I've been playing Assassin's Creed and I forgot to mention Ezio Auditore. One of the best characters of all-time.

It's a shame Assassin's Creed protagonists haven't been as good since. Sure some of them have their moments, but they lack the history, prestige and depth of Ezio. We got to see him as a cocky 17 year old chasing tail in 1400s Florence to eventually grow and die as a highly skilled, hardened assassin.

 

I doubt the series will ever have anyone like him again.

In no particular order:

 

Salvatore Leone - GTA III, San Andreas (especially here) & Liberty City Stories

Tommy Vercetti - GTA Vice City

Mike Toreno - GTA San Andreas

Armando Mendez - GTA Vice City Stories

Niko Bellic - GTA IV

Dimitri Rascalov - GTA IV

Johnny Klebitz - GTA IV (TLAD)

Billy Grey - GTA IV (TLAD)

Raul Menendez - Call of Duty: Black Ops II

 

But if I had to pick one, it'd be either Niko Bellic or Raul Menendez.

Yeah, the later characters don't quite have the same type of charisma and personality as Ezio. I love the way he carries himself, you just feel like a badass when you're playing as him. I've been playing the Ezio Collection recently and been finding the games pretty immersive mainly due to his character and how involved I get.

Doom Guy.

Doesn't need words.  Doesn't need a special backstory (though he has a pretty good one now).  Just shotgun, infinite sprinting, and lots and lots of demons to slay.

I would normally say Niko Bellic but then I got introduced to Lincoln Clay. Probably the best protagonist in the entire genre for me so far.

Uncle Sikee Atric

The best 'silent' protagonist of all time changed only a few years ago for me....

Anyone who plays the game to a conclusion gets it too, to the point I can tell which reviewers have played the story and which have not, due to the comparisons they draw in their reviews.

 

But everyone all agrees, Lea is phoenomial as a character.

Ezio Auditore is awsome too, and so are many characters from the telltale TWD games, but if i ever wanted a videogame of a videogame character, or even a novel, it would be this character right here.

Female Moonraker Elite Goldeneye 007 for the N64, At the beginning of its history, while everyone was clamoring for Oddjob, Id go all the way to the end of the full character list for the female Moonraker Elite because she was just as short as Oddjob. Of course within a week all my friends wised up and realized Oddjob wasnt where it was all at.
