Who is Your Favourite GTA Protagonist

I reckon it's Niko. He's probably the most sympathetic, as is GTA IV's story overall.

Niko. A classic tragic hero. Also I think he has the most depth of all the GTA characters. Second would be Michael, Luis Lopez in 3rd place.

Tommy Vercetti

    It's so hard to pick one specific character. If I had pick one character, I'd have to pick Carl Johnson from GTA: San Andreas. Although I don't like anything involving rap, I can respect the fact that he tries to better himself by getting out of the ghetto. CJ has to make tough decisions throughout the game. He has to kill his former friends Ryder and Big Smoke. He has to save Madd Dogg and his brother Sweet. From start to finish, you really connect with Carl and see how hard his life's been (with the death of his brother Bryan and his mother) and what he has to do in order to keep moving forward.

    Runner up would have to be Claude from GTA 3. He never says a single word during the game but his actions say it all. Working for and then having to go against the Mafia. It's basically one big revenge mission against Catalina. And probably one of the funniest things I've heard in a GTA game, when he goes to talk to the one girl (I can't remember her name off hand) when they have to flee Liberty City she says, "Don't say anything!" Priceless. XD

Gotta love Nico Bellic. He had a different perspective on things in America, and the fact that he wasn't exactly sold on the 'American Dream' was funny. He also seemed to be a good guy deep down, whilst still being a general badass.

Niko is the best written character.

Trevor is really underrated though. He's like the embodiment of how most people play GTA outside of missions. I enjoyed throwing bricks at random business men in GTA IV, but it didn't feel like something Niko would actually do. Trevor on the other hand, would totally spend his free time pouring gasoline on dead hippies even if I weren't in control of him.
