Top 10 Bad Ass Game Characters
Hemarroid | 7:01 AM on 02.05.2009 29 comments


Number 10
Dante - Devil May Cry

Why he is on the top 10?
Do you know anyone who can fight a horde of demoniac creatures while a slice of pizza is up in the air, and when all the fuckers are killed you still can grab it and eat it? At least I don't.
He uses a fucking huge sword and a nice pair of pistols, and he does hell a nice pack of combos? What would you want more?
Why he is not in first place?
He kinda cheats, after all he is half-human half-demon, so it isn't fair for the human characters.



Number 9
The Straight Line - Tetris

Why he is on the top 10?
Really guys how many times in tetris you needed the straight line? Almost all the time! You can't go wrong with it, and when he appears it's like xmas came earlier... but in 2D.
Why he is not in first place?
Although the straight line is great, some people can still fuck up the game, and put the line in the wrong place, and if you were in a bad situation, then basically you are now officially screwed!



Number 8
Samus - Metroid

Why SHE is on the top 10?
Seriously when you played Metroid for the first time what was your first thought? "Man, this guy with this armored suit rocks!", and when you ended the game what did you thought? Was it: "OMG IT'S A CHICK!"? Sure it was, and only for that she deserves to be in this list!
Why SHE is not in first place?
Come on! It's a girl for god sake! And everybody knows that the place for a girl is in the kitchen! ... Just kiding darling...



Number 7
Zero - Megaman

Why he is on the top 10?
Because he is awesome! He's like Megaman's mentor, and he fucking uses a plasma-laser-thing sword. And if this isn't enought you still have the Zero Virus which is a bad version of him!
Why he is not in the first place?
Well he is too much in second place in the Megaman X series, so I guess is not that bad ass...



Number 6
Gordon Freeman - Half-Life

Why he is on the top 10?
Imagine this, you're a scientist working in some top secret experiment, and from one moment to another hell break loose, and aliens are all over the place, what would you do? Scream like a little girl? Get the most powerful weapon you can find? Commit suicide? No! You grab a fucking crowbar and start an alien killing spree!
Why he is not in the first place?
He looks a nerd and he is to much similar to Adam from the Mythbusters.



Number 5
Kratos - God of War

Why he is on the top 10?
Pffff do I need to say why? Ok I'll say why: because he is FUCKING AWESOME! ... and he get's laid...
Why he is not int the first place?
He is basicly a god, so... no.



Number 4
Altair - Assassin's Creed

Why he is on the top 10?
He's an assassin for god sake! He uses that cool robe, uses a freaking hidden blade, climbs building, has no mercy when it's killing time and he is missing one finger.
Why he is not in the first place?
In the beggining of the game he was a dougebad what was awesome, but at the ending he was a little too much nice to people, so he just lose the first place with that.



Number 3
Sephiroth / Cloud / Vincent - Final Fantast VII

Why THEY are on the top 10?
To tell the truth I didn't knew who to choose, so hell this is my list so they are all three in number 3!
They have cool weapons, they are fashion, and they KICK ASS! And there isn't a coller battle that Cloud vs Sephiroth in Advent Children

[b]Why they are not in the first place?
[/b]In China they say: "The bigger your weapon is, the smaller your di..."



Number 2
Solid Snake - Metal Gear Solid

Why he is on the top 10?
It's fucking Solid Snake, he doesn't need a reason to be where, he just belongs were! Even the old Snake, with that awesome mustache!
Why he is not in the first place?
You must be thinking why in hell he isn't in first place, it's my list so SHUT UP!



And... NUMBER 1!
Duke Nukem - Duke Nukem

Why he is on the top 10?
"It's time to kick ass and chew gum and I've ran out of gum"... THAT IS FUCKING AWESOME! I mean this guy shits on a alien face, how could someone be cooler that this? He doesn't need a reason to be number one, hell he is the fucking number one it self, even the freaking Megadeth made a cover of his theme song, and that in my little world is FUCKING AWESOME!!!

Duke Nukem... YOU FUCKING ROCK! Can't wait to play Duke Nukem Forever... if someday it comes out...

This list was completely justified when I discovered that DUke Nukem was #1.

List APPROVED!!!

I Would disagree. If this list is suppose to be in a specific order than definitely Kratos should be #1 or at least higher on the list than the FF7 characters. come on, he is a brutal mental patent that got released out in ancient greek to reek havok. He IS the god of war, how much more bad ass is that, if it wasn't for Kratos there would be no Duke Nukem or Solid Snake cause there would be no war. He killed a god and has sex with two women at a time both giving them simultaneous orgasms, can you do that? How can you do that!? Anyways that's my opinion. Good list, I especially like the straight block, lol very true.

I totally came here preparing a "you forgot..." comment, but this is a pretty solid list. Ok, there's a 24 game, so technically you forgot Jack Bauer, but still.

Good job on recognizing Duke!

I fear that this new generation of gamers may never experience his glory.

@Rucksack, I know what you mean.
Let's keep our hopes in Duke Nukem Forever

Flip Dante and Duke Nukem. Duke gets penalized for the lack of Duke Nukem Forever (and im sorry, the original games werent that good). I was actually planning on putting together my own list of badass video game characters, so its good to see my idea(s) are shared by others.

WHERE. THE. FUCK. IS. LARA. CROFT.

Jokes, good list there.

You may appreciate my blog on Tetris because I certainly did.

Dante is nowhere near a badass. I have problems with characters that are extremely forced. If you have to put forth a lot of effort to scream out, "look, I'm a badass!" then you aren't a badass.

Come on man, Altair? He's just a modernized version of Garret. Yeah, he's got some more gadgets and shit, but you just can't beat the badass-ness of Garret.

If you don't know who I'm talking about, then STFUAJPG!

@Caffeine Knight - Well said. Anyone that doesn't appreciate Garret is a taffer.

You're the man for including the straight line in Tetris.

I don't think I have ever seen Garret jumping rooftops and climbing walls, so to me Altair is bad assier than Garret.

This list is win strictly due to the Straight Line in Tetris getting a place.

Oh and as for Duke, "I'm here to kick-ass and chew bubble gum...and I'm all outta gum." Amazingly bad-assed

Replace Altair with T.G. Cid from Final fantasy tactics and this list will be correct.

your reasons for why they arent number one are bullshit.

just because they arent human they cant be "#1 badass videogame character"?

you should change the blog title to "most badass normal human beings in games"

@Hemmaroid - I really like your list actually and don't fault you for liking Altair at all, its your list.

BUT, if you want to know what we're talking about with Garret, I did an in depth look on him during the "Cast of A Thousands" themed month that I am pretty proud of... if your at all interested. If not, well... fine then, hehe. Carry on.
