I was thinking of Alex from Half-Life 2, and how unsettling it was to see how battered she was getting as the storyline of Half-Life2 Episode 2 went on. And the last terrible minutes of the storyline as her father was in a situation I can only hope they remedy (if possible) in Episode 3
With video games having so many sequels I am not sure about the rest of you but sometimes I feel like I am getting attached to the characters similar to the way you would on a favorite tv show.

Yeap. I've always debated with my friends about this topic in regards to robotics. This great presentation gives the phenomenon a name. Plus, I've never really considered the same effect happening in video games and movies, but I suppose it rings true there too. Great vid!

I actually did not think it would be good at first but afterwards it was so good that i wanted it to continue so i would learn more about it.

Everything good that can be said about this vid has been said and I do not like it when someone simply posts the same thing that anyone else has already posted and try to pass it off as their original thoughts... Only want to say, My only regret is that I can only vote once and cannot give this vid 2 thumbs up! but on a a scale of 1 to 10, this vid is a solid 11 & a 1/2 monkeys!
