Have you ever played a game were the main character is so stupid and horrible that you start to hate him/her.If so did you stop playing or try and kill him/her on purpose.

Well, the main character of Just Cause annoyed me to the point where I did go out of my way to kill him, usually involving freefall jumps that ended with a resounding splat.

Other than that, the Prince in Warrior Within did peev me slightly, but having the ability to kill him, rewind time and kill him again made up for that.

Agreed. Cloud is obviously retarted, Squall is annoying, and Tidus chose Yuna. I mean, Tidus' tendancy to over-play the 'amnesia' is aggravating. Vaan is...Vaan.

Shion from Xenosaga. God, is she a *****.

When it switched to Raiden halfway through MGS2, going from a legendary hero to playing as a pre pubescant pretty boy who keeps harking on about his love life.

Keep your hands on the trigger, and off your dick

Isaac in Dead Space, because they didn't let him emote. If they'd given him a voice, it would have been better.

Ethan in Condemned 2, because of how much they changed the character.

Frank West in Dead Rising, because he's covered wars y'know!

The Prince in the new Prince of Persia because he's just fucking annoying.

That bastard in Oblivion. God, I hated him...
Yep, I'm a self-loathing schizo.

Actually, I wasn't a big fan of Team Chaotix in Sonic Heroes (don't blame me for playing it, I was young and foolish...).

Such wisdom. Agreed!

I hate the guy in Gears of War, Marcus, why are his supporting cast so much cooler than him and why did they kill of Kim at the earliest opportunity for a character less tollerable than Marcus?

Also Anakin Skywalker in any of the Star Wars games about episode 2 or 3.

Racing games sometimes have annoying characters. Hi I'm Daisy! Hi I'm Daisy! Hi I'm Daisy!

The Secret Apprentice in The Force unleashed.

I still felt kind of bad when he died, however.

Hate... Squall... so much. I don't particularly like any of the FF protagonists, but Squall is probably the worst one. I have nothing against having an emo character in a game, since it could make for an interesting experience, but in an RPG you should be able to choose what your character is like: they shouldn't have to be emo. Especially with Squall, who spends pretty much all of the game whining and/or brooding.

Oblivion had a character? I suppose you could sort of project yourself into it, Gordon Freeman-style, but the only real choice you had was whether you were a really nice guy or a complete bastard. It's not as if the character had any personality or anything.

I didn't like any of the Gears characters. Marcus is an idiot, Dom is a bigger idiot, Baird is irritating and has a terrible voice actor, and the less said about Cole Train the better. God, I hated him. He was so obviously being groomed to be a fan favourite, which really irritated me because he was horrible! If you're going to create a character specifically so that people will like them, you can at least have the decency to do it well (see Minsc and HK-47). I'm not sure that Epic are able to create likeable characters.

Squall from FFVIII and Zidane from FFIX.

Geez, Henry from Silent Hill 4. He was so, so boring.

I forgot to mention Ayumi, from X-Blades. For some reason, I just can't like her. Maybe it's her voice...and attitude...and lack of brain. Nah, she's just wearing too much.

I dunno, I reckon he was better in the second one. Something about the drunken, unshaven, hobo just screams "BADASS" to me.

Kane and/or Lynch. Take your pick. And that prick Baldur from Too Human. And Tidus. And Vaan.

HK-47 was quite possibly the best character in KOTOR. Hands down. Jolee was second for being the absolute stereotype of old men.
