Mine is Niko Bellic, why because he is relateable as he tries to make a simple life. He cares for his freinds and family first and it dosen't matter if you pay him if you fuck wiht him or anyone he cares about you are going to die.
Favorite video game character and why?

Whenever I play Final Fantasy VI he has to be in my main party without exception.
Well my current favourite would be Hazama from BlazBlue. He is so delightfully evil that he practically gets off on ruining people's days and/or lives.
It's something to do with the character design, the personality, the voice acting, the way he flips between being civil and nice when it suits him then can immediately turn into an absolute evil, manipulative bellend at a moments notice, the evil laughs and the sweet hat all make him this amazingly awesome evil being.
I suppose the fact that he is just a thin guy in a sharp suit and matching hat with zero noticable weapons makes him even cooler since he is the most powerful fighter in the cast. You've got Noel with her dual pistols, Ragna with his fuck off sword, Carl with Nirvana, Relius with Ignis etc etc
Hazama has his bare hands, a few concealed knives and this snake whip thing that he conjures out of thin air. As far as I know that's not even classed as a *proper* weapon by the game's standards, as in it has no offical name or catagory.
Also Phoenix Wright from the Ace Attorney games is one of my favourites, the way the first three games focus on him growing out of this rookie lawyer barely holding things together is exceptional.

Yes Hazama / Terumi is awesome he reminds me of the joker (although he is slightly different) but the way he toys with most of the cast is awesome I love characters like him, I also love Makoto but thats more down to some of her battle quotes like forgetting her lines at the start or saying speak of the devil and laughing when she beats Tager (the red devil) and of course randomly shouting Spoon when attacking she is not given much chance to shine in the story however and I was a little disappointed there but the joke endings she is involved with are absolutely awesome.The Wykydtron said:
Oh and I am pretty sure Hazamas weapon (the whip snake tail thing) is called Ouroboros which is definitely classed as a weapon by game standards as its a Nox Nyctores if I remember correctly.
OT I am not sure who my favourite character is hmmm it maybe Tifa Lockheart a character I initially despised but she grew on me strong, kind and attractive plus I always loved the way she could piledrive Emerald and ruby weapon and destroy things with her fists instead of massive swords or guns and what not.
April Ryan would also be up there because I just thought she was so well written and portrayed especially in the longest journey.
I have a soft spot for crazy and fun characters though even if they may not be my favourite its also why I like Faust from Guilty Gear and Tira from Soul Calibur.
Red Savarin of course.
He's a complete hapless idiot most of the time, he's reckless, immature and puts his foot in his mouth more than anywhere else. But he's honourable, loyal and always does the right thing; just what I like from a character.
Honourable mentions go to:
Alyx Vance
April Ryan
Heather Mason
Tali Zorah
Garrus Vakarian
Colonel Jade Curtiss

Ezio Auditore. If we only had one game with him, then he probably wouldn't be my first choice. But he's the only character that I know of whom we follow from his birth to his twilight days. And it's fascinating to see what he's been through and how it's changed him from a carefree young Florentine noble and a womanizer to a wise old Mentor Assassin. He's just awesome.
But people who said Garrus are also not wrong at all. Garrus is a very close second.

So true. I was going to include him on my list, but I've only played AC II so far, and while I liked him tons, I wouldn't say he was a favorite.Adam Jensen said:
Now Ezio in Embers was definitely a favorite, so I can certainly link the dots there.
John Marston. Do I really need to explain? He's like a gentleman, a western badass, a smooth talker and an all around stand up guy.
I didn't kill a single innocent in my playthrough of RDR just because I figured Marston wouldn't. No other character/game has stopped me from killing innocents before, none!
Went on a bit of a rampage when I got to play as Jack, though.

Connor from Assassins Creed 3. We start off with him as a young child full of life and we see how quickly it all gets destroyed. He is currently my favourite character due to his progression throughout the game. He is the most human of all the Assassin protagonists throughout the whole series.
