 Not a main character of course, but Barrett was mentioned, so why not her? Oh, and I thought Samir from Starcraft was Middle-Eastern? |

Um yeah he's Indian. Or didn't the Yoga, Elephants, Taj Mahal, or blinking circle in India tip you off  Of course he's Indian. You see even *less* Indians in games than you do "black" characters. And because the Aztecs get no love either...   |

No shit... really? I grew up on the edge of a Six Nations reserve, I think I know the difference between India Indian and "American Indian." Thanks for the wisdom, though. You all should really stop making assumptions and confusing the hell out of yourselves. :D Neither Indians (from India), nor Aztecs (from Mexico), get much love in video games... capiche? |

Well, Mayans do get more love in media. It may be that aztecs where disliked by many, that they got a very bad reputation. I am none to judge whether it was deserved or not. |

Mad: Well, excuuuuse me, princess.  I thought you were saying you also posted him because Aztecs get no love either. I mean, you were still talking about him and then just ended with "And because the Aztecs get no love either..." So I assumed you were still talking about him. I wasn't like, insulting your integrity or anything, Mr. Garden, if that's how you took it. |

And btw, this is a thread for black characters, not "types of people that get no love!" Stay on topic! |

And because Aztecs get no love either (dot dot dot), Madgarden posts screenshots from Aztec games. Me, integrity? FEH!  I realize the topic is about black characters, but I'm making a statement about diversity... SO THERE! |

Neither, Mustapha from Cadillacs & Dinosaurs (comic book) or Jim from Tom Sawyer (novel), are original video game characters. But since no one explicitly said they had to be original video game chars I suppose it's... Alright?  |

Squaresoft's Tom Sawyer RPG. Perhaps the most racist representation of a black game character in a mainstream game. Most of it has to do with the export racist images to Japan. |
