What character and why? It's probably going to be common, but being Solid Snake would be pretty cool. The man can hide in boxes, kick the crap out of people, run nearly silently, carry lots of things while wearing tight clothes, and he smokes. All in all, he's pretty damn cool. :cool:

Master Chief.

Gordon Freeman - Silent mofo but nevertheless he gets Alyx :dopefish: Imagine this in real-life:
A hot girl: "Hey! Funny you show up on this day in particular..."
You: "..."
A hot girl: "You make me feel so horny with not talking at all"
You: "..."
A hot girl: "I see... you you want to check out who's da boss?!"
You: "..."
A hot girl: "Ok you're the boss - Come here sexy!!" :doh:
Oh and Leon - Who wouldn't want to kick some zombie a$$?!?

Runner-up would be Max Payne. The "real" Max Payne, from the first game ;)
Why he went from a 20-something badass to a middle aged man with a midlife crisis I will never understand.

Either him or Duke Nukem. :cool: Or Elexis. :love:

No, really - I can't decide between Postal Dude, Duke Nukem and Gordon Freeman. Maybe a compromise - muscular blonde man with sunglasses, wearing HEV suit who desn't mind using cat as a shotgun silencer. :cool:

i`d like to be.. guybrush threepwood, such a lovable fellow :)
Wow, nobody picked any console characters yet.
I really like to be sora for some reason, maybe cuz' I like kingdom hearts so much.
The Prince of Persia.
Running up walls and slashing sand creatures in two, then sleeping with a totally perfect (in my opinion, at least) woman... That's me B)

04-23-2006, 04:05 PM
Leon from Resident Evil 4 was cool... (never tried Resident Evil 2)
Duke Nukem... Yeah, why not... He has a "nice" lifestyle, and he's awesome...
Caleb from Blood... Mainly becasue he's cool, and has nice clothes...
Alien from AVP 2... Causing trouble as a single Alien, by only using brains and strentgh hasn't been more fun than this... :D
That FEAR main character dude...
AND, if i was a girl:
Samus Aran from Metroid (or Metroid Prime) Damn, she's good looking, and her suit is coooooool... :cool:
Rayne from Bloodrayne... Staying young in many years, having overwhelming better-than-normal-humans power, and a sexy body is cool... Isn't it..?
Zelda/Sheik from Legend of Zelda... :cool:
Cate Archer from NOLF 1-2

Ahh... Yeah, now i remember him... :)
PS
I'd like to add another female character...
Isako from NOLF 2... She's one of the hottest Ninja's i know of...
That said, please show me some other female Ninja looking even better... :D

Master Chief
Arbiter
Caleb
Doom guy
Heretic Guy
Cleric from Hexen
Ridley
A space pirate
Girls:
Samus Aran
...
I think thats all.
I got another idea, who would you like to have as a buddy?
Battlelord. No more getting picked on in school.

Oh, oh, Ryo Hasuki form Shenmue, he looks daft but he has some great fighting skills. Although I'd make sure I wasn't as stupid as him and got all the hints that girl in town kept giving.
Girl: "Ryo, I really miss seeing you..."
Ryo: "Huh?"
Girl: "In scholl, you don't come lately."
Ryo: "Hmm."
*Makes note*
"That girl says she misses me, what does she mean? Perhaps she is worried aobut my education?"
Hmm, for a friend? How about Gordon Freeman, he seems like a smart guy. Handy during exam time.

Wow, nobody picked any console characters yet.
You just said the c-word... GET HIM!
Anywho, I'd have to say Garrett from Thief. Definitely not 47 from Hitman, too risky - being in medieval times as Garrett would be more interesting.

I guess Solid Snake, Samus, Master Chief and Mario aren't console characters?

04-23-2006, 06:39 PM
There's a character in Street Fighter named Ryu Hayabusa? Huh, when I saw that, I thought of the Ryu Hayabusa from the Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive games.
Personally though, I'd like to be Jack Carver from Far Cry Instincts (Predator). Sure, there are plenty of things that I don't like in that game but being able to use Feral Speed, Ferel Sense, Feral Strength, Feral Attack, Feral Climb, and being able to regenerate from injuries extremly quickly sounds like the choice I would take.:D
Phayzon
04-23-2006, 06:39 PM
Samus, MC, and Mario could pull it off:
HaloPC
Metroid Fusion (Handheld, not console :p )
Super Mario Advance.
BUT... I said Arbiter, and hes only in Halo2
EDIT: Forgot one in my female list: Joanna(sp?) Dark :doh:
EDIT: Saying that made me think of... James Bond :p
Blade from sin..cause he gets to work with that hot chick Jessica Cannon, and go up against another babe, Elexis.
and of course Duke Nukem.:)
YicklePigeon
04-23-2006, 06:54 PM
Regardless that I'm a guy: Cate Archer!
If only for the fact I'd be able to get away with cutting remarks and, should I not get away with it, have the firepower to put the infidels back in their place! :)

Dr. Kill
04-23-2006, 09:43 PM
Hmm... I have a few choices.
Duke Nukem. Complete badass who kills the alien bastards and gets all the chicks. Need I say more?
James Earl Cash (Manhunt). Gets to murder people in horrible ways and get's his revenge in the end.
Caleb. One of the greatest characters ever... I just wish I could play BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDD!!!!!!! :(

Whats stopping you? Theres a sure fire way to get it working in XP you know.
Damien_Azreal
04-23-2006, 09:55 PM
Several different ways to get it working in WinXP.
I use the Deathmask setup on my PC and DosBox on Bon's PC. But Dr. Kill said the Deathmask way doesn't work, don't know if he's ever tried DosBox for it.

04-23-2006, 09:57 PM

Id have to go with Spartan-117 AkA Master Chief from a console. His just so cool, always backed into a corner fighting impossible odds (there may be others, but his may fav... from reading the books and all) :D :love:
And from a PC game, id go with Gordon Freeman. I go with what every body else said about him. In OppForce, I forget your not Freeman are you?
What was the main characters name from FEAR. :confused: Did he even have a name? Id be him too. Cause i think FEAR was the scariest game ive played :D
The kid in me says Sonic the Hedgehog. :)
I'd be inclined to agree with him if the 'hog weren't one more failed game away from videogame rehab.
As far as badasses go, there's Bill Rizer of Contra fame.
He has a spread gun. You can't argue with that.
To whoever mentioned Ryu Hayabusa, I quote Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: "You chose... wisely."
The greatest American war hero who never lived, BJ Blazkowicz; he killed untold numbers of...
-Nazis
-Zombies
-Dogs
-Cyborgs
-Nazi Dogs
-Zombie Nazis
-Zombie Nazi Dogs
-Cyborg Zombie Nazis
...and so forth. If it bled, he killed it.
Ryu of Street Fighter is a good choice in that he possesses the most powerful melee attack ever, the Shin Shoryuken.

well some on the list is repetition but well here goes:
Men:
Caleb - seriously hes badass... "When you get too hell tell them i sent you,, Youll get a groub discount.."
Duke Nukem - again cool badass "Your face your ass whats the difference"..
Commander Keen - do i really need a good reason..
Jhonny Dash - i love monster bash...
Halloween Harry - alien carnage again an all time favorite..
Fear Dude - monolith rulez..
My Nord Monk From Oblivion...
Gordon Freeman - or if there will ever be a concerned mod Frohman...
Women:
Elexis Sinclare - you know why.. :P
Bloodrayne - vampires are cool..
Alma - seriously that would be cool...
can't think of any more right now...

The Postal Dude! When I´m getting mad at someone I would´ve a wide selection of methods to show him what I mean with: "You probably thought you weren't going to die today? Surprise!" :D
Kyle Katarn would be also very usefull, the jedi mindtrick could help in many situations http://www.forum-3dcenter.org/vbulletin/images/3dc/smilies/misc/naughty.gif

Larry Laffer perhaps.. he is a loser and often ends up in very embarrasing situations but when he actually scores, he scores big time :eek:
Or perhaps Roger Wilco.. I'd show those latex babes of Estros a good time heheh :D :p :dopefish:
Or Guybrush Threepwood - Elayne is pretty hot :love:
Hmmm... or some Final Fantasy hero.. anime babes.. (damn it won't allow any more smilies).

I'd also like to add Max Payne.

What was the main characters name from FEAR. :confused: Did he even have a name? Id be him too. Cause i think FEAR was the scariest game ive played :D
Gordon Freeman huh? You realize you would be a mute who couldn't cast a reflection on mirrors and picked objects up with his mind instead of his hands. ;) A mute vampire jedi.
And no, the main character in FEAR doesn't have a name. Not even to himself if you remember some of the stuff Fettle asks him towards the end, and did you ever notice everybody just called him the new guy. ;) He has no past.
I have a second choice, after Caleb I would go with Ethan Thomas from Condemned. Getting to run around with a tazor and a paper cutter blade, slicing up baddies and serial killers. Snapping necks with your bare hands... :D
Do the new guy talks in F.E.A.R.? Anyay, being a new guy that is not a superhero is more immersive than a superhero named freeman who can't talk at all and so can't give orders to the resistance against the enemy.
Damien_Azreal
04-24-2006, 08:30 PM
No, he doesn't speak either. He's the new FEAR pointman, he leads the team into the fight, that's about it.
Monolith stated they wanted to do a story focused shooter that didn't rely on main character development to push the story. They wanted the story to carry itself.
