Many, but Mario in particular

Just the memories - he's been there since I started to game, and the games are just so refreshing. If every game had the effort Maro games have, EA would be dead.
> 5) Do they have anything you would describe as flaws?
No, None. He is flawless, and always drags you back for more

Only one way - Bringing out Super Mario RPG in the UK - If there is one thing Mario needs, it is more games

I'd like an aging 40 year old - I like a bit of Comedy in my games, and have a fat, old, drunk man running aimlessly around a scree would be great humour.

He's a Italian plumber, who’s fat. And he has a comical moustache. And he feasts on magical mushrooms.
> 5) Do they have anything you would describe as flaws?
Too few razors

More razors

Possibly a big dinosaur called Dave, who talked to me and had the I.Q 0f 6000. Who smoked a pipe. Filled with weed.

Mario, because he's had such an effect of gaming.
The Tank, because it was one of the first VCS games I was addicted to.

None of the others have flaws.

Spinal and Fulgore were from Killer instinct.
Spinal was the Skeleton (my personal fave character), and Fulgore was some kind of robot thing allegedly build by the evil corporation (I forget what they were called).

Writing this before I see anyone els's replies, so I wonn't have any ideas put in my head.
1) Name
Andrew Kerrison.
2) Age
19
3) Who are you gaming heroes?
Dynamite Headdy, KLP-2 (from Quazatron), Blob (from 'A Boy and his blob').
4) What is special about them?
Dynamite Headdy had interchangable heads for different purposes, eg hammer headdy, sparky headdy, spiky headyy, etc. He could detach his head from his body at will, for a second or so. Who needs to punch someone when you can headbutt them from twice the distance?
KLP-2 was the droid from Quazatron. He had the ability to 'grapple' with other droids (a little mini game onvolving an interesting way or routing circuits) and if successfull, nicking all their parts. Great fun.
Blob turned into objects when he was fed jellybeans. That's fairly special.
5) Do they have anything you would describe as flaws?
Dynamite Headdy was flawless.
KLP-2 wasn't very quick, couldn't jump, and frequently burnt out his power circuits when using bits from other droids.
Blob had a tendancy to miss the jellybeans thrown at him, or run too far when following you, (i.e, straight off ledges) and generally manage to be just in the wrong place.
6) How could they be improved?
Dynamite Headdy could have had a few more heads, obviously. Some way to climb things might be useful, too.
KLP-2 needs a few more interesting bits of equipement. Energy packs, different grapple techniques, something like that.
Blob needs a brain.
7) Describe your ultimate gaming hero (not an existing hero)
You might notice from the above choices, I like a character who can evolve or change in some way. Adapting to the surroundings, as it were. My ultimate gaming hero would therefore be some character who outwits opponents by changing himself or the environment around him. He doesn't have to be believable, or realistic, and in fact should not be. Can't really be mnore specific than that, I'm afraid...
