OK, I just wanted to give a quick list of what I feel are some of the most manly games out there! In case your oblivious a manly games are simply games made by men for men. Now that's not to say women don't play them, it's just that you can tell these we clearly marketed to those desiring to show off their supreme alpha male dominance.
Duke Nukem! - Of course this would be an obvious choice. It's a game all about a man who goes around kicking alien ass and saying some of the best one liners from some of the most awesome movies! And he does all this while sporting his sunglasses and crew cut hair. But where is he doing all this you say? Why in a strip club of course! "It's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum. And I'm all out of gum!"
Gears of War - Tough burly Protagonist not exhibiting any sense of emotion? Check. overly exaggerated muscles? Check. Squad mates that talk only thinking about kicking more ass? Check. Ooh-rah? Check. Machine gun with chainsaw attachment? Oh hell yea! Just by looking at the box you can pretty much tell what this game is all about.
God of War - What is more brutal then having two big ass blades attached to your body and escaping from hell while pulverizing any one that gets in your way? Doing it all to beat the living shit out of a god, A FREAKING GOD! And after the day is done the game invites you to regain some health with a Menage à trois mini game.
Painkiller - A straight violence for the sake of violence shooter where you travel to hell, decimate Satan's army, and do it all with storyline to a minimum. Not only do one out of every three of your enemies explode into several pieces but your weapons are range from a spinning wheel of death to a gun that shoots stakes so massive that they launch your target from here to the end of the room (which is a mile long).
Well there you have it, my quick list of manly games that I enjoy. Now tell me some of yours and why.
Just as a bonus section, here is a list of games that try to be manly but fail!
Halo - Sure it has a space marine who has a desire to kill things but he does it while carrying a gun that looks like it fires foam darts and takes orders from some electronic bimbo. Is that a sun visor on the top of your helmet? What the hell do you need that for? The front of your helmet looks like a giant sunglass lens!
Gears of War 2 - Dom! Stop bitching about your wife, I don't give a fuck!
Street Fighter - Hell yeah! akuma's demon power is gonna beat the shit outta you and......Damn it Chun-Li shot kicking my ass!
