yes there are better people than yoda and vader. but they're quite a lot more recognizable than a lot of gaming or movie specific characters.

Some nice choices here, but I notice a pattern. 5 out 7 of seven of your picks are shirtless dudes.

What if Vader and Yoda were shirtless with rippling six pack abs? Would you be more into them then?

Storm Shadow, but no Snake Eyes? For shame, 13thDragon. For shame.

Vader and luke would have been better, then you could classic battle it out!!
id like to see Liono from thundercats with the sword of omens....or shredder from TMNT!!

Decent list. I just wish developers would put characters in their games that made sense.

Dante or Gordon Freeman with his crowbar.

@Jonathan Holmes
Hell yeah, shirtless, six pack Vader would own!

@bloodylip
Storm Shadow generally used more melee weapons, where Snake Eyes liked to use grenades and uzis and stuff. So I figured Storm Shadow would fit better. Plus, Cobra is way cooler than G.I. Joe

@TorpedoTed
Liono and Shredder are awesome picks. I overlooked them.

@electro lemon
Altair has a longsword, a knife, throwing knives & his hidden blade. And Kratos would have to be a PS3 exclusive.

I think Leonidas would own. He would start the fight with his spear / shield and would fight in that style.

Then he has a special move where he throws the spear at his opponent, drops his shield, and draws his sword in one motion. Then fights with the sword style.

Plus he would totally fit into the time period / story line.
