10 Best Video Game Characters Of The New Generation

7. Jordi Chin - Watch Dogs

It's hard to mention Watch Dogs without an instant flailing of arms going skyward and a wave of outrage befalling any that do, but - whisper it - not everything about that game was terrible.

In fact besides the absolutely godawful main character who looked like some cross between a child-bothering alley-walker and an unwashed Microsoft DOS enthusiast, the sporadically-appearing and always-hilarious Jordi brought some much needed levity to the otherwise dull proceedings. Playing the part of a close confidant who also doubles as a weapons handler and occasional life-saver when Aiden is in a bit of trouble, he even had a touch of the Trevor Philips about him when it came to how utterly disconnected he was from the horror of his criminal actions.

Sadly Jordi was completely underused, with only a fraction of cutscene appearances and a late-game plot point just proving how random he could be. However considering the overall feeling of mediocrity that pervaded every inch of Watch Dogs he was a welcome respite, and a window into a sense of humour that could have secured the game as something other than rather large waste of time otherwise.
