So the votes are in and apparently, after 28 years, over 100 games and sales of over 222 million, new research recently carried out by YouGov across Europe reveals the Italian dynamo, Mario as the best-loved video game character of all time.

Now for me I have several characters that I've hung out with on multiple occasions. For several years Ken from Street Fighter was my bezzy mate cos we kicked up all opposition that came before us.

I then had a cyber affair with Lara Croft (Tomb Raider) we discovered ancient artifacts stopped power hungry dictators and also saved the world from falling into darkness then Lara started making movies so I left her and along came Solid Snake from Metal Gear solid. We saved the world many times and no one even said thanks. Now whenever I bump into Ken, Snake or Lara it still raises a smile.

What characters make you smile? I know one of Mikes was Krakos, but I wanna know about you guys. Whose your favourite gaming character of all time? Pacman, Sonic the Hedgehog....??

Come on don't be on a long one!I
