Oh Lord have mercy, security, security, we got a code BLACK. Code BLACK at the main gate.

Really they gave the award to some robot -blam!- piece of -blam!- who I doubt has any development.

Character of the year was actually an award that fans could vote on. Clearly more people thought Claptrap deserved it.

Ah yes, giving a character an emotional side that we've never seen. He needs to stay a hardcore silent military god.

No

Because Master Chief isn't as good of a character as Claptrap.

He doesn't need to stay the silent type, but really, his emotional side just...fell flat. 343 really isn't that great at writing.

Anyway, OP, (I haven't checked the VGAs, but I'll assume that the winner was Claptrap) Claptrap was a fantastic character in Borderlands 2. He easily deserved it more so than Master Chief.

"There's a very fine line between not listening, and not caring. I'd like to think that I walk that line every day."

The Master Chief is just exceptional and progressive, yet nevertheless expendable, UNSC hardware.

Because halo 4 master chief is not halo master chief. More like a cardboard cut out.

Honestly I liked it, but it could be better I'll have to admit.

I'm not saying he deserves character of the year.

I'm just saying we need to see more of Chief. But I mean people on this forum are ACTUALLY COMPLAINING about hearing him talk more often. I just can't fathom even thinking how someone looks at him like that.

His emotional side probably fell flat because he hadn't used it before.

Maybe it's because he's too serious?

Should of gone to Connor, in my opinion. Master Chief was the worst character there.

Master chiefs emotional side was probably flat because he hasn't developed it. I'm sure that inside his helmet emotional introspection takes place.

Based on your post its obvious you haven't played Borderlands/Borderlands 2 so your opinion about this is invalid.

If you clicked on here to ignore my coup, why? Do I look ugly to you? Do I look fat in this dress or what? Jerk.

Because all his lines were awkward as hell and he lost all his memorable lines which were present in 1, 2 and 3.
