    Poll Rank the 3 protagonists - favorite to least (106 votes)

    Michael, Franklin, Trevor 25%
    Michael, Trevor, Franklin 14%
    Franklin, Michael, Trevor 17%
    Franklin, Trevor, Michael 6%
    Trevor, Michael, Franklin 26%
    Trevor, Franklin, Michael 12%

    I'm interested to know who everyone's favorite to least favorite protagonists in GTA V. I like Michael and Franklin's story arc and, oddly, missions more then Trevor's. This seems to fly in the face of what I've heard from all my friends, as they say Trevor was their favorite character of the three.

    Am I crazy or is it all about your taste?

    Micheal, Franklin, Trevor.

    I like all characters, but had more fun with Micheal's and Franklin's missions.

    Michael, Trevor, Franklin.

    I like them all to be honest but Michaels story grabbed me the most. Trevor was crazy in a way that sometimes I could get behind and sometimes actually scared me a little. Franklin, while fine, was just a bit whiny tbh.

    They all suck in their own very special ways.

    I like them all equally. They are all three pretty great. But I went with Trevor, Franklin, Michael. Trevor first because he makes me laugh every time I play as him. Franklin next because he has some really cool stuff and some funny stuff too (plus Lamar with either F or T is some of the best stuff in the game). Micheal last because of all the lame family crap.

    Micheal, Trevor, Franklin.

    I really enjoyed all the Family drama with Micheal's family and Jimmy is pretty hilarious. Trevor is just completely insane and I love it. Franklin is a good character but I didn't get into him as much as the other two story wise. I guess I'm just not a big fan of the gang stuff.

    Franklin, Michael, Trevor.

    Car bullet time makes Franklin my favorite off the bat (he's also a good character, but man do I love that slow motion car driving). Michael and Trevor are kinda tied but Michael has the most money right now.

    I really love the story with Michael and his family. It also had a perfect conclusion. Trevor on the other hand was a psycho and totally fucked up. He was a very interesting character because you never knew what he would do next. Frankling was your normal GTA character he was totally fine but he did not stand out as much as the other two.

    Michael's probably my favorite. Franklin and Trevor go back and forth. Trevor's funny and his unhinged behavior is a breath of fresh air when faced with smug assholes like Haines and Westin, but he can be a dick sometimes. Franklin just seems inconsequential to the story once the Trevor/Michael drama gets introduced. Basically, Franklin is cool when it's just a buddy criminal movie with Michael and Lamar. But once it gets serious with the main story, he just seems like a third wheel.

    Michael is half Frank and half Trevor which is probably why I like him the most.

    Michael is my favourite, Trevor is pretty damn funny and Franklin is a spineless gangsta with an extremely annoying friend.

    Franklin is my favorite, followed by Michael. They're both really likeable guys, and well written. I really dislike Trevor, but in a good way.

    Michael is my favorite. I haven't picked between the other two yet, but Michael is clearly starting to enjoy himself a whole lot.
