Cameron’s 5 Favorite and Avoidable Optional Characters in Video Games

24
Posted October 2, 2010 by Cameron Jay Smith in Cjszero01, Retro, Wii

 

When games allow you to play as different characters it only makes sense that they should play differently from each other to help keep the gameplay high. Having said that I thought I would make a list of the 5 optional playable characters I find myself always choosing and the 5 I question why they were programmed to be playable. Remember this is a list based on games I play and own so if you see a someone on there you think should be on there just leave a comment about your list instead.

    Right here's a little test run of the comment box right after another test of the login. If this works after the comment I posted on youtube, the red mist will descend and in a blind rage I will… Run out of steam very quickly and mock you about the differences between biscuits, cookies and crackers in a way you won't be affected. :(

    I'm a rebel. :P

    To be quite honest,I didn`t really see anything wrong with this list. You could have maybe went into a bit more detail on some characters,but other than that,I found this list to be very good,and quite humorous. Sorry that you didn`t get the refrigerator magnet. XP

    Request: Out of curiosity,would you be able to do a review for Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards? I`m asking this because you haven`t did any Kirby reviews,and I would find it interesting to know your thoughts on 64,that is if you have played it. =)

    Big was a fantastic entrant, Mumbo Jumbo was hilarious.

    Toad and TT were a bit meh, so samey it hurt a little to see them on the list. I prefer Yoshi anyway and if I had to give a character in a Kart racing game a slot on this list. It would have to be Pura the tiger cub in Crash Team Racing, like Toad Pura is incredibly light and fast, but the main difference between Pura and the other characters is that choosing Pura makes the AI controlled racers less likely to target you than other players. I noticed this very quickly and it became a small part of why I almost always won.

    If you need an idea for a top ten/five I have one, Top 5 Favourite and Hated Donkey Kong Country Bosses.

    The person I play as the most.

    Marge from the Simpsons Game. As much as I hate her and play as Homer more, Homer’s the main character, and Marge can control an entire mob to do her bidding.

    The person I avoid.

    Luigi from Super Mario Galaxy. He looses air while swimming if he spins, and he doesn’t stop as quick as Mario does.
