Some heroes are born great, some have greatness thrust upon them, and some get given sweet robot arms then spend a whole game moaning about them, like these 7 protagonists who really didn’t sign up for this. Subscribe to Outside Xbox! And beware spoilers for the following games: Half-Life, Half-Life 2, Fallout: New Vegas, Red Faction: Guerrilla, Dead Space, 5 Nights at Freddy's, Alan Wake, various Space Quests.

Take luckless theoretical physicist Gordon Freeman. This is a man with a doctorate from MIT who should be using his mighty brain to solve complex equations, not gun down waves of soldiers. Instead he hasn’t done any science in ages. Physics puzzles don’t count.

Unluckier still is poor old Isaac Clarke, He’s just a systems engineer trying to get a job done - a job in space, granted, but signing on to a mining ship doesn’t mean you are automatically up for Lovecraftian space horror. At least operating an engineer's plasma cutter turns out to be a transferable skill.

Hapless space janitor Roger Wilco, on the other hand, is constantly being abducted, shoved into time rips by his own son and pursued by killer androids. He's nearly as ill-equipped for heroism as Alan Wake, a novelist with writer's block and a torch.
