But really I think it's a silly question..it's impossible to compare that many characters and how did you even come up with that list? What factors were you thinking about? and fucking Didact.

That's all I got from the top of my head.
@TooWalrus: @McGhee: You two are awesome. She is one of my favorites game characters for sure. I really like the cast of Persona 4 and some others. A lot of characters from this gen really, seeing how this is when I started playing games with more of a story focus.
Joke answer: Francis York Morgan
Real answer: The black guy from Stroker

I wish Etzios name was Etzio the Assassin
I wish Ezio's name was Etzio.
I don't really understand how some of those characters made that list of yours, but to each his own.
Mario always has been, and always will be the best. He is the single character icon that has come to represent video games, if you think "games" you think Mario. This is not debatable.
As for my personal favorite, that's a bit hard to pin down. There are some really cool one's such as Nathan Drake, Sack Boy, and Solid Snake that I like a lot. I don't really care for characters like Master Chief or Kratos, Master Chief has zero personality and Kratos is nothing but a psychopath.
But if I had to pick ONE, the closest thing that comes to mind is John Marston. He seems more "human" than most game characters. He is basically a man who is trying to make up for his mistakes and be a better person, but his past catches up with him and he is willing to do anything for his family. That's pretty realistic to me.

In the years of research I've looked to see who the best character is here are names that are common
1. Batman
2. Scorpion (Mortal Kombat)
3. Master Chief
4. Joker
5. Spider-man
6. Sam Fisher
7. Etzio The Assassin
8. Venom
9. Scarecrow
10. Didact
who is it?
I don't think you did any research at all. Hell, half of those characters are better known as comic book characters, rather than game characters. Oh, you also don't know how to spell Ezio. Lucky for everyone in this thread I have done some research. Actually, it is more like I remember who kept winning those greatest character of all time tournament polls on Gamefaqs. Granted this is more of a popularity contest and doesn't prove they are "the best," whatever that means. You kind of completely failed to explain what it is you are talking about. What criteria are we suppose to judge anything on? Don't know. Anyway, here are the three guys who always ended up at the top. If you want to know who the internet loves the most it is going to be one of these three.

Real Answer Solid Snake, he actually has a defined character arc through games, and Kojima had the balls to make huge changes to his character in MGS4. Snake can be smart, insightful, charismatic, and deep, all combined to make him a pretty cool character.
My personal answer Duster from Mother 3. I just really like Duster as character. He's just sort of quirky in a way I like.
