A recent survey conducted by Famitsu magazine asked its readers to rank their favorite video game characters. The results were revealed in this week's issue, and naturally, Rockman, amidst plenty of iconic heroes and villains, managed to make the cut. The blue bomber placed 22nd in the rankings, just behind Final Fantasy VII's Sephiroth and ahead of Devil May Cry's Dante. Solid Snake of Metal Gear Solid fame trumped all at number one. Notably, Rockman managed to outrank numerous other famed Capcom characters like Ryu (Street Fighter) and Leon S. Kennedy (Resident Evil) who placed 30th and 31st.
You can check out the the full rankings and see where your favorites placed at 1UP.
I can not believe why people prefer luigi the loser over megaman.
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised that megaman is better than Ryu from street fighter, but how is it that luigi is better than megaman?!?
ReplyDeleteKirby and Chocobo's, but no Zero...that ain't even right.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous #2: Because he's so pansyish that it's hilarious. *points to M&L series* Not to mention that being Mario's wingman has some credit attached.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous #3: Chocobo, on the other hand, baffles me. >_>
Something is wrong here.
ReplyDeleteThat listing is horrible saturated with Final Fantasy characters and characters which dont mean a thing to most people, lol. Only a few are good in my eyes.
ReplyDeleteIt's a stupid Top 50 with bad caracters...Rockman must be in a top 10! The third serie with Mario and Sonic...Stupid TOP 50 again!
ReplyDeleteReally?...Professor Layton? That guy is a douche.
ReplyDeleteI've stopped paying attention to famitsu. Look at how many perfect 40s they've been dishing out lately. They're no longer credible, given how they've sold out.
ReplyDelete^ Yes, and not to mention the fact that they've come up with video game rumors that were completely bogus. For example, ever since 2005, they've been saying that a new Donkey Kong platformer for the Wii was going to appear at E3, and that still hasn't happened yet. They also said that Paper Mario was getting ported to the DS, and that never happened, either. I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who doesn't like Famitsu.
ReplyDeleteWow that list is ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteSnake before Mario?
Link on 6th?
Kirby on 12th?
Yuna and Tidus before Sephiroth and Mega Man?
I wonder what would happen if Mega Man and Kirby obtained the power of each other?
ReplyDeleteMega Man: You obtained a great hunger and can eat enemies to obtain their powers (similar to Zero Knuckle)! Mega Man got a Met's Helmet!
Kirby: You copied the ability to copy bosses! Whispy Kirby, Dyna Kirby, Meta Kirby and King Kirby!
Seeing how rigged this list makes me hate Famitsu even more, you really can't trust them anymore.
