Ah, Fei Fong Wong. I bet they got the name from the legendary Chinese folk hero Wong Fei Hung (or Hong, as it's spelled sometimes).

I don't know who any of those characters are (Weltall)... of course I also don't know who some of Hudson's characters are, too.
Hmm... some more.
Sarah Kerrigan
Thrall
Medivh
Zileas
Oh yeah, and of those Links... which is best. Hmm...
Oh, you're missing Link's Awakening's Link and AoL's Link and the Link in the original SSB... :)

Link doesn't exactly have much of a personality, what exactly makes his character so great? Is it just the look? The role he plays? If that were the case, I'd certainly have had Sephiroth on my list. Now he has the look, and is such a misunderstood character.. a tragic figure.
Quote:Give us names, please.
You didn't know who each of those characters were? OK, I'll write them out..
Cid Highwind (Final Fantasy VII)
Solid Snake (Metal Gear Series)
Vamp (Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty)
Vincent Valentine (Final Fantasy VII)
Grey Fox (Metal Gear Solid)
Jenova (Final Fantasy VII)
Aeris Gainsborough (Final Fantasy VII)
Vivi Ornitier (Final Fantasy IX)
Happy?

They're Silent Hill characters. He's obsessed. Ignore him. I know it's difficult.
My picks:
Auron (FFX)
Ganondorf
Mega Man
Gordon Freeman

Ahh, how could I forget Auron?

Well, first of all he's an elf, and everybody knows [or at least should know] that elves are supremely cool. Then, there's the look: the clothes, the sword, the shield, ect. Also, he's the legendary hero! Evil ungulfs the land and he rises up to kick some moster booty! And he rides a horse, sails on a boat, and occasionally sticks on a mask that turns him into one of three creatures. And don't even get me started about how cool he is in Soul Calibur 2!!

Which ones? Vincent and Auron maybe. But not really..

Only half of them are. Fool.
The other half are Xenogears :love: :love: :love:

My favorite... that's hard, but its probably either Link or The Nameless One...

Cloud, Sephiroth, etc.

Uhh..
I didn't nominate them.
Of course, having a brooding personality (though, there is MUCH more to their characters than just that) is much better than having no character at all..

The Nameless One's the best, if you're going by story and character depth, anyway...
