Steadfast and loyal in his love for the woman he lost.
Strong. No explanation required.
Kind. Kind and gentle in the way he treats his faithful companion, his horse.
Self-reliant. Alone in an unknown land with only the companionship of his horse, yet with relentless motivation to accomplish the task at hand.

I absolutely loved Shadow of the Colossus. I put it down as one I'll remember forever onward.

Back to the article, seems a lot like role models in real life: Hit and Miss.

Er, you forgot Snake!

I wouldn't say Lara Croft is a good example:

Impossible barbie frame=dysmorphic body image?
Raids tombs, clear violation of archaeological procedure.
Solves most problems with bullets.

To answer the question of "What would Yoshi do?" i give you the obvious answer: exactly what he always does, ovulate.

Not exactly a great way to deal with life's problems...
