Top 5 Best Supporting Characters

Silver Mirror | August 29, 2007 | News | PC Playstation 3 Misc 
Whether there giving you cover fire, bossing you around over the com or just being a smartass, supporting characters are the backbone of any good game.

5. Cortana from the Halo series

4. Tails from Sonic series

3. Yoshi from Mario series

2. HK-47 from The Knights of the Old Republic

1. Barney Calhoun from the Half Life series
We’ve all played a game where someone other than the main character has a huge role in the game, usually an unsung role. The problem is that these characters are absolutely vital to not only the enjoyment of the game but in pushing the story further along and quite often even saving the main character a time or two. Well it's time these silent saviors get recognized, so here's the top 5 best supporting characters. They were picked based on personality, in-game presence, and over-all ability to sway the outcome of the game.

    No Daxter? No Clank? What is this crap? Yoshi is a good choice though.

    There would have been riots with Yoshi and Tails.

    Cortana, Tails and Yoshi I know, who are the others though.

    Peppy Hare would have been nice. He has always backed up the McCloud family and has been through so much.
