how on earth did she beat Sonic, Mario, Pac-Man even
B afta
but to actually answer the question
"What is so iconic about Lara Croft is the fact that she is [a] female lead in a video game," she says.
"She's all about girl power and female empowerment. She's at the forefront, she is what the adventure is."
Bafta says more than 4,000 gamers around the world took part in the poll through its website.Wow those are lower votals than gfax contests. If B8 had known about this we could have put Phoenix Wright on there!
I legit had to look up who Astarion and Shadowheart were.

We could've put Chester in the top 10.Dang. What could have been...

And then Samus is nowhere to be seen lol. Heck, I'd take Aloy or Chelle.
Mario didn't have a movie starring Angelina Jolie
Well then it's time to play the goty 2023, Baldurs Gate 3. Shadowheart is my future wife and Astarion is the best friend I never knew I needed (or will ever trust). They are both legitimately great but to consider them above others on that list is lol.
but seriously play BG3
To be fair to Bafta, this was a list that anyone could vote on and only around 4000 did. With a sample size that small you're going to have an odd looking list.
Even so, fairly certain that the average gamer out here in the UK will know who Sonic the Hedgehog is over Laura Croft.Yes, and specifically we need a contest for most iconic British film character and then tell nobody outside B8 to vote in it.
List is dumb and clearly we need a contest here to rectify it.

Difference is random people on the street will know who Lara Croft/Tomb Raider is. Metroid, Horizon, Portal,...that's gamers only.

I think the point was that Metroid was actually famous for the reveals that you played as a girl which was huge at the time yet was given no credit at all. Not that she should've been above Lara.
Also since Samus is much more recognizable to people on the street, partially due to Smash but still, than some of the answers here it's a bit of a moot point.
