Best new character in 2007?

Everyone has different tastes, i for one think that Master Chief is one of the worst character designs ever and while playing Assassins Creed, not once did i think Altair was badass because all i saw in him was Desmond with a hood.

My Favorites.

Nathan Drake - Uncharted

White Cubic - The Eye of Judgment

Sander Cohen, Andrew Ryan - Bioshock

Kai - Heavenly Sword
 
I've only played about a half an hour of uncharted on a friend's machine, but I don't get the love of Drake as a character.

I get that they were trying to go for the everyman, but Drake comes across to me as just underconceived and bland.

Dude is I played every game for 30 minutes I could say the same thing about every character.

Funny, I've only played half an hour of Portal, and I don't get why people think GlaDOS is such an interesting character either.

/sarcasm


PS: I also like Kai from HS.

Love the Drake...playing as him was a very unique and enjoyable experience. I pray to God Naughty Dog's working on a sequel.

Just about the whole cast of Heavenly Sword, especially Nariko and Bohan are my picks. My least favorite is Shepard from ME, he comes off as an NFL guy turned actor like Bozworth.

Can I vote for my sexy female red-head Shepard from Mass Effect or not?

Love the character/classes on Team Fortress 2.

Luke Atmey is pretty awesome too.

Godot is badass though.

I laughed my ass off at that part. :lol

The most funny thing is that I always played PW3 by the end of the day, sitting on a couch drinking coffe. Whenever Godot was holding his cup, I was holding mine. :D

I give a nod to Nathan Drake.

I dont see how people can call him a generic character. He has ton of personality for a digital character.

Agreed. He's kind of a Han Solo / Indiana Jones hybrid, only a little more blue and snarkier than Han is. Tons of personality either way. It doesn't hurt that the guy doing his voice is doing a major Nathan Fillion voice.

I also agree that Sander Cohen and GLaDOS are both fantastically well written and acted.

All the characters that have already been mentioned from BioShock, Mass Effect, and Portal/TF2, but my top two are Urdnot Wrex and GLaDOS.

Oh, where to begin?

GlaDOS - Portal (Best in-game dialogue I've heard for some time)

Godot/Luke Atmey/Dahlia - Phoenix Wright 3 (
Three of the best antagonists in the whole series
)

Geralt/The Professor/Lady of the Lake - The Witcher (Geralt is just a true badass, The Professor is a sadistic psycho and the Lady is well, quite the sight indeed. :D)

And I haven't gotten to Mass Effect yet.

I loved whenever Distant Traces of Beauty (Dhalia's theme) played in the game. Such a soothing song.
