  8. Man, this list is very incomplete.

    Link from Zelda?
    Sonic?
    Samas Aran from MegaMan?
    Lara Croft?
    James Bond from GoldenEye? (Might not count)
    PacMan?

  9. Definitely casting my votes for the following, in no particular order:

    Mario
    Link
    Ryu
    Donkey Kong
    Lara Croft
    Sonic
    Francsis, Zoey, Louis, and Bill
    Cloud Stryfe OR Sephiroth
    Snake
    Master Chief
    Gordan Freeman
    Arthas
    Pac-Man 😉
    Ryu Hayubusa

    If the game franchises need mentioning, then obviously, they’re not *that* famous 😉

  18. For me, Super Mario Bros has got to be the one. None of the others can compete. Just my opinion. I know some of you will be screaming at your computer screens in disagreement right now.

  19. What a fail.. it’s named “Popular Game Characters of all time”.. and then there is a list of game names or franchises xD if you want to make a list of characters, why don’t you post their names?

    Also: Samus may be one of the most popular game characters, but neither her name nor her game is called “Mega Man” xD She is not even a man…

    Also no babyface star could replace the old man Max Pain is for me:
