Gone Gonzo  Posts: 2956 Joined: 10 Aug 2008   | Niko was the only one with an interesting backstory. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 2256 Joined: 10 Mar 2009    | Nico. Mainly for his funny accent and good backstory. |
Muckraker  Posts: 330 Joined: 9 Aug 2008   | I have to agree with these people. Unlike the other guys who simply took it upon themself to thrust into a life full of crime and murder, Niko was forced to go to Liberty City, forced to steal, kill and lead a life of crime, it simply wasn't his fault. |
Beat Writer  Posts: 163 Joined: 30 Mar 2009    | Toni form Liberty City stories. Niko was quite cool but I never understood all the love for Tommy. |
Copy Clerk  Posts: 68 Joined: 26 Jun 2009  | CJ for me. Just because that game is so absurd. Also, since I have yet to play GTAIV.... sadly. |
Pulitzer Laureate  Posts: 997 Joined: 27 Mar 2009     | I didn't really like the games but, I do like Brucie. He's an odd character. |

Muckraker  Posts: 247 Joined: 12 Aug 2008  | Tommy, he's got a lot more personality than Niko, plus Niko always whines about killing people' how he is forced to do it but hates it and his trouble past, blah blah blah. Generally when I am controlling him he is all about the mindless violence, it just doesn't work. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1811 Joined: 20 Aug 2008   | Tommy, for me. I liked Niko, but not as much as I liked Tommy, and I didn't empathise with CJ at all. |
On the Record  Posts: 5153 Joined: 2 Feb 2009   | Tommy Vercetti is voiced by Ray Liotta there for, he is the best one. Vice City also has Dennis Hopper and Burt Reynolds doing voice. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1865 Joined: 4 Oct 2007 | Niko has a better history and I found myself really feeling for some things he had to do. |
Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 648 Joined: 4 Mar 2009   | tommy was cool , cj was too getto gang banger and niko was a bit to foreign but then there's claude he kept his mouth shut and just did his job all other characters in the gta series don't matter as for lost and dammed i haven't played it yet |
Pulitzer Laureate  Posts: 753 Joined: 9 Jun 2009  | i like Claude! i mean he had no personality at all and he was just a labrador really, but his story was the best. then tommy vercetti because he was just bad ass. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 3617 Joined: 7 Aug 2008 | Tommy was easily the best. Then joint between Claude and CJ (all about the customization). Frankly Niko just annoyed me, and was one of the main factors that lead me to dislike the game. |
Press Junketeer  Posts: 498 Joined: 5 Oct 2008 | Tommy all the way. Ahh, I remember being in a mission hosing down a mall with minigun fire while Ray freakin' Liotta yells "I'm Tommy Vercetti, remember the name! I run this town! ME!". What a legend. |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 4760 Joined: 17 Mar 2009 | Niko. Interesting backstory and good lines (and accent) made for a very memorable character. |

I recently revisited GTA 4 LaTD, it has given me cause to reflect on past and present player characters given to us. My main focus will be on their 'flagship' games, but there is the other catagory for all the Juan's and Mutes. ;)
What is the rationale for the appeal in your choice? Personally, I feel Niko was their best developed character, because if nothing else, I found myself really getting into his mindset as presented - approaching the game with a 'what would Niko do?' attitude to the sandbox experience.
