I blatantly stole this from the Edge forum, which is another games Forum I use. Some of you may have heard of a website called GayGamer.net which is a pretty funny, good-natured website and not full of vitirol or anything. They recently done a poll on who are the most 'Gay Game Characters' in videogames today. The results are pretty surprising to say the least, especially at the Number One spot! This is the countdown, from Number 20 to Number One:
20 : Raphael from Soul Calibur's 2 and 3
19 : Fox from Bloody Roar
18 : Cybil Bennet from Silent Hill
17 : Nagare Namikawa from Rival Schools 2
16 : Alfred Ashford from Resident Evil: Code Veronica
15 : Eagle from Street Fighter and Capcom vs SNK 2
14 : Major Ivan Raidenovitch Raikov from Metal Gear Solid
13 : Zangief from the Street Fighters
12 : Vamp from Metal Gear Solid
11 : Birdo from Super Mario 2
10 : Brad Evans from Wild Arms 2
9 : Ash from Streets of Rage 3
8 : Damian Shade from Power Instinct
7 : Hana Vachel and Rain Qin from Fear Effect 2
6 : Bertram from Temple of Elemental Evil
5 : King of All Cosmos from Katamari Damacy
4 : Pierre and Gerard Magimel from Shadow Hearts: Covenant
3 : Joachim Valentine from Shadow Hearts: Covenant
2 : Cho Ankini Brothers from Cho Ankini games
and in the Number One spot (You won't believe this...)
Tingle from the Zelda games!

What do you guys think? I pretty much think Luigi should have been there and Link is one of the Gayest Icons out there (He recently won an award for being a Pin-up by some magazine).
