Keith Houchen Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Good shout on Big Smoke although I enjoyed offing Ryder more, Sherm headed busta fo real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Justice Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I liked Ryder. He just succumbed to peer pressure, and as Craig 'Ice Cube' Jones once said "peer pressure's a mother fucker". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted March 18, 2011 Moderators Share Posted March 18, 2011 Big Smoke is a good shout, but I kinda felt sorry for him by the end of it all. Â I know I've said I wasn't too nuts about GTAIV overall, but when I was still enjoying it in the early going I really, really enjoyed finally getting to kill Vlad whilst he begged for his life.

You didn't have to kill him, but I'm sure most of us did anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Favourite protagonist: Â Gabriel Logan You can keep your Snaaaaake, Logan is WAY cooler. He doesn't have all these bizarre familial hangups, addictions and man crushes that make Snake such a noofter. No, he's all man. He's the Bond we never got in videogames, swanning around swanky exhibitions in a dinner jacket, parachuting into mountain top plane crashes, generally kicking ass and taking names. The first 2 Syphon Filter games are amongst the best action shooters ever created, and IMO pissed all over Splinter Cell, MGS and their ilk.

Paid Members FLips Posted March 18, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted March 18, 2011 I used to love the Syphon Filter games as a kid, but I downloaded Syphon Filter 1 on the PS Store a while back and realised it was all rose-tinted glasses. It handles like absolute shit and looks like a kid made it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Seven Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Gabe Logan has the funniest run animation of any character. Â Great shout on Rufus for anatagonist, I had a bit of a man-crush on him if it's possible to have such a thing for a videogame character. Sephiroth is an obvious shout due to his multi-layered character, amazing look and all-round awesomeness. Â My choices: Â Protagonist: Â Â Yep, it's Gorgeous George Stobbart of Broken Sword fame. Why do we love George? Because he's an everyman, a goof, a hero and a wisecracking Yank all rolled into one. If you haven't experienced the point and click genuine of Broken Sword then you're missing out on one of the most relatable and likeable characters you'll ever have control of. Â Antagonist: Â Â The one and only Liquid Snake. Meglomaniacal, insane and so OTT it hurts, Liquid is the best Bond villain to never face off against 007. His story and character arc are wonderful to watch and it's probably my favourite voice performance in gaming history. Â "HAVE AT YOU SNAKE!"

Yoghurt Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Speaking of which Mr. Seven, have you played Broken Sword 2.5? Â http://www.brokensword25.com/ Â It's not the same voices, but it's pretty close, and for a fan made game is a stellar continuation of the Templar story.

Terrifying, but at least when his music played it gave you a warning, unlike the times when you'd just be walking about, minding your own business (as much as you could in a zombie infested city, anyway), and then *BLAM, PTSSSSHHHH* the fucker would dive through a window. There was no escape, like Gatso catching the scent of a vulnerable women, he just kept HUNTING you. He also put a stop to the old "Go into another room and regroup" strategy, yeah, if you ran away from Nemesis into another room he'd STILL KEEP CHASING YOU!, revolutionary, there were no safe-havens in the game. I'm not sure summing him up as a "Monster that can open doors!" does him justice, but it'll have to do, and come to think of it, I'm not sure it's even been done since.

Moderators PowerButchi Posted March 18, 2011 Moderators Share Posted March 18, 2011 Best Antagonist   G. CEARA  You're on Super Monaco GP. You've battered A. Assaselin into submission, pissed all over the Bestowals, and hammered Madonna. You're the World Champion and you and James Hunt are doing coke off hookers arses on your yacht moored in Monte Carlo. The new season comes, and there's a new competitor in a shit car who challenges you. You have no choice but to take the challenge. It's G. Ceara, and he's going to fuck you up. No matter what you do he's going to knock fuck out of you around Imola, and give you a trouncing in Brazil, and you lose your awesome team, join a shit one and essentially have to climb the ranks again while Ceara and James Hunt laugh at you while they quaff Moet et Chandon in a Casino.  You can't fucking beat him. People have done it on youtube, but I reckon they're cheating. No matter what you do in your superior car you are always going to be 0'33 of a second behind him. He's a cunt. He's too damn good, and that's why he's the best antagonist of all time.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members ReturnOfTheMack Posted March 18, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted March 18, 2011 Progonist has to go to Duke Nukem. I loved him as a kid, the attitude was just brilliant to the 12 year old me. Â Antagonist is Pyramid Head. I've never felt as under threat in a game in my life.
