Coffee Talk #95: What Videogame Character Do You Want to Be?

Is there a videogame character you wish you were more like? It sounds like a silly question, but there are loads of videogame characters that have laudable traits. It’s not hard to find a character that’s heroic, clever, wise, witty, or caring. If you’re more devil than angel, it’s easy to find characters that are devious, diabolical, and cruel.

Welcome to Coffee Talk! Let’s start off the day by discussing whatever is on your (nerd chic) mind. Every morning I’ll kick off a discussion and I’m counting on you to participate in it. If you’re not feelin’ my topic, feel free to start a chat with your fellow readers and see where it takes you. Whether you’re talking about videogames, Americans getting into curling to be contrary, the latest snow storm on the east coast, or Palm taking a beating, Coffee Talk is the place to do it.

Is there a videogame character you wish you were more like? It sounds like a silly question,  but there are loads of videogame characters that have laudable traits. It’s not hard to find a character that’s heroic, clever, wise, witty, or caring. If you’re more devil than angel, it’s easy to find characters that are devious, diabolical, and cruel.

As for me, I’m going to go with Pokemon’s Ash Ketchum. I’m certain that I’m being influenced by GameStop’s upcoming Pokemon Jirachi promotion, but I think he’s a great pick. He’s kind, caring, and determined. I also miss viewing the world through innocent eyes. Ash accomplishes his goals as a Pokemon trainer while still being a good person and seeing things with child-like wonder. Maybe I’m just feeling tired and jaded this week, but I want to be more like Ash.

So play this game with me (please). I’d love to know what videogame character you’d like to be more like. I’m just hoping none of you pick Kratos.

  2. Shepard from Mass Effect. I love sci-fi and RPG's, so that game pretty much hits my sweet spot to begin with. Add in that it's excellent, and you've got me hooked.

    Besides, how awesome would it be to travel around space?!? Pretty freaking awesome, I say!

  3. i wouldnt mind being joe mauer….

    id like to be me, but id like to have the mortal kombat skills of scorpion

    how awesome would it be to shoot spears?

  4. Master Chief would be cool.

    My IK barb from D2 would be neat.

    Vanzant, my Naxx 25 geared Ret Pally would be awesome. Armageddon has to be as cool as Divine Intervention. ( where has Larcenous been?)

    Drake

    have to go with ret pally though. Geared the F out, rich, epic flyer, divine magic.

  7. Ryu Hyabusa- Not only would I have freaking sweet ninja skills( nunchaku skills, Scythe skill, Bow skills ), But every check in the world would be totally hot and half-naked.

  11. I started downloading the God of War 3 demo at about 1 today. I got home at 5 and it had stopped at 4:30….at 75%….and it was corrupt. Worst of all, the PS3 had locked up.

    No more demos for me. Only playing games online.

  13. I also would choose ash ketchum, my secondary choice would be link from the legend of Zelda. I would love to experience either of those worlds through their eyes…seeing it all eighths sense of innocence and adventure combined.

  15. @ Bsukenyan;

    Seeing the world through Ash Ketchum's eyes would probably burn your retinas and give you seizures.
