Video games immerse us in worlds beyond our own, letting us encounter sights and sounds beyond our imaginations. But no matter the scenery, what would these worlds be without the characters we have fought alongside and grown emotionally attached to over the past eight years? With the impending release of the PlayStation 4, today is the last day in which we here at Kotaku will look back and explore the heroes (and zeroes) of gaming’s seventh console generation. But instead of me telling you who the greatest characters of the generation are, let’s all contribute and make a master list together. After all, there are many great characters out there and no doubt they have touched us all in different ways.cnx.cmd.push(function(){cnx({"playerId":"e3616d04-4972-4839-a63a-c6975e2e9731","settings":{"advertising":{"macros":{"AD_UNIT":"/23178111854/od.kotaku.com/article","CHILD_UNIT":"article","POST_ID":"1464171174","POST_TYPE":"post","CHANNEL":"kotaku-east","SECTION":"","SUBSECTION":"","CATEGORIES":"kotaku-east","TAGS":"nintendo,playstation","NOP":"0"},"timeBeforeFirstAd":0}}}).render("cnx-player-main")}); Guidelines To keep this list easy to read and enjoy, let’s all follow these rules. 1) Home console game characters only: Yes, I know.

So please put in a bold **Spoilers** tag or the like before your comment as a warning to the uninitiated. 5) Don’t write non-entry comments on this post: Instead, comment on others’ entries, if u31 เข้าสู่ระบบ you’ve got something to say about them. 6) Feel free to enter more than one character!
