I only really care for characters I create myself.. MMO, RPG games where you create your own are the only characters I ever care about.

 

[Samnite]

Revan - Knights of the Old Republic - not sure if he counts as he just became me, essentially, but me with force lightning and a power unironically named 'Kill.'

Ghost - Modern Warfare 2 - actually liked the bugger. Plus the skull face is awesome, and he got there before Halo Reach's Emille.

Garrus Vakarian - Mass Effect 2

Anthony/Ben Carmine - Gears of War (2) - more or less the same person.

Sten - Dragon Age - the only character who I didn't have to work to get to like me, as it turned out we agreed on almost everything. Not sure what that says about me, though...

[HT_Black]

The first two that come to mind are Agent 47 (Hitman) and Altair ibn la Ahad (Assassin's Creed). They're both seemingly-emotionless killers on the surface, but when you look deeper and pay attention to the subtlties in both the acting and the writing, there's so much pent-up emotion in those characters that it could make a psychiatrist's head spin.

After that, I think of GLaDOS (Portal) and the Prince (Prince of Persia 2008) they're inverse copies of each other: GLaDos is a sadistic robotic killer (and damn good singer) who poorly attempts to mask her conniving ways with a facade of friendliness before she just loses it and goes psycho. Meanwhile, the Prince is a misplaced noble who was cheated out of his family and his fortune and had to resort to graverobbing to keep himself alive; and he masks his inner weakness with a wall of one-liners and fatalism.

Finally, I think of Alyx Vance (Half-Life 2). Do I have to explain why?

[Grouchy Imp_v1legacy]

I only really care for characters I create myself.. MMO, RPG games where you create your own are the only characters I ever care about.

Totally agree. My Vvardenfell Warmage or New Vegas Scavenger are infinitely cooler (to me) than any of the industry's premade characters.
