Mine is Alyx Vance, because she's not a total fuckup.

Also, Cortana.

Mine would have to be a tie between Cortana and Wheatley from Portal 2.

I really liked my dog/cat in Torchlight. It was so refreshing to be able to send them to do my shopping.

Can't lie, I hate Cortana. I don't know why, she just annoys the hell out of me.

This is a weird one, but your horse in Shadow of the Colossus. Your only friend in the world. A lot like real life really.

:'(

I kid. But yeah that's my choice.

Well I feel that I love all the sidekicks in the games I have played but my favorite sidekick of a game I have played this year has to be Ishi from Bulletstorm the conversations between him and Greyson are very funny.

Wrex from Mass Effect.

That is all kinds of outstanding.

This guy: Daxter

I liked his comic relief in Jak and Daxter.

Man, the banter in Bulletstorm is some of the best of the past 2 years. Sure it's juvenile most of the time (it basically replaces the word "god" or "christ" with the word "dick" (which is frickin' awesomely hilarious if you think about it)), but it's also really, really good at characterizing and emphasizing the personalities of each person. Say what you want about stereotypes or "archetypal one-dimensional" characters, but they are undeniably entertaining.

^ Agreed. One of my favorite moments in Bulletstorm (this is paraphrased):

Gray, to Serrano: Fuck you, I'll fucking kill you, raaaaaah guns and testosterone

Rell: Whoa! That is a giant fucking "group decision" you just made for us!

One of the few moments in games I actually "lol"d. Yeah it's immature but it's clever too.

My favourite part was when the girl character said, "Come any closer and I will kill your dick."

I found that to be hilarious.

PatrickLindsey

Y'know what? Fuck it, Ima go play Bulletstorm RIGHT NOW.

FailboatSkipper

'What the DICK?'

MIKEOFPAIN

I think my favorite was "I named him Waggleton P. Tallylicker, but I never got the chance to tell him. He will be remembered."

Probably only because the childish part of me really finds Tallylicker as very funny

I'm replaying the Mass Effect games, and I am reminded of how much I freaking love Garrus. I like Wrex, but Garrus is my buddy. I'd do anything for that guy.

Plus, in my game Wrex ain't around no more...

Nuuuuuuu! I shed a tear for every Wrex that dies.

Garrus is my FemShep's main squeeze now though, definitely my second favourite Mass Effect character.

I was half-tempted to reload a save and make it so he lives, but I kind of like the idea of having to deal with my choices in Mass Effect. The fact that I screwed up and it cost Wrex his life, I find, speaks to all my subsequent choices.

Sorry for sounding like a pretentious wank. :)

I totally understand the feeling of wanting to take responsibility in games and live with your mistakes.

Once, I feel asleep while my Chikorita was evolving and forgot to cancel her evolution, felt guilty ever since. I still have a sad level 16 Bayleef in storage.

Mike_Lemcke

PatrickLindsey

Mike_Lemcke

so it would seem my choices are some throwbacks - Yoshi and all his amazing support in super mario world and for some reason i liked robo from chrono trigger the most even though he was more a team member than sidekick. but favorite of all times would probably be kain in FF2. i will forever want to be a dragoon
