We all know that the GC has Mario and Playstation has Lara Croft. The Xbox has some 'sort-of' trademark characters, such as Master Chief, Sam Fisher and Blinx.
So, opinions please.

Sam fisher was only for the Xbox originally, and lara croft, isn't she on PC too? And mario, isn't he on PC also (with ROMs :D).
Lara Croft is sooooo PS1.
Anyways, Trademark Characters just tie a system down, and is what has hassled Nintendo...
But really, does the Xbox need a trademark character?
I know Shigsy Miyamoto. However the one that I know is a different one.
