Worst "side character" in gaming?

[J.B]

Well, I just got back from a session of RE4, and it struck me just how annoying Ashley can be at times. I mean, couldn't Capcom at least had the curtosy to give her huge breast's let her push back attackers, or maybe provide some extra inventory space?

Granted, she's probably not the worst of all time, she's the worst I've ever encountered (Navi excluded, since I was too young to get annoyed at her when I first played OoT).

Anyway, who's your personal worst side character in gaming?

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Dom on insane in Gears 2. Caused mutliple fails.

 

[ICantBelieveItGoesBoom]

Yeah I've got to say Dom I mean seriously GET OVER YOUR FREAKING DEAD WIFE!

 

[Arrers]

Navi by default (only game I've completed with a side character). I've also heard bad things about Yorda from ICO.

 

[DeathSnake]

Dom on insane in Gears 2. Caused mutliple fails.

Hell yes,

The AI on gears when your down really isnt that good at all, he just leaves me an im HUPMPING HIS LEG BLEEDING TO DEATH

On subject, Dom pissed me off. He needs to die.

 

[sokka14]

you've said it already. navi from OoT was infuriating.

another two annoying ones were falco and slippy from lylat wars. slippy because he kept DYING and falco because he was an ungrateful piece of shit.

 

[Azazcyh]

Sheva from RE5 stop trying heal me you crazy chick

 

[AssassinX66]

Its a tie between Navi, Peppy and Slippy.

 

[Sable Gear]

Farah from Sands of Time. Despite her actual human behaviour, she can't aim to save either her pixellated life OR yours, all her arrows either miss or hit the Prince somehow like they've got human-homing tips or something. Then she leaves...and dies. Oh nooo spoilerrsss!

 

[Biek]

Ive always been endlessly annoyed with Donald and Goofy in kingdom hearts. Not only were they useless. They were also annoying as hell.

 

[colo24]

Dom pissed me off so much that i was happy when his wife died

I did do a couple of searches actually, guess I wasn't thorough enough though. My bad.

 

[SageOfCalm]

Slippy, goddamn I hated him, always having to save his ass. And then they decided to give him speech. It was like a huge FU from Nintendo.

 

[Nexus424]

The stupid Star Fox team in Assault. Can't go 5 seconds with me having to save one of their no talent asses.

Next just about all team AI in shooter leaving a special slot for GoW 1&2 and RE:5

=P
Yeah, there are plenty of these threads. It's fine, I was just joking.

 

[The Noble Shade]

Honestly, I didn't mind Slippy or Navi that much. Navi didn't speak that much when I played, and I accepted Slippy as part of the experience.

Now Sheva, believe it or not, DOES NOT heal me when I need her to. She feels like she has to wait five seconds to be sure I need help when I'm dying or under attack, and she always insists on using her fucking handgun. I didn't notice these problems on my first playthrough, though...

 

[The Noble Shade]

Oh, and Chip, from Sonic Unleashed. I wanted to kill that fucking bastard.

 

[Xvito]

Navi, I was seven years old when I first played Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and I'm not even born in an English speaking country, still she annoyed me to death (not literally of course, since I'm typing here).

"Hey listen" "Hey listen" "Hey listen" "Hey listen", it haunts me to this day...

 

[Jason Danger Keyes]

In all fairness to Sheva, Chris is just as bad when you play AS Sheva.
