Think you've got your roman numerals confused for Alexander

He wasn't in KQ IV.

This could be a new grammatical style I enjoy:

The Seed · 08-25-2005, 01:18 PM

"They took my keys...I don't like that!"

Ben is so cool!

08-25-2005, 02:14 PM

"Biker Ben"? Try "Ben".

How about "Ben Throttle"? That's his name, even if LEC dropped the surname for fear of being sued.

Next Thursday? I thought that was when the Vogons were scheduled to do it...

Or, in the spirit of our newfound way of speaking, "They took my keys...I might not like that!"

Anyway, seeing as how April is the only character on this list who has actual character development, I think I'm going to go with her.

Sued by the makers of "Biker Mice from Mars," no less--how weird is that? But honestly, 'Throttle' is a rather iffy surname, imho, it may be for the best that it wasn't used.

Actual character development? You mean "Daddy, lookit my ring and by the way I hate you"? Ha, don't make me laugh.

I voted for Alexander. He went from slave boy to king of the Green Isles -- if that's not character development, I don't know what is.

Besides, any guy who sails halfway around the world to spring a girl from a tower is good in my book.

Captain Blondebeard · 08-25-2005, 10:04 PM

I knew Fov would vote Alexander. She's a sucker for his Billy Ray Cirus looks.

I didn't say it's the greatest character development. But at least they tried, which is more than you can say for, oh, I don't know, every other adventure game character ever made.

Ben: "I am filled with a generic tough guy attitude!"

Alexander: "Oh, why doesn't Cassima love me? Le sigh! I think I'll spend the next twenty hours in teenage-like anguish over my lost love!"

Alexander is the emo kid of adventure games.

Mimus · 08-26-2005, 05:53 AM

I think the important question though, is who would win in a fight between Alexander and April Ryan?

Tramboi · 08-26-2005, 05:55 AM

Of course Ben is the coolest, he can fight with a bicycle chain! (or a triplex)

Wreck · 08-26-2005, 07:23 AM

LOL maybe I should have said "I'm making this poll on a thursday, so give it a week, it'll end next Thursday.

Wow

I dunno, I call him Biker Ben. *shrug

"I ain't puttin' my lips on that"
"I don't have anything"
"I need a new pair of forks.."

April, of course. Alexander would never hit a girl.

Hey, when you're a 14 year old girl (as I was when I first played KQ6), that's just about the best character development ever.

Alexander totally was in KQIV. Of course, only right at the start and the end, but he's there. Just like he's at the end of KQV as well.

But yeah... Voting for Alexander "What can you tell me about the land?" Graham.

RLacey · 08-26-2005, 09:21 AM

Ben for me, for being the most amusing. I could never stand Alexander.
