A video game character is a fictional character appearing in a video game or computer game. In the early days of gaming, most characters were little more than generic figures with little in the way of personality, depth, or likeablity. The first game character to gain massive popularity was Mario in the 1980s. With Mario began the concept of the "game mascot", the idea that a character could become representative of a game company while being marketable to a wide audience. In the years since, many game characters have become bona-fide pop-culture phenomena. Some of the most popular ones are: * Master Chief (Halo) (''Halo'' series) * Super Mario (''Super Mario'' series, Nintendo's company mascot) * Luigi (Nintendo character) (''Super Mario'' series) * Kirby (''Kirby'' series) * Yoshi (''Super Mario'' series) * Samus Aran (''Metroid'' series) * Sonic the Hedgehog (''Sonic'' series, Sega's current company mascot) * Link (Legend of Zelda) (''Zelda'' series) * Lara Croft (''Tomb Raider'' series) * Erdrick (''Dragon Quest'' series) * Christie Monteiro, Ling Xiaoyu, et al. (''Tekken'' series) * Cloud Strife (''Final Fantasy'' series) * Tifa Lockheart (''Final Fantasy'' series) * Yuna (''Final Fantasy'' series) * Marth (''Fire Emblem'' series) * Roy_(Fire_Emblem) (''Fire Emblem'' series) * Lyndis (''Fire Emblem'' series) * Mega Man (character) (''Mega Man'' series) * Solid Snake (''Metal Gear'' series) * Fox McCloud (''Star Fox'' series) * Falco Lombardi (''Star Fox'' series) * Crash Bandicoot (''Crash Bandicoot'' series, Sony's former company mascot) * Terry Bogard (''Fatal Fury'' and ''King of Fighters'' series) * Pikachu (''Pokémon'' series) * Wario (''Super Mario'' series, ''Wario'' series) * Gordon Freeman (''Half-Life'' series) * Bob Newbie (''The Sims'' series) * Claude Speed (''Grand Theft Auto'' series) * Max Payne (''Max Payne'' series) * Conker (''Conker''series) * Banjo Bear (''Banjo'' series) * Spyro (''Spyro the Dragon'' series) * Rayman (''Rayman'' series) * Pac-Man (''Pac-Man'' series) * Ratchet and Clank (''Ratchet and Clank'' series) * Jak and Daxter (''Jak and Daxter'' series) * Joanna Dark (''Perfect Dark'' series) * Viewtiful Joe (''Viewtiful Joe'' series) * Leon Kennedy,Jill Valentine,et al.
