So many games have other, smaller games within them that sometimes it feels like video game characters spend as much time playing games as we do.
In the spirit of Kotaku’s made-to-order box quotes, we thought we’d ask some of our favorite video game characters what they think of the games they play.
“Zork… that’s a tough one. Fun factor is a 5 but graphics, honestly, a 0. Lasting appeal seems like a 3. Need me to tell you more about those numbers?” – Alex Mason
“Visceral. Compelling. Darts is the Citizen Kane of games involving darts.” – Niko Bellic
“Pazaak moves slower than a bantha on Hoth. Recommended only for those stuck on Taris for extended periods of time.” – Jedi With Mysterious Past
“Tin Pin Slammer seems fine, I guess. I don’t know. What do you want from me? Leave me alone.” – Neku
“Future Street Racer is a racing game with great graphics. It is not that lame. I like to play when I skip school. If I was a game reviewer I would give it a 9, probably.” – Jimmy Hopkins

“Twelve years and all I get is this lousy 1942 knockoff?” – Jim Raynor
