Rookie
Due to all the positive feedback and success of the top 100 video games of all time I've decided to try something that hasn't been done before: The top 100 Heroes and 100 Villains in video games!

Nominations are open for 10 days, December 5th - December 15th. Then the countdown will begin!

Like last time, we'll need as much participation as possible to make it a fair and even list. So let's see if we can get as many people at GR to fill in the list below :D



Heroes
Select your 3 favorite Heroes from each genre. You can pick playable or non-playable characters. Some games fall into different genres and if that's the case, use your own judgement for which character falls under which genre. Please do not nominate a character twice in this section and do not nominate a character based on a real person (ie Tony Hawk). Also, please name the game the character is from since I might not know who you're nominating.

Ghost, I love the way you have these set up...

Are these just nominations, and we'll have a Showdown tourney, or is this the final votes to be scored just like your last one?
 
They will be scored and counted down like the last one.

And forgive my crappy banner, I'm an armature when it comes to that stuff, lol.

Dont know if Meta Ridley and Ridley should be classed as different villains? But I have them both in anyway. If you need another instead of Ridley just let me know.
 
If you can think of another person to replace it, I'd appreciate it. You can keep it as is, but it's best to not add the same person (ie Gannon and Gannondorf), it really is the same person just in another form.
