13.2, because the artist has managed to convey a solid concept wheras the more next gen examples dont look quite up to next gen game quality and arent very interesting aesthetically in silhouette or style.

16.dont have a favorite, alot of games are played first person anyway so the characters identity isnt so important, its the non players and environments who are more important to gameplay in alot of cases.

Please answer the following questions with a sentence.
13. 3. There's enough substance there to convey a specific character and to be aesthetically pleasing. The lower pixel ones are not defined enough to accomplish this for this character, and the 3d ones aren't executed well enough to portray the character as cleanly as in the high-pixel one.

15. I like them both in general, but the current generation of 3d art (Unreal 3, etc) is at a good level right now, where there does not seem to be any major compromise between style, quality, and technical limitations. (Earlier 3d art, from PS1/N64 to PS2/XB/GC always seemed a little cramped to me.)
16. Kirby. He's fairly simple visually, he's never given dialogue or attributed definitive thoughts or emotions (so his portrayal never contradicts my own thoughts/feelings as a player during the games he appears in), and most importantly, he's got a versatile set of actions and ways to interact with his environment that exceed those of any traditional humanoid character (so he's fun to play as).
