Points for having one of the best "argh!" animations in the series. Also points for being a total badass cowboy policeman, drinking on the job, and owning a cactus. I think Jake's my favorite character from 1-5... excepting one. But yeah. Jake's pretty cool, especially once you start delving into his motives for acting and doing the things he did. He's like a version of Goodman that was disgruntled and didn't go through official channels. ...which is probably why he wasn't stabbed and murdered.

Jake's pretty awesome.

And so continues my top twenty PW characters. Unfortunately, this is where I frantically search for (read: steal) ideas that could be perceived as witty and funny to, at the very least, a retarded 11 year old who somehow surgically removed their two legs and replaced it with a hilariously over-sized beachball. Like (read: stealing from) the now ver- okay, somewhat popular Yahtzee of Zero Punctuation fame, when gushing needlessly over something instead of beating it down with the same tire iron that always randomly shows up in my pants, everyone just stares at me with that same glassy eyed expression a curious puppy gives its master when catching him furiously wanking off. Needless to say, I had to look at myself and ask what the hell I was doing when a detective who thinks he's a cowboy despite not being in a very cowboy-oriented place (and hell, Funk, you should be all over this one too) and seems like he should be instead taking it up the rear with Jake Gyllenhaal AND to top it all off a 1-5 character somehow managed to steal a spot in my top twenty. Why you ask?

I... don't know...

I blame Semi nonetheless.

not just a LOL AMERICAN WEST COWBOY character, he has a pretty awesome backstory and wants to FIND THE TRUTH above all else. jake marshall is just likeable in every respect; he's meant to be awesome and he succeeds in doing so.

Hmm...how should I describe Marshall...a complete badass. This guy is a cowboy. Why? Because he wants to. He saw a special and shouted "No! I must kill the cowboys!". The raido said "No, Jake. You are the cowboy." And then Jake became a cowboy. ...Okay, maybe it wasn't like that. But the point is, Jake Marshall became a cowboy, because he felt like it. Nobody told him he couldn't be a cowboy. And because he's a cowboy, he also gets an extremely awesome theme song. Marshall is just a complete badass. Yeah, SL-9 was going to be official "ended" on the day the murder happened. So what does Marshall do? He poses as Bruce Goodman and tries to get the SL-9 files. Did anyone tell him otherwise? No. Because he is Jake. Damn. Marshall. Also, Marshall has some pretty cool animations. He drinks, he makes a pointing animation as if he's shooting you and his shock animation looks like he's the one getting shot. That's just awesome.

Jake is totally more cooler than his brother, Neil. But that's mainly because Neil got no dialog. Like, at all. Also, Jake's concept art had him carrying his cactus (Billy, I believe.) in his pocket. Even more badassness. And Marshall was originally a detective until he got demoted, due to SL-9. So, now he's just an officer. But when he was a detective? He could possibly make the Epic Detective Trio, consisting of Luke Atmey, Dick Gumshoe, and Jake Marshall. Yeah. Awesomeness. Marshall is just badass and awesome for no particular reason. But that's all he has going for him, really. Oh, and his awesome theme song. Seriously. Extreme awesomeness there.

- best thing about this guy: his "you got me lol" pose which just kills me - one of the few guys that lies like hell on the witness stand but comes out of it being very likable and isn't hostile towards you afterwards - has good reasons for his actions and is overall just a really solid character, I can't imagine disliking Jake Marshall
