Best new videogame character in 2007

Male

Captain Price



Not exactly a new character seeing as he was also in CoD2 but meh, whatever...


Female

Kai



Nariko was boring. Kai and Bohan were the real stars of Heavenly Sword. I hope she gets her own game.

Male

Altair



I didn' t like the game much but the character is cool.

Female

Liara



Most Asari are cool and she' s the one you had most contact with in the game. If you wanted to you could have A LOT of contact with her

Male

Urdnot Wrex, the krogan from ME

or


The Big Daddy. Enough said

female
I didnt really have a favorite female character. Perhaps the chick from Heavenly Sword, but I havent had a chance to play a whole lot of the game so I' m not sure.

and for female




I didn' t get to play to many 07 games, so Nathan and Elena are for me

ORIGINAL: Chimura

and for female

But they scrapped that design...

Altair was the biggest douchebag in 2007.

He claims innocent people will live if they talk and tell him whgat they know.

And then after that he kills them.

WTF?!

I know some of the guys you beated really was " bad" but a majority clearly isnt,or atleast you cant be sure of that from what they are telling.

Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

Done

For those Uncharted-iliterates, the final render is the one on the right

Edit: Altair was kind of a douchebag, but there was quite a bit of character development for him, which was way more interesting than the game' s storyline.

Altair had his finger cut off so he could use the badass blade attached to his wrist. You can' t get much cooler than that...

Well altair is hiding his own tracks " for the better good" I mean to cover up his real mission.

But then again,without spoiling too much,his organistation was just as the others,they took life they didnt think deserved to live.

And Altair is just like other people in his position, they do what they' re told, being a member and all, y' know? Altair' s difference is that he questions the motives.

Ofc,but his own organistation and leader doesnt like that atleast not from the start and we all know what happend in the end,when their leader can do what " he wants" .

I thought Altair was an emo and wannabecool, felt perfect for the 14 year old children of today, but didn' t really suit me at all.

Favorite new male character of this year has to be Big Daddy

and favorite female I gues the computer from Portal, perhaps.

Hasn' t been a great year for characters. Thats something mainstream games really need to work on these days.

Best ones are either from Bioshock or Orange Box though. Alyx still gets on my nerves however, but I suppose its better than being indifferent about her. I liked the self-defeated turrets in Portal.

I don' t understand the frequent use of the term " emo" .
As soon as something is remotely cool or mysterious it suddenly becomes " emo" .
Exaggerated emo-ism can of course feel pretty cheap and childish but sometimes you need some of that too. But in any case, I don' t think Altair is very emo. People nowadays seem to have some need to get rid of any kind of emo-ism as possible. Now THAT' S childish.

And I didn' t think Altair was wannabecool, I think it was a pretty " natural" coolness he had.
His personality and appearance was motivated by his profession and history. I don' t know what kind of character you were expecting, some kind of Sam Fisher or Rambo... in medieval Jerusalem? Now THAT would' ve been retarded. It wouldn' t fit the story or the setting at all.

You didnt think Altair was a bit naive for a supposed ultra assassin?

Diasy from Doctor Daisy Pet Vet

"If you knew how good I am you would think I'm modest."

You didnt think Altair was a bit naive for a supposed ultra assassin?

Had he been an alone assassins then yes, he would' ve been very naive.
But since he was part of a brotherhood and just followed orders it works fine to me. Call him indoctrinated, whatever you want. The nazi soldiers killed jews in sick ways just because they were ordered to do so.

I wasn' t expecting anything, and I' m not obsessed over " emo-ism" , however I really thought that everything about Altair seemed to have been design to fit the current trend of " coolness" and i also believe that mysterious characters can be cool and stuff, however I did not think Altair was cool in any way. It' s a matter of personal preference, and Altair... not only because of the character self, but also because of the influence of the whole story of AC, made me think wow, this would have been cool, if only I was 7 years younger.

Note: I am NOT trying to anger anyone who likes Altair, I' m only saying I did not find him cool at all, while giving as little reasoning as possible as to why, becausew I' m lazy.

The portal chick is the only worthy mention.

Dyonisious, I get what you' re saying about Altair. I for one didn' t find him " cool" either, but the fact that he developed throughout the story at least made him a good character. Better than most 1-D and 2-D characters out there in most videogames now at days anyway.

Altair is like a medieval Batman to me.
Batman is cool.
