[Endocrom]

Eli Scrubs from Timesplitters: Future Perfect. Who wouldn't want to be named after a sentient cactus with robotic legs?

But seriously, I knew a guy that legally changed his name to Remy LeBeau (as in, Gambit). He's a unique individual.

 

[ajb924]

Sho Minamoto, why because not onl is he the most badass game charecter alive, he also has the most badass quotes ever

 

[Arcyde]

Kratos

Spoiler

 

[RagnorakTres]

1) Zack Fair. It sounds like a real name if you aren't familiar with the FFVII canon, right?
2) Three Dog. Just because.

If I weren't restricted to gaming, it'd be Ian Malcolm. Velociraptors run in fear from the sound of my footsteps. Or is that the other way around...

 

[Mykonos]

Shaquille O'neal

:3

 

[CheeseSandwichCake]

Gordon Freemon. Do I even need a reason?

dammit, Agreed

Barney Calhoun

A name as awesome if not MORE awesome than Gordon Freeman.

 

[Daveman]

Jack Carver, the in your face hawaian t shirt salesman.

 

[Woem]

The Nameless One.

 

[RandomWords]

batman, so then I would have an excuse for wearing a cape and breaking people's necks. (there are videogames about him so it counts as far as I am concerned)

 

[Jandau]

*points to his avatar*

Guess!

 

[Fenreil]

I don't really know. Maybe Jack Ryan, or Lloyd Irving/Aurion.

If I was a girl, however, I'd definitely want Eleanor Lamb.

 

[arsenicCatnip]

How about a character from a webcomic about a game instead?

I'd love to be Kanaya Maryam or Nepeta Leijon from MS Paint Adventures.

 

[Haydyn]

Alistair

 

[Kenko]

Raziel
Legacy of Kain is one of the best series ever on the PS1

And I would easily go for Kain

 

[Evilsanta]

Gordon Freeman. You need a reason?

And i guess i already been ninja'd. Damn ninjas everywhere.

 

[Sargey]

I used to always want to be called Marcus Foenix/Phoenix, and seeing as my first name IS Marcus, it wasn't too much of a stretch of the imagination.

I actually wanted that name before Gears of War came out, so when I first played that...was kind of cool to see that

 

[Miumaru]

Indoril Nerevar. Cause, as Arnold says...Ill be back....maybe as a female lizard person!

Guess!

Mr Drooly face?
