Has anyone else seen that terrible rip-off of New Super Mario Bros by PETA? It's called Super Chick Sisters and you could unlock Pamela Anderson to play as once you've beaten the game.

Also, Namco needs to understand that the only random weapon character who was ever cool was Edgemaster. I just don't CARE about all these other worthless guys. Olcadan, Charade... Why? Really, what's the point? There's already a thing the player can click to select a random character, so what is the point of the random character weapon guys?

At least Charade looks awesome, that, and there's a thrill about not knowing what weapon you'll be forced to use.

(Seriously, Charade's P2 form, AWESOME, IMO.)

As much as I love Mario, Yoshi and co., the worst for me unfortunately goes to unlockable Yoshi in Mario 64.

There were all these rumors at the time that Yoshi may have been a playable unlocked character, but nope, all you get for finding all 120 stars is a sleeping Yoshi on the top of the castle.

Give me a break.

Fox McCloud's father in Star Fox 64.
no powers, no cool ship, it's just Fox with sunglasses and the SAME script.
even when Fox hallucinates and sees him.

The reason for Owl-man, edge master etc. is because they are differently random each match. If you click random, you get a random character that doesn't change during the match. That is the difference, and the reason I didn't like IV, since there was no "Edge-Master" character.

If you mean expert mode, it's still Fox, just wearing sunglasses.
The actual campaign is harder and if you get to the last section of Venom (when James shows up) you should notice that Fox and James are wearing differently shaped sunglasses.

Or perhaps you should get on with having the life that I never did...

Sniper in BF2, it's slower, a hell lot less accurate and it has a smaller clip, it does do a little more damage though, but it still takes two shots on the body or one headshot to kill someone.

The worst unlockable character ever was Boo in SSB for Gamecube. Seriously, it takes forever to get him and then he doesn't even really work once you have him.

You got Boo in Super Smash Bros Melee? did i miss something?

Falco in SSBB, there really is NO reason for him to be in the game. He moves like Fox, attacks like Fox and has the same smash as Fox, he serves NO purpose. At least Wolf plays a little differently.

He's actually ranked #4 and fox somewhere in the 20s.

Can Pamela Anderson attack enemies with her huge knockers? I'm kidding I can't resist.

But seriously, what do they stomp on? Is Paris Hilton in the game, bowser? and Beyonce's like, the goomba?

Olimar from SSBB. i just don't like him. i not too bad with him, i can hold my own in a match but i dont think he a very character and his moves mostly suck

I just rolled on the floor when I saw him, but then realized how annoying he was to use. I don't think he is terrible, but really him over Dr.Mario is just unfair. He should have just stayed a trophy, besides has there been a Pikmen game for the Wii?

Haha, no, it's about these two chicks (as in chickens, not girls) saving other chicks from KFC, the 'Goombas' are little Colonel Sanders robots.

They only put Pamela Anderson in there because she's PETA's poster-girl.

The Escapist ran an article on it a while back.
Edit: and now PETA have made a new game...

Marth in SSBB...who cares? Also, why have three characters from Starfox with exactly the same final smash?

Also, did anybody ever use Ash, the incredibly gay (literally) unlockable boss in Bare Knuckle 3? I tried him once, and he sucked (No jump attack, his special attack was just his regular attack but in a flurry, no throws, couldn't use weapons...need I go on?).

I'm sorry? Are we in Japan. I don't think we're in Japan. Unless we're in Japan you will call it 'streets of rage 3' you god damn communist.

Uh... The Japanese aren't communist. They're a constitutional monarchy like Britain (though they use emperor instead of King/Queen)

Boss Nass in Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga
Mokujin in Tekken 5 - I hate "EdgeMaster" characters, I like to pick a character and use their weapon or fighting style for the match, not switch every round.
Finally, a geeky one, the Wolf and Flying Camera characters in Dragon Ball: Advanced Adventure, although that did have a massive amount of characters for a GBA game though, with like, everyone in the game playable. Seriously, even the random grunts were playable.

MewTwo in Smash Bros Melee. As far as I know he has no redeeming features. He's slow, imprecise, incredibly weak and the power of his attacks is only average at best. faster (starting) characters like Fox and Cpt Falcon can literally run rings around him/it.

Lukeje:

Elurindel:
Marth in SSBB...who cares? Also, why have three characters from Starfox with exactly the same final smash?

They don't have the same final smash, they just have very similar final smashes.

No, they're functionally identical. Why couldn't Wolf use his own Ship?

Because anybody who knows anything about the Starfox series knows that Wolf is a rival to the point of trying to prove that he can do anything better than Fox, including stealing plans for the Landmaster and making his own. This builds off in a similiar way to the whole "rivals get new ships since they must prove they have all the advantages" deal in SF64.

PedroSteckecilo:

Yes and no. Falco throws his deflector instead of having it generate a field around him. He also falls faster and is, allegedly, stronger. You are right in saying that Wolf plays much differently than either of them though.

Sorry but the expert mode unlock is not of James McCloud. it is merely Fox wearing his dad's aviators. This is easy to note given how his voice didn't suddenly change. And I have no idea what would make you think that it was his dad given how, with the same script and all as you said, he's still referred to as Fox.

I would like to second Gon and Doctor B from Tekken 3.. The doctor was completely pointless.. We just got him in order to complete the roster, and be able to show of all the characters to our friends

Chef of War from GoW. Its not that its that bad, its that its patently useless when compared to the Dairy Bastard costume. Double the value of magic orbsd versus unlimmited magic? Yeah, thats a real tough choice.

Oddjob.

Remember, the absolute #1 Goldeneye House Rule: "No Oddjob".

which neatly follows up to the absolute #1 Timesplitters rule: "No Monkeys"

agreed, chasing a tiny fast monkey around is a real fast way to fall out with someone

It's pretty damn funny when everyone's the monkey though.

Streets of Rage 3 was woefully inadequate compared to its japanese counterpart. I'll take japanese dialogue over terrible, plot holed-filled, inconsistent dialogue any day, so I'll call it what I like, you filthy facist.

Then you will call it 'the Japanese version of Streets of Rage 3'. I'll not have any communism in my forum.

I don't think you know how to use Jigglypuff. Seriously, check out some tournament videos on Youtube, Jigglypuff can be scary as fuck, especially if you know when to use down+B. Hint: it doesn't do "absolutely nothing".

Something's telling me this may develop into a rather intersting fight. I'll throw my hat into the the ring and claim 3/17th's of this forum as mine. Forum gold rush!

On topic: Half the characters in the lego star wars games, do we really need 7 variants of the standard battle droid? And why are there characters like Palpatine who have no abilities what-so-ever?

Han Solo in carbonite, Lego Star Wars II. (Through the 'extra toggle' unlock)
Not useful, but farking hilarious.

So I guess instead it would the womprat/mislabeled scurrier on Tatooine.
(Can run about 20% faster, at best. Cannot jump. Cannot use anything)

EDIT: So it seems on reading that the Lego games are spectacular in this respect, as well as anything involving Starfox. Interesting that series would repeat the same quirk that much.

Dr B from Tekken 3. Bastard to play with and somehow annoyingly difficult to beat, since he spends all his time out of range of your best attacks.

Damn it, beat me to it. Was trying to work out how to spell his name! :S

Failing him, I never liked Roger from the Tekken Series either.
