About Me
Much to my family's disappointment after I got my Psych degree I moved into journalism. At the moment I do games and anime reviews for a free magazine in Sydney which no one reads. I also work casually as a research assistant but that isn't interesting.
I've been gaming since I was a wee lad and as I recall the first console I had was the Atari 2600. Pitfall 2 on the C64 amazed me and at the time I thought it was the deepest games would ever get.

I'm a big SRPG/RPG fan but I also have an itchy trigger finger so FPSes are on the cards to.
I have a weak spot for survival horror but I suck at them. The newer survival horror action games (RE4) are right up my alley.
Also big fan of Clover studios and Capcom in general.

Right now I've got a 360, Ps2, Saturn, cube(for imports) and Wii set up and I've also got a PSP & DS.

8. Best
Captain Blue (Viewtiful Joe)



Viewtiful Joe is one of those series that I could pretty much take any of the characters in the game and put it one this list. Captain Blue gets the kudos though because he is not only cool, he is fat too. Love the belly button, I always thought outies were gross.

An overweight ex Superhero, Captain Blue both guides and sabotages Joe as he progresses through the land of the movies. If you beat Very Very Hard mode (after a year of trying every day I just barely beat Very Hard Mode) you get to play as him. Something for me to aspire to.

8. Worst
Cream the Rabbit (Sonic Series)



First of all if you haven't worked it out by now this list is more about me bagging on crap characters than about me praising good ones. Anyway, Cream the Rabbit is neither the worst character in the sonic series (which says a lot) or the first bad character to be introduced into the series. Cream gets on this list however because she marks the time when the character of Sonic went from being 'I'll blitz past Eggman at mach speed' cool to 'Let's hold hands and cuddle after you jizz in my eye' cool .
Sonic Heroes made everyone lame, Tails got a VA done by a three year old (and almost made this list because of it), Knuckles got bent over and ploughed by a 39 year old WoW addict who is now doing time and a bunch of other characters... became crap.
But seriously, Cream the Rabbit? Unless you are thinking of making the character a hot ass stripper hussie like this:



Then I don't want to know about it.

Incidentally, the game she first was in Sonic Advance was actually not that bad, I still hate her design though. Remember when Knuckles first came on the scene. Friggin awesome... now look what has become of him.

Let's take a look see at some of the other really really really shit (really) characters that have made their way into the series.

Fang the Sniper:



Marine the (Australian Slang talking) raccoon.



Jet the Hawk


Do I really need to say anything?

There are 30 main characters if you don't count the extras.

The Sonic universe is practically bursting at the seams these days :P

"Let's hold hands and cuddle after you jizz in my eye' cool ."

I don't know if I count that as a type of "cool".
