Top 5: Video Game Characters

It's been a while since I posted, and I think that in the last post, I mentioned how I have been feeling pretty sickly as of late. I haven't been able to finish my Dragon age 2 review yet, so I wanted to let you know that I'm still committed to writing posts, so I'm going to make two consecutive posts. One about gaming and one about anime. So without further delay, here are 5 of my favorite video game characters.

5: Viktor Reznov- Call of Duty: World at War

The best character from the best call of duty game. He was such an icon that they couldn't kill him off. Instead, he returns several times in both call of duty black ops games. However, if you were a fan of world at war, you probably agree with me when you say that was Reznov at his finest.






4: Link-Legend of Zelda

How can you not love this adventurer? The world is getting destroyed by monsters and what's Link doing? Fishing. Despite that, his over all slacker demeanor makes the game hilarious.










3: Ezio Auditore- Assassin's Creed 2/Brotherhood/Revelations

Let's be completely serious on this one. That accent. That's all I have to say. Listening to Ezio speak was totally worth the 80 or 90 hours I spent beating the Assassin's Creed games.But, for real, I think that the whole game was more interesting when you get to see how Ezio grows up over the course of the three games.









2: Faith Connors- Mirror's Edge

This is possibly one of the most mysterious of all game characters. It's been a while since I've played this game, but as far as I remember, they don't really tell you that much about Faith. You discover quite a bit as the game progresses, but not enough to satisfy my desire to know about the environment in this game.







1: Hawke- Dragon age 2

There hasn't been anything as satisfying as completing Dragon age 2. Almost half of the events in the game are decided by choices you make, starting with what class you pick. Nonetheless, Hawke represents one of my favorite gaming experiences of all time, so I have to say that I am a bit partial to this character. Over every thing else, the your own choices decide how enjoyable the game is and also how Hawke behaves and speaks, which makes the character closer to you in this game than in any other that I have played.
