| selnor said: I mean generic. Max Payne, any GTA character, Kane and Lynch etc. Any game that just has a normal human person is hard to portray as an icon. Especially in a world where the real icons are eiither faceless ( Masterchief ) or catooned up. For example Link although a person dresses radically different than jeans and tshirt. Or suit. Or jacket. Link looks iconic. Marcus Phonenix is a bit different. Because the character stands out. Muscle overload. Thick armour, etc. Its alot more memorable and iconic. I never remember characters that are plain after finising the game unitl the neext title is announced unless the character looked radically different from the guy next door. |
You're telling me this guy isn't wasn't an icon back in the day?

I can guaranteed you that a relatively large amount of people would have recognized him. Even if they couldn't draw him
