Freeman needs our help again!

It worked though :) 59% in favour of the free man now.

Easy win for Gordon in the final if they do that again.

It is ridiculous any of the current four being there though. I'd much prefer to see Nameless One, JC Denton and even Guybrush Threepwood there.

I don't think it's lame at all - Half Life 2 basically launched Steam from obscurity and paved the way for it to be what it is today - padding a meaningless online poll is the least it can do! The actual saddest thing is seeing the Gamespot forum for this competition - I swear, people are on the verge of murder because their pixels aren't winning!

This isn't about hl2 though, its about the characters in the games. People are voting for the game instead of the hero. Also, the entire pc community are voting for Freeman to stick it to the "console kiddies." I would honesty put the hl games at the top of the greatest games ever made, but that has nothing to do with the fact that Freeman is init.

I don't know why I care so much as gamespot are useless as a game site now a days, its just dumb that Freeman has got so far. He is nothing more than a glorified doom guy.

Now only if Nintendo had a pop up asking to vote for link when you turned on your Wii.

Nintendo should just post it on their own open forum like Valve to communicate with their massive close nit community.

Oh wait... Nintendo don't have one.

I can't believe Freeman has got so far, he possibly one of the worst characters out there. There is nothing interesting about him as an actual game character. Same goes for Link, Mario and Samus.

This is like claiming shows like X-Factor and Pop idle are ranked by talent. It's popularity.

Freeman is more popular than the characters he's beaten, the competition is nothing to do with his character, and you're fooling yourself if you think it is. Would he be there if Half-life wasn't so awesome? Of course he wouldn't! :p

Mario is rubbish, not only does he jump on things for a living but in all the decades of chasing after that bloody princess not ONCE has he smashed her royal pasty.

Either she's an ice hearted ungrateful cow, or hes a raging queer.

A star of some seriousely over rated games (besides the hand held ones) with a grotesque following of young teenage girls.

The games go as follows.

Step 1 - Starting village/island, run around being lame for 10 minutes with your sister/mother/aunt or whatever.

Step 2 - Some bad stuff happens, loved one gets taken away.

Step 3 - Gain a sword of some description, usualy crap.

Step 4 - Try to rescue them.

Step 4 - Fail.

step 5 - Gain a silly green dress and discover you are "TEH CHOZEN ONE!".

Step 6 - Go to a dungeon.

Step 7 - Meat Princess Zelda or similar female lead, spends the game being kidnapped, cross dressing or being an 'orrible cow.

Step 8 - Repeat step 6 for about 12 hours gaining the same weapons EVERY GOD DAMN GAME.

Step 9 - Get "TEH MASTER SWORD!"

Step 10 - Fight "TEH BAD GUY!", 9/10 times this will be Ganondorf.

Step 11 - End game with seriousely dissapointing cinematic in which the hero gets absolutely bugger all in return for saving the entire world. Again.

Which is of course so different to:

Step 1 - Get dumped into gameworld

Step 2 - Get funneled around doing not a lot for 20 minutes

Step 3 - Get a crowbar and start fighting generic game baddies

Step 4 - Get some guns and carry on fighting generic game baddies

Step 5 - Do some physics puzzles

Step 6 - Carry on fighting generic game baddies

Step 7 - Reach climax of game and get removed from ending with no explanation.


Clearly sooooooooooo much better ;)
 
Which is of course why it is widely accepted as one of the better games released, ever :p

Just because you're upset that Freeman needed daddy to get everyone to come and vote for him to win ;)

My opinion, I am entitled to it, if you feel the need to defend your favorite game because someone else doesn't like it, feel free :rolleyes:

It's a competition between video game characters, a rather large competition at that, whats wrong with Valve wanting theirs to win?
