Glottis was a demon, not a hamster. Okay, now that you mention it, maybe he did look a bit hamsterish. But no mere hamster could have looked so terrific in a sailor suit.
He was also ahead of his time in the use of chrome as an artistic medium.

Strangely enough, although it is definitely my favorite game, even above TLJ...its got to be Phoenix the sadistic Kidnapper/Murderer in "In Memoriam" he keeps calling me "His Little Friend" Ugh. "Walt" With friends like Phoenix you don't need enemies. 
If at first you dont suceed, deny you even tried.

For me it was agent Winslow in Black Dahlia. He drove me crazy with his Jim-Bo & sport. I wanted to reach in the puter & back hand the arrogant s.o.b.

Really Jenny100 you did not like that parrot, he was so cute and "cooperative". LOL Not to mention Marcie the desk clerk!
I found Arnold's (the gov.) voice annoying after I fell in the lava a few times in Torins Passage.

Almost forgot about Winslow, however Winslow I believe was simply putting on an act to hide his true personality, in Samuel's case I believe It actually WAS his personality.

so far (and I'm only in ch1) Samuel from BM is arrogant and autocratic... nothing like a true aristocrat.... Oh and the worker you are referring to had only been with them for a year.... (if you mean the gardener!!) Hugs Tig

Oh I forgot about how annoying that desk clerk was in Starship Titanic! and the bellbot, and the bomb computer, but the parrot NOBODY could ever forget! They were deliberately annoying though, that was part of the humor & charm. I'm not sure that counts... unless blowing them up deliberately would give you great enjoyment. oh wait.... Susan

Oh oh, I thought of one! Kate Walker's fiance (from Syberia, of course)! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="tongue.gif" /> I can't even remember the jerk's name, what was it? And geez, what a big baby. Kate's "friend" wasn't so great either, sleeping with the fiance, or did they just kiss, or did they not really say, I forget, but it was definitely something...sheesh. Other than that, I usually love most of the characters in my games. And as for Samuel Gordon (mind, I'm only in the second chapter), I did notice his arrogance and got a little surprised and angry at his yelling at Henry and Morris, but I was thinking they're just trying to set us up for realizing he has some anger problems or something (associated with his headaches, I dunno), since he did ask himself at one point why he had yelled at Morris. Just my thought, but I haven't finished the game.

Absolutely a TIE, imho, between Henry Stauf (7th Guest) and Fluffy Fluffy Bun Bun (Toonstruck). BOTH of those characters actually kept me from finishing the games. I would just get way too annoyed each time I either heard their voices or their sarcastic and biting comments. ICK!
PLAYING ON PC: World of Warcraft...nothing else...there is no need for ANY other game when you have THIS one to play!! LOL
