10 Best GTA Characters Of All Time

By Jamie Kennedy /

9. Yusuf Amir

The quote, "Y'know, we were just having a little creative meeting, things went a little crazy and somehow I lost my pants" perfectly sums up the character of Yusuf Amir, who has only appeared in the GTA IV offshoot, The Ballad Of Gay Tony thus far. Eager to please the main protagonist of the game, Luis Lopez, Amir flaunts his supposed Playboy lifestyle, and does a remarkably entertaining job of it. One endearing thing about the character is that he seemingly just wants people to like him, a trait found in many GTA figures. In contrast to Roman Belic's cousin, Niko in GTA IV, who offers similar lighthearted comedy, Amir never becomes irritating, and instead skirts the fine line between unfortunate buffoon and useful ally nicely. Besides, everyone wishes they had a friend like this, right?
