I'm a personal fan of...woah, I just went through all my games and realised most of the rest are unlikable.
'Chelle from Portal is pretty ace, as is Kyle Katarn for all his "look at me, I'm an old Jedi" balls.
I'm thorn between Link and Jade from Beyond Good & Evil.
Link is just awesome but his character is rather flat, since he never talks.
Jade on the other hand had a lot of personality and was one of those characters you just have to love.
She was more than your typical girl with balls protagonist.

Max Payne.
The graphic novel/comic scenes + the EPIC voice acting makes him one of the most interesting characters to play that I've come across.

Well, Conker's kinda funky, I guess, but my favourite protagonist in a game has to be FFX's Auron (including his Kingdom Hearts 2 appearance). He has a giant, decent looking sword *glares at Cloud and his Buster Sword*, an awesome coat, brings some sort of uber-alcohol to battle and can spit said alcohol on his sword to shoot evil orbs from it. WIN.
Also, let's give a mention to the fantastic character of Raiden. Come on, I'm sure everyone agrees with me when I cross my fingers and say he was a brilliant, completely well fleshed out, witty character with a complete understanding of his situation and certainly no whiny voice at all.

Kane! No wait, he's an antagonist...
Cloud Strife? Okay, I'm just joking on that one...
You know what? I don't actually think I have a favourite protagonist.
Kreia (KotOR II) is the closest character I can come up with.
EDIT: I look a few posts above and he's sat there like the most obvious thing in the world!
Kyle Katarn.

Kyle Katarn.
I counted that as a plus because most of the people she was a ***** to deserved it in my opinion. When she started talking about Kevin on her "date" with Allen to get revenge for sending the guilt trip email I about died of laughter.Syntax Error said:
He does have an awesome jacket but i dont see how he is trying to be Dante. and yes all DMCs suck besides 1. 3 had better moves but i liked 1 better.galletea said:
Yeah, they've already been mentioned.
But the Nameless One is just plain awesome. There is nothing cooler, or more badass than him.
Garret, Threepwood and whatever the guy in Outlaws is called takes a nice second place.
I'm sure there's someone I'm missing, but most games have just awful protagonists. James, from Return to Krondor is almost worthy of a mention, far more personality than any games released nowadays. The problem with most games that have a "developed" protagonist is that they're not predefined. Fallout, Bloodlines, etc. It's your own character, and not a real protgonist, they can't really be judged like this.
I really would like to name another character, but I can't, both because the game hasn't even begun development, and because I can't say the name, but damn, that girl is awesome.

Really partial to Jade from Beyond Good and Evil and Yuri Hyuga from the first two Shadow Hearts games.
