(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); As of late, I've been drifting away back into the world of campaign based gaming. I've been all the way from my Gamecube with The Ocarina of Time to my Playstation 2 with 007: Nightfire. Since I'm starting to play games that are centered around a story and main characters that can be as badass or as awesome as you'd like, I've decided to see which characters the community thinks are the best.

All you have to do is post one or more of your favorite characters in this thread, and then, once I've gathered enough opinions, I will post a new thread with a list of the top characters that our community has chosen, their origins, and some interesting facts about them. It's easy enough, all you have to do is list your favorites. Like this!

Here's a list of my personal favorites:

1. Captain Price from Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

CAPTAIN PRICEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! This is the real hero in Call of Duty. Which one of you could throw a gun across a bridge in an ending cutscene of a game right before the big finale? Pssh... only Captain Price is capable of such a feat.

2. Duke Nukem (aka The Most Badass Badass of All Time) from Duke Nukem

Duke Nukem, popular voice of the Duke Nukem soundboard, is quite arguably the coolest badass ever to grace the world of gaming. Don't be a pansy, you know you agree.

3. Masterchief from Halo

Masterchief is, well... he's Masterchief. End of story.

4. CJ from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

This guy is honestly one of the coolest from the Grand Theft Auto franchise. Who could ever forget his awesome banter?

5. Mario from Super Mario Brothers

He kicks undeniable amounts of ass, and you know it. He also has a supercool mustache.



Alright, alright, you get the point. That was just to get the ball rolling in some of your heads. So, NGU, let's hear it. Who deserves to go down in history as the coolest character ever to be featured in a game? You decide.

Completely forgot about Leon from Resident Evil 4. I'm not lying here, but Leon was ****ing rapesauce. For those who did play Resident Evil 4, you'd know why.

But back to topic, I'd have to go with Mario. The guys just iconic. Everybody knows who Mario is.


Everyone knows who he is, but that doesn't make him the best. Mario was only fun for a limited time, after a while I always ended up on a map I couldn't get passed, or I just got bored of moving right and jumping.

Anyone in that picture is truly epic. If you have respect for gaming you'll agree that Mortal Kombat is the greatest.
