Great Character Designs

Now why can't they mix that with classic Sonic gameplay. It's a winning combination!

*points to sonic unleashed*
because the moment the "original fans" see something that isn't a sonic sidescroller while he's running, IT SUCKS!
oh, and to the guy that said eliwood, hector>>> in originality, but this guy right here was made out of awesome:

the black knight

Here's just a few of my picks. Feel free to laugh because my design preferences are different from the norm

 Megaman

Mega Man design?? All I can think about is the horrendous box art from the orginal. x_x

 Spoiler

However, the character I find to be intesting looking has to be this annoying guy

 Spoiler

All of the art in folklore is incredible but this is the best single image I could find

[COLOR="blue"]That sword... ;-;
So much pain..
On the subject of Fire Emblem, I always though Nephenee and that sword-master design from brawl were cool. Anyone with those cool shirts that cover the back and front are like instafavs.

Who else I can think of? Oh yes. Sander Cohen.



If there was one person that will forever be in my mind when I think of a Bioshock character with personality, it has to be him. Crazed homicidal psychopath, or an artist who truly believes there is beauty in the suffering and death of his own kind (other Splicers)? He's like a perfect blend of craziness as well as an eccentric nature. More amusing that

 Spoiler

he's the only Splicer who doesn't pretend to help you, only to betray you in the end.

Grim Fandango was a superlative game.

Odin Sphere, particularly the males, has incredible character art. Oswald and King Odin, primarily. Oswald's demi-human transform state just had amazing animation. False King Allant was pretty badass, too. I generally find old guys with huge grey beards, the murderously insane (Caim), and dudes that have mutating bodies like Oswald and Alex Mercer to be badass.

I sure do envy his rapefaces.

So yeah, I kinda bailed on this thread because I got a little butthurt. I am all better now!



Richter Belmont is best Belmont. Though, most Castlevania characters are well designed. (We don't speak of Judgment.)

Jehuty, ladies and gentlemen. One of the most badass mechs I've ever seen.

Oh man, if we weren't limited to video games, I can show your more mech more badass that what Hideo can come up with.

Grim Fandango was a superlative game.

Agreed. Played it years ago but quit after it crashed and I lost a ton of progress near the end. Gotta replay it sometime...
