5. Master Chief Really, what is special about this character? Nothing. Basically a generic space marine that got popular because the series got huge. You don't see his face and he is nearly a silent protagonist, so he has no personality. He just became an icon because the series he was in became a mjor multi million selling hit. 4. Kratos Lowest common denominator. This character is the embodiment of everything wrong with video games...dumb sensless violence. Who cares about his somewhat "tragic" backstory, he is there just to kill everyone in his path, as violently as possible. And the stories in the God of War games are far from great, all style and very little substance. This character is what a teenager finds awesome and smart people find mindless. 3. Cloud Strife Mediocrity put up on a high pilliar all because the game he was in was a huge breakthrough. Most of the cast of FFVII could be on this list, but since Cloud is the icon, he is on the list. There is really nothing special about him. Is he truly a better protagonist than a knight who seeks redemption for his actions, or am abusedmixed species girl who tries to find out what it means to be human, or a fallen young female general looking for hope, or that caring, happy go lucky thief with a tail? Nope. He is not a bad character, he is just average by comparison, with his only special traits being that he was in the game that got big and that he has a sword a size of a car trunkthat looked cool then but ridiculous now. 2. Gordon Freeman I love Half Life and HL2, but c'mon people, Gordon Freeman is not a great character. He has no personality and no depth and considering he is a scientist, very rare protagonists in games, a huge oppurtunity was blown to make him more than an icon, but an actually character. Jack from Bioshock has more personality than Freeman does. He is also by far, not the greatest video game character ever. Not even close. For him to win the Gamespot contest was simply ludicrious. Main reason why he i son the list. Now, Alyx Vance...we have a great character there.... 1. Sephiroth The most overrated villain ever. The only thing that he really has is that he is a great foil to Cloud (and he is kind of menancing)...thats it. He lacks a motive, a huge plot hole in FFVII. Why does he want to become a god and devestate the world? Nope, all we get is fan speculation. People think he is the most evil villain ever, especially for killing Aeris....WRONG..there are far more saidstic and sinister villains in gaming, including that sociopath in the previous installment. Then there is people who think he is the ultimate tragic villain...nope, there are a bunch of better tragic antagonists. I can a name 20 video game villains better than Sephiroth.He is not the best video game villian ever,or the best Final Fantasy villain ever, and he is not even the best villain in FFVII. ***SPOILER***

All I can say is thank you. SpongeBob has taken away from my ability to make witty comments.

Complaining about lack of sleep when it's only 3AM? C'mon, I'm occasionally up till a little past 5AM (reason for being awake varies) and I don't use that as an excuse for bad posts.

If you can't even muster the intelligence to create threads with your own thoughts and words then why the fuck are you even making threads to begin with?

What can I say? We enjoy mocking/ridiculing other people's shortcomings.

Well I got one:

Lightning.

Basically a Squall who decided to lob off his dick and dye his hair pink. Squall is so much better.

What's wrong with Lightning? She isn't overrated, she's just super sexy.

I concur!

And that Miku image is AWESOME!

imo Squall is way overrated. He's just an emo faggot who should have just emoed way more and kill himself. I never liked him, not even when I was younger. And on top of his annoying attitude he looks annoying. I hate his face and generic hair. And that fucking scar on his face, generic much? Also, that jacket:

Gackt much.

I've never hated any character as much as him.
