I totally adore these games, I wouldn't have got into games without them, therefore not Sonic, and wouldn't be here
Personally, Leon was easily my fave character, I think he's EASILY the best of the characters, and have since 1999 when I first played RE2
I don't know what it was, I just loved him as a character, his desire to protect everyone he found during the RE2 Incident, his story with Ada Wong in that game, the way he saved her when he took that bullet Annette fired...such a great character, even at 9 years old I loved the guy
I was so beyond happy to see him make a return in RE4, I really was Very Happy
I'm kinda upset he's apparantley not even going to be remotly in RE5 though ;(
