What an… interesting list. What are we thinking?

Personally I’m stunned Lara Croft made the top five and Agent 47 seems like an odd choice. Small sample size?

  4. Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic the Hedgehog

  5. Sackboy, LittleBigPlanet

      I think it could be successfully argued that Pikachu is only top 10 if we include presence in non-gaming media.

      Sackboy being on the list though is wild

      I’m interested to see if they provided a list or if they asked people to submit their own choices. Sackboy and Arthur Morgan are…I mean I’d argue Arthur isn’t even the most iconic character in his own game. Surely that honour goes to John Marston?
