Due to the fact that video game characters are designed to appeal to the eye and the heart (at least thats what they hope) its not at all weird to fancy a game character. To want to do things with it that you can only do with a human being is wandering off into unknown territory.
I myself have (very little) crushes on some VG characters but due to the fact that I realize I am in reality, it never crosses my mind to do more than look at it like eye candy (which it is, don't deny it). If a VG character looks attractive, its because the guys who designed the game thought of what they would find attractive and made a character out of it. Then gave them a gun and/or some uber mcguffin for fun.

No not at all, provided you keep it in prospective and don't let it detriment you real life relationships.
Currently I have the biggest video game crush on ether Starkiller from The Force Unleashed II, Jackie from The Darkness, or Ezio/Desmond in Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. Cole from inFAMOUS 2 as well. Plus I'm sure every girl loves Nathan Drake so I'm not going to say him lol.

Short answer is no. It's no different then in movies/books/etc really. When it stops being a fantasy is when there might be a problem.
We've all been there kid.
Why I remember when I was a lad eagerly pumping coin after coin into Street Fighter just to watch Chun Li smash things. Good times.

Aeris from FF7
Alicia Melchiott from Valkyria Chronicles
Tali and FemShep from Mass Effect series.
Bayonetta from Bayonetta
Lulu from FFX.
Eva from Metal Gear Solid 3.
Somebody stop me!!
In all seriousness, yes it is weird. But people seem to do the same with characters from books as well.

I honestly think the op is natural human behavior. Even if there is no real counter-part to compare the digital model with, it's what they represent that make an attractive combination of traits to you. Part of this is escapist (not the website) fantasizing, since 'highly successful mass-murderer' isn't typically a desired trait, but by allowing yourself to think in game-world terms, real life inhibitions like this don't get taken into account.
Something fun to explore might be some nerdy cosplay love (aka dress-up role-play) with a significant other. My geek crush is Wonder Woman, and I have. ^^

When they're designed to be, it's completely normal (*cough* Rebecca Change *cough*)
When they aren't, it can be disturbing (don't look up rule 34 on Fallout 3, if you do I accept no responsibility at all and you must sign on this line . . . . . . . . . .)
