Tali from the Mass Effect series, or this little guy:
You just have to admire his tenacity and skill.
You just have to admire his tenacity and skill.
Though, I don't know if it counts as a game really.
HK-47 wins this one for me. Too lazy to provide a pic; doesn't matter too much, his dialogue is what makes him.
gordon freeman!
or the aperture science robot
instead of a picture
we have song lyrics!
This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction.
Aperture Science
We do what we must
because we can.
For the good of all of us.
Except the ones who are dead.
But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are still alive.
I'm not even angry.
I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart.
And killed me.
And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.
As they burned it hurt because I was so happy for you!
Now these points of data make a beautiful line.
And we're out of beta.
We're releasing on time.
So I'm GLaD. I got burned.
Think of all the things we learned
for the people who are still alive.
Go ahead and leave me.
I think I prefer to stay inside.
Maybe you'll find someone else to help you.
Maybe Black Mesa
THAT WAS A JOKE.
HAHA. FAT CHANCE.
Anyway, this cake is great.
It's so delicious and moist.
Look at me still talking
when there's Science to do.
When I look out there, it makes me GLaD I'm not you.
I've experiments to run.
There is research to be done.
On the people who are still alive.
And believe me I am still alive.
I'm doing Science and I'm still alive.
I feel FANTASTIC and I'm still alive.
While you're dying I'll be still alive.
And when you're dead I will be still alive.
STILL ALIVE

Gotta love the LOK series. Always a hard choice to pick between the 2 but I think Kain does just take it on sheer bad assness
Justin. From the original Grandia.
Not only is Justin happy and optimistic, both of which I appreciate very much in a JRPG hero (I got FED UP with the "Moody Douchebag" - type of hero about 15 minutes into Final Fantasy VIII), he also possesses a unique quality the likes of which I have never seen in any other game of this type:
Justin is a perfectly ordinary person.
This is a very refreshing difference from the normal setup, where the hero is the ONLY person in the world that can keep the villain from destroying it.
Other RPG heroes need to travel the world to find out how to defeat the villain, or to collect the artifacts they need in order to do so. At the outset, Justin doesn't NEED to go anywhere. He DECIDES to travel the world, because he wants to explore it. He's just having fun. (He does end up saving the world anyway, but pretty much only by chance.)
This is MY motivation. This is why I play the game. I want to explore the game world. I want to have fun.
In other RPGs, I occasionally have trouble following the story because the heroes will stand around discussing plot details while I'm more eager to go and find out what's behind that mountain in the background. In Grandia, if there is a mountain on-screen, it's a safe bet that Justin feels the same way about it as I do.
It really is surprising how much difference something like that can make!

Um...
Really just pick any BioWare character at random. They are all the best but HK-47 takes the prize for me.
