John Blade in Sin and Sin: Episodes is black, and those games are great.

EDIT: Oh, and cant you play as a Black Cop in Resident Evil Outbrake file 1 and 2?

True. I agree. I really don' t even think about it too much when I' m playing a game. I DO, however, notice that when a black man is in a game (because I don' t think they' ve EVER had a black WOMAN in a game!) that they usually fit some stereotypical archtype.

Well, I' m not in the game industry, therefore I am powerless to change these things. Oh well.

Garcian Smith from Killer7 -> lead, and complex, character, though hidden away a little by the Killer7 themselves...

Black women - the lead character in Urban Chaos (not the new FPS game, the old Mucky Foot one) - can' t remember her name off the top of my head.

There' s a real shocker! LOL

Good call, though.

Actually, Alex, the girl in Half-Life 2 was a pretty cool character. She wasn' t THE main character, but Gordon Freeman is too cool to replace, so that' s understandable.

Spawn is black to the raw core fo' shizzle yo' .

He be gangster like cool yo' .

Even if he has that green sh!t all up in his body, but he be big and black yo.

Y' all shouldnt talk,

Spawn pwns all dem fake ass nigg@rs wanna be white trash...

....
....

That was WAY too much effort..

But I do think Spawn is black, even if he is a hell demon, he was black before and
his Wife Wanda was also black, but he' s not really mainstream in videogames,
more in movies..

Yeah I realised he was black before the ' ' transformation' ' now....oh and just because you have a ' ' black wife' ' does' nt put it in concrete that her husband must be black....

or maybe it does

....Al Simmons, aka dude who sold his soul and became Spawn...

...and yea, just like Blade and Shadowman, Spawn is primarily a comic based main character, which doesn' t count....

...

...another black female side-kick was XIII' s Major Jones...

...now i know why...

Yeah, I was shocked too when I found that out... Apparently she was riding high
on the success of other franchises such as Wu-Tang that she wanted a slice of the
videogame pie...

Anyone think that Ultimate SpiderMan stole some base ideas from XIII?

The style I mean...

Hmmm you could say that I guess.

Personally I' m more inclined to think that since one of the most distinctive features of the new Ultimate Spiderman comics was the art style, they did what they had to do to keep that art style in the game.

...but they definitely took some cues.

Trust Sony to exploit EVERY opening nook and cranny in that
statement.

Hirai and Kutaragi attacked it like it was a fresh batch of Japanese concubines...

Also, there' s two black characters in Perfect Dark: Zero, Both females. The one that Jo talks to on the Radio (or whatever it is) In the first level.

And then that other one.. cant remember her name, but she' s evil (You fight her in some stupid simulator or whatever it is).
