I remember using Metal Bomber(a punk) very commonly in Super Bomberman 3. Anyhow, I don't have really favorites in this business because I use different characters as often as possible.

Almost every multi-player game I play is some sort of Mario game, (Kart 64, Tennis, Baseball, Strikers, Party, Smash Bros) and I always pick my man Wario, the best Mario character out there. Until Brawl comes out though, I can't pick him in the Smash Bros. universes, so I usually duke it out with Ganandorf.

Where's Morphine Jim to say Luigi?
In Mario games I picked either Wario or Luigi.
In Goldeneye I remember always picking the scientist or the helicopter pilot with that huge helmet.
Edit:
Smash Bros: Samus. Her charge up gun was awesome, as was her throw, bombs, and screw attack. Utter domination. Probably my favorite overall.
WWF No Mercy: Mr. Ass. He has a really quick special that can easily be done three time before time runs out.
Mortal Kombat: Rain, Baraka, & Cyrax. I loved Rain's lightning attacks, Baraka's slice and dicers, and Cyrax's easy to remember combo.

I hear someone called for a prophet from The Faith.
There is but one true answer, and thou shalt not play as craven characters.

star wars battlefront I only use the dark side, and love the shock troopers (jetback and shotgun hell yeah!) in battlefront II I use anyone that isn't teh rebels, and love the engineers (you cannot canot CANNOT beat health packs, shotgun, plantable bombs, and almost instant vehicle theft.
halo 2 I prefer spartans, but its hialrious to have multipalyer games with nothing but elites making retarded (am I useing that right?) noises.
KOF games vary. I try to stick to the iori, AOF or the fatal fury team, but it changes up as they ruin people. for example, in neowave I use iori, andy, and athena. in 99 I used terry, andy, takuma, and robert. in 2003 I use the fatal fury team (tizok FTW) and swap joe with someone else, usually robert (for his sick LDM) or somebody that isn't duolon from ash's team.
capcom vs snk 2 I use a weird variety of guys, differnt ratios, and amount of characters, usually consisting of terry, geese, rock, ryo, dan, ken, rugal, guile, kyosuke, maybe a few others I cant think of.
marvel vs capcom 2 I use any sort of weird team consisting of psylocke, guile, hayato, ken, venom, spiderman, cable, strider hiryu, amingo, ruby heart, sakura, morrigan, captain commando, iron man, war machine, pissibly other's I can't remember. I make exceptions in earlier games in the series that lack certain characters.
capcom fighting jam I use some combo of jedah, alex, dimitri, ryu, guile, guy, karin.
darkstalkers I use dimitri and morrigan.
soul calibur, I use nightmare, sigfried, lizardman, sofitia, hwang, astaroth. killik, soul calibur II, I use anyone, but prefer cassandra, nightmare, astaroth, yunsung, xiangua. soul calibur III, I hate what they've done with most people, so I play as a CAW(whatever) using samurai (usually) or wahtever. I also use sigfried.
rival schools I use saikou high school (I think that's it) the one with hinata, batsu, and kyosuke. I also dig roy, but the rest of his team sucks.
tekken sucks, but I use steve and hwoarang in the later games. prior to that I used king.
ehrgeiz I play as cloud
more later LOLZ

Wait, you mean the players running around screaming, or the Elites themselves going "wort wort wort"? I've been in a lot of Halo 2 games, but I don't remember everyone running around making retarded noises. Other than that stereotypical Middle East "Alalalalalalala" terrorist scream we used to do. I'm not sure if you were ever in any of those games, though.
That was fun.

Oh, he fucking rules. Roy's pretty okay, too, but it depends on the level. I would use him on Star Fox's Lylat level, because he's a good ground attacker. However, on Rainbow Cruise, I would use Marth (well, I always use Marth unless I'm bored, but you get the idea), because his attacks are more air-based.

marth has a thing to him. hitting people with the tip of the blade does the most damage, where with roy, you want to hit them closer. I just got better with marth because roy is annoying looking.

When we first started playing Goldeneye, I used to pick Oddjob. Oddjob was banned shortly thereafter.
I was a big fan of Siberian Special Forces, because he blended in with some of the Basement textures, and that was the level we played the most. He also blended in with the Compound. When I couldn't get him, I'd usually pick Boris or Baron Samedi, just to be obnoxious.
In Mario Kart 64, it's definitely Toad. His lightness allows me to drive sloppily without much drawback.
In MK, it's Sonya when she's available, followed by Johnny Cage, followed by Scorpion.
But my absolute favorite multiplayer characters are all in the Timesplitters universe. No game even comes to close to TS2 and TS3 in terms of awesome multiplayer characters. And of the Timesplitters characters, R-107 is far and away the best.

Super smash bros : Ness
Super smash bros melee : Roy
Other Mario games : Yoshi, sometimes Baby Mario
Other games : Choosing random players
In the Smash bros. games, I'm good with quite a few characters, but I suck ass with DK or Samus.

MK, in order of preference: Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Raiden.
In the Smash Bros. games I tend to choose Samus for no other reason than she's my favorite Nintendo character and I'm a huge nerd -- not because I'm much good with her.
