Guybrush Threepwood made #7 on Empire's 50 Greatest Game Characters list, being beaten by Link, Lara Croft, Mario, and Gordon Freeman, but beating out tons of characters like Master Chief, Sephiroth, Sonic, Duke Nukem, Solid Snake, and Cloud Strife. Go to the link and click higher to show the world Guybrush well deserves his spot! :D

Manny Calavera made 30th.

Dr. Fred Edison made 40th.

Sam and Max made 42nd.

    46% say higher, 54% say lower.

    I bet 50% of the voters have never even heard of the character.

    Funny! The Secret of Monkey Island first started production in 1989 and was released in the fall of 1990. I know this by heart.

    "defeated the legendary swordmaster with zingers that included the particularly biting 'You fight like a dairy farmer.'"

    Shouldn't that be "You fight like a cow"?
