The second company that I'm doing research on is an American Company by the name of Naughty Dog. Naughty was the creator of many iconic characters, one of which that actually inspired my character design for the video game I have been working on. As I said, Naughty Dog has so many characters but I will only choose from about 3 characters.
Nathan Drake -
Nathan Drake is the most famous video game character on the PlayStation 3, he is also a mix of Indiana Jones and Lara Croft since the Uncharted series is inspired by games like Tomb Raider and films such as Indiana Jones. The main selling point of this character is that he is everything a person wants to be and also the character of Nathan Drake is incredibly likeable because of his additude.
Crash Bandicoot -
Crash Bandicoot is one of the many iconic video game characters that even though they aren't around anymore they are still memorable for what they did for gaming. Crash first appeared on the PlayStation One which was released during the early 90's and with the help of Crash actually made the PlayStation One the must have console during the 90's. His appeal comes from the gameplay style of his game which is similar to that of a classic 3D Mario game on the N64 which many people loved and Crash improved the formual.
Jak -
Jak was the first new IP in the PlayStation 2 generation and his games were incredibly popular amongst PlayStation fans. He was a character that was slowly developed over time and became a just as popular as Crash and helped the PlayStation 2 to survive and many people still see him as the perfect character and at first his selling point was that he never talked in the original game but later on started to talk which was unique for the time but it made the character seem like he was growning up along side the many fans that have played his games which makes him sort of like a childhood friend almost.
