    Sorry if your favorite character wasn't listed I only had 10 options to work with and had to throw in the ones I did.

    Voted for link but let me tell you that the fact that you put Cloud (someone who isn't in a series of Final Fantasies) but not Solid Snake who is the main character of one of the most renowned series in the world........is just retarded

    The Nerevarine. I don't think that I've been immersed in any game as much as Morrowind.

    This. I can't take a "Best Main Character" video game poll seriously without Solid Snake being there.

    I never said anything about series. Cloud was one of the most bad ass characters in video game history I thought you would at least go hey Pikachu shouldn't be up there compared to trying to take Cloud out. I was going to put Solid Snake on there, but felt it would be better to throw Lara Croft in the mix.

    Hehe, trouble thread. "Best" can mean all sorts of things, my personal nerd-crush is Lightning from FFXIII



    Or my femshep, but also think Cloud/Master Chief are awesome.

    Depends how you're defining best really.

    Out of that list, Cloud or Link for me. Honorable mention is Mario, and I agree, where is Solid Snake?

    I just can't take that list seriously...Even with the 10-options limit, you still opted to add some very questionable ones in place of a few true iconic ones.

    Out of those? Probably Samus, with Cloud being a distant second.
    All-time? Since we're only counting 'true' protagonists, Minato Arisato. Crono's also up there, but he's still pretty far from the #1 spot. Yes, you're free to slap me all you want.

    I'd say Cloud is one of the most overrated characters in video game history not most badass but my comment was derived from the fact that mainly every character you had up there was part of a video game series not just a single video game.

    Snake is up there, but my vote goes to Fei Fong Wong from Xenogears. Just all around awesome. Fights some serious inner demons and comes out the other end.
