Has anyone from a video game reminded you of someone?

:lol: I was playing Paper Mario, and there was a character in Yold desert that reminded me of someone I don't really know, but happens to be one this forum. So :blank: I thought I'd ask if anyone else has had that happen, have you ever seen a character and realized they reminded you of someone? You don't have to know them or even talk to them, as is in my case. The store owner in Yold Desert town store he says this: "Earn enough, and you win a FREE GIFT! Free stuff. FOR FREE! That's goooooood."
Suddenly, my mind suddenly brought up a member of HBGAMES, but I am a little bit hesitant to say who, cause I don't know him. We're just on the same forum, but suddenly thought, HEY I wonder if anyone else has this same thought?

Have you? What? and WHO!

I'll tell you who I thought of when I read that line in Super paper Mario, Jbrist! (o.o) I don't know why, but I wasn't thinking, suddenly read that line, he popped up in my head. >.> <.< I hope I don't get anyone mad, or even put this in the wrong place. I couldn't figure out where something like this would go, honestly. :thumb:
 
The male playable character in Pokemon Black and White looks EXACTLY like someone in the game club in college, down to the way he dresses, choice in colors, body shape and size, and even the hairstyle. It's like Nintendo was stalking him or something. It's creepy, but everyone in the Game club agrees, it is him. Even he agrees that it looks just like him. Makes me wonder if the guy in Black/White is a raging mecha fanboy too?
 
All of the Final Fantasy games I've played seem to be made up of people from my old school. Even if they do have wacky hairstyles which are gravity defying, they still look exactly like people I know. Act the same, sound the same. I guess it's feasible they're just cosplaying through life. :]

o.o For me, I always think of a million characters, so it doesn't happen to me (often). I (chuckles) guess all us humans really are cliche, aren't we. It's happens with TV dramas, I've seen people that's reminded me of my father. :blank: I saw a Korean guy that was like the KOREAN version of my father! It's kind of weird, when you have a character remind you of someone you know, cause it is like they're stalking you.

Matt Horner in StarCraft II looks weirdly like my bf, aged 10 years. I kept calling him Cap'n Sam.

I got creeped out by Stacey Forscythe in Dead Rising 2. She looks so much like me :I
I even have that same outfit :I

I used to work with a guy named Brent who looked EXACTLY like Coach from L4D2 and even talked the same way.

When I see the sprite version of Lucca from Chrono Trigger I think of Peri:

The hair's not right, but otherwise she really reminds me of her :P

there's a bunch of them :)
