Some of our heroes and heroines are so larger-than-life that we get so fond of them. Do we even make them our idols? My latest favourite hero: Brian Basco (Runaway 2).

Another character that I like is Professor "Windlenut" Windlenot (He is a really tragic character in Shivers I). I can also think of one villain who is really cool. He is "the Nemesis" in Zork Nemesis.

(Dear friends, I have edited my first post and the topic title. I think it is better that we keep to adventure game characters. Cheers.)

I like Brian Basco also. I also liked almost every character in TLJ and Zoe in Dreamfall. But I think one of my favorites would have to be Joshua in Runaway 2. He cracks me up.

One that I can't forget is Mephisto of Seven Games of Soul. Not a hero but memorable.

Marita, I cant tell you how many times I started that game and never got passed the Gazebo over looking that lake or whatever.

There are so many great characters but I think my favourites are Gabriel Knight, Baron Von Glower :kiss: , the gardener in the Carol Reed mysteries :kiss: :kiss: :kiss: , George Stobart, Al Emmo, Assil in Ankh & Kate Walker!

JB, But the music at that gazebo was wonderful.

JB -- I'll join you at the gazebo! Nice view too. Mephisto can't be trusted -- maybe you're safest staying where you are.

My favorite game characters are Sushi from Runaway and Tony Tough.

Don't hit me Becky but I find Sushi very annoying.

Hmmm. Does that mean that you don't find Tony annoying?

Tony was cutez!

Mine would be Tony Tough and Kate Walker

I love Nancy Drew/Sushi/And My all time Favorite issssss...Lara Croft

Isn't Lara Croft Action/Adventure? Now Darlene you just started a thread about "I Wish They'd Get It Right".

JohnBoy....My Dear

I started out Playing Tomb Raider Games before Adventure

PS: I like the Character..Has nothing to do with whether I like the Game Play

My bad! I cant read. I thought it was adventure game character only. In that case Alice in American McGees Alice and the Cheshire Cat are my favorite of all.

Its always neat to hear everybody's choices.

My favorite game characters would have to include Atrus (Myst/Uru), Oscar (Syberia), Dungeon Master Dalboz (Zork:GI), "Wow! You flew back ten feet when you opened that box!" Sir Gil Blythe Geoffreys (Riddle of the Sphinx & Omega Stone), Manny (Grim Fandango), Cho (Riven), Wizard Trembyle (Return to Zork), George Stobbart (Broken Sword series), Lewton (Discworld Noir), Bosco from Sam & Max, the never- yet- seen Sonny Joon, Bess, & George from the Nancy Drew series, the neat old Parisian Lady from Broken Sword 1, and "want some rye? COURSE ya do!" Booz Miller from RTZ. Such determined hospitality cannot fail to warm the heart - and pickle the liver.

I'm going way outside the PC game box cause my favorite character is Spyro the Dragon. I just have a thing for purple, fire breathing beasts. haha

I like Guybrush Threepwood, Crow from Longest Journey,Rincewind,Simon the Sorcerer,Gabriel Knight and Gracie,George and Nicco,April Ryan,and Tex Murphey.

I liked Assil from Ankh too.

I'm with you there, Space Quest Fan on some of your choices! How could I have ever forgotten to mention Crow, Rincewind & April Ryan!!!

Rincewind, was he the one from Discworld? If so, I LOVED the Discworld games. They were great!

I would certainly have to agree with Kate Walker and Oscar as well as ROTC's,and Nancy Drew. Also liked Arianne from Journey to the Center of the Earth.

Hi

There are so many good game characters it's really difficult to choose - but I do especially like Gabriel Knight

[It might have something to do with the delectable voice of Mr. Curry, of course ]

Cheers.

Mad

Got to be Gabriel Knight

I think Gabriel Knight fans should send Tim Curry a "thank you" note, for creating one of the best loved characters.
