Well Half Life games sales are very low relative to Mario's.

Half Life: http://www.vgchartz.com/games/index.php?name=half+life
Mario: http://www.vgchartz.com/games/index.php?name=Mario

what do sales have to do with the character?

I meant to say, this many people know Mario vs this many people knowing Gordon Freeman firsthand, but Mario lost, thats a huge number difference. Mario is just some cheerful guy that always wants to save his princess. I have not played half life, so I don't know Gordon. I never played any Mario game for more than an hour either, just Mario is infinitely more known than Gordon Freeman, I think most people voted Freeman because he looks deeper and cooler, not because they know him.
