His head bobs when his left foot hits the ground, but not when his right does, so it looks like he has a limp to me. Also, I think his shoulders rotate too far. His right arm practically makes his chest appear to turn 90 degrees. Also, the glitch that Victor mentions is also noticeable in the right shoulder and and is also what causes that limping look.

Are his legs different lengths? he looks like he's limping. When you walk, each side should bob up and down symmetrically (unless you, in fact, do have a limp).
It's actually not that choppy, especially for it not to have been made in a proper animation program. Turn the head a bit with each step. This mockup is turning out to be really nice. You gonna make an actual game?

Edit: Blick peat me to the bunch.

Alright, so I colored the walk cycle.
I think it's looking good.
I also tried taking some of your comments into effect here.

Xion: I'll try and see what I can do about the head turn.
Depending on how this goes it might end up being a game, you never know. :B

You'll probably need to fix the animation on his right arm, it almost teleports back.
Also you should get another shade of dark grey/black.

Alright, I increased the speed on the animation.
How's it look now?

There ya go, slowed it back down.
I agree with you on the strutting, I like it more.
Does it look like the arm jolts back anymore?

Punky is too cute, by the way :D

I suggest going back to a larger chest. It would be cooler, like WonderBoy 6/MonsterWorld 4! A tiny one just doesn't seem so impressive...

After seeing that I agree with you on the chest.
I realized my "gold" color was very bland.
