Have You Ever Felt Something For A Video Game Character?

Now, I'm not talkin' 'bout those weird Japanese games that I have to buy under the counter, those make me feel something. Three or four times actually. They really get a rise out of me, and at some point, I'll probably need a tissue.

No, I'm taking about something else: something probably almost completely stolen from The Escapist's forums - characters in video games that you like. Let's say... Gray Fox from Metal Gear Solid. Or Garret from the Thief series. Or Janos Audrin. Or James Sunderland. Characters that make you feel compassion, contempt, that make you laugh, or make you sad.

A good story pulls you in with an emotional connection. What emotions connected you to your favorite characters?
