Favourite Playable Character!!

What? Too much Chris? The guy is the main protagonist of the series, yet he's taken a back seat to everyone until RE5. He was in RE1, and then had half of RECV. He's the most underused main character (until, like I said, RE5).

Chris' portion of RECV was actually the better part.

Sure was.

Miss valentine is the only Jill that hates Chris

[Updater]

She sure is. Where is Dot btw? he should have been got rid of me.

[Jill's Boob]

Sure was.

Nice to see that we can agree on something before your impending excommunication.

while i agree with you that Chris's part of CVX was the best, i still do not like Chris or his story, i just find it generic and his character is bland, no offence if you like him but that's my opinion.

and no Chris is not the main protagonist of the series, to be a main protagonist of a series you have to be in every game, RE has an ensamble cast of Jill, Claire, Leon, Chris and maybe Rebecca if you include here as well.

RE3 has a good soundtrack. It had a very militaristic score.

True but after RE 5 things will chance.

[Becky's Butt]

I've liked most of the RE games' soundtracks...

BTW, Mr. Spencer, are you the same one from the REHorror forums?

[aris13]

It had a very militaristic score.

The track that you are talking about is the one when you enter the trolley and Nickolai explains his plan to Carlos and Jill. The ending theme of the game is also good.

NO, THEY, WILL, NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chris will never become the main protagonist, RE6 should have Barry but will have Claire or Jill as the main character.

[missvalentine]

oh and yeah i love all the RE music.

especcialy Outbreaks main theme.

[Alexia_Ashford]

Yeah he's the same guy. I never really listened to music much in any game but CVX, that was only because songs were made to be a big part of the game. RE3 had good music though. I enjoyed how it was used to make you feel scared, like the music when you knew Nemesis was about to burst out.

Chris will never become the main protagonist

He.. already kind of, is? He was in RE1, CVX, UC, and now RE5. You can't argue that he isn't the main protagonist for RE5, because that would just be you know... dumb.

i LOVED the RPD theme, and the gaurdhouse theme.

I find Chris to be the most interesting, in that his moral stance has never wavered and he truly cares about his friends & family. He also has set aside his personal life to focus on his quest to rid the world of bio-terror.

I don't see how that is bland or generic? He started off as a rebel (smoking cigs, spiky hair, kicked out of the USAF) and became motivated by the incident at the mansion. He found direction.

But I can see how he doesn't appeal to younger gamers...he became just a clean cut golden boy in RECV and REUC. He doesn't sport emo-hair or try to flirt with various women (Claire, Ada, Ashley, Hunnigan) or dudes (Luis, Krauser, Salazar) like the current favorite RE male. He doesn't spout lame one-liners, besides his zinger in RE1: "Looks like we got to the root...of the problem."

Lo and behold, here is RE5 Chris. He's gruff, unshaven, disillusioned...questioning what's become of his life; questioning what he's devoted himself to. He's been lifting weights to try to create some leverage against his superhuman foe, and maybe to supress some deep emotional pain (Jill's death?) - when you think about it, Chris is the most developed and empathetic character. He's the most real, the most human...which is amazing, considering how little he's appeared.

And, yes, he very much IS the main protagonist. A protagonist has an enemy, the antagonist. Everyone knows Wesker is the primary antagonist in the RE world, and who is Wesker's #1 enemy? That's right - one Christopher Redfield.

Sad thing is...after RE5, I'm guessing Chris will develop a large mass of fanboys like Leon did after RE4. I like it just fine the way it is now, with people disregarding him. Leave the rabid fanboys & fangirls to the lame characters, I say...
