Most Badass Character Death.

[Cobbs]

Read the title and post. Simple.
(Dont shoot me if this has already been done)
For me it's a toss up between Bill (Left 4 Dead) or Boone from New Vegas. (His death follows below)
If he is unable to escape his memories and Caesar achieves victory at Hoover Dam, Boone stages a suicide mission against the Legate. Fighting as he wished he had on the day of his wife's death, he brings down scores of Legionaries before being caught. Before his crucifixion, he is brought before the Legate, who expresses his admiration for Boone's reckless abandon. Boone spits tobacco in his eye, for all of Caesar's armies to see.

Thing is, he was already flatlining when doing all that. That is badass.

I've always gone back to Boromir's death in The Two Towers. Peter Jackson did it proper justice in Fellowship, for which I commend him.

 

[Istanbul]

Dante. Clerks.

I can think of nothing better to punctuate the point and feel of the movie.

 

[Jacking]

Skelter-Helter in No More Heroes 2.

 

[JemothSkarii]

Zack Fair. Crisis Core. 'Nuff said

Yeah man, I'm so going with that one.

Molten lava...
Thumbs up...
What film is that from? I must see it, just so I can share the greatest death in the world of the history of ever.

And even though I haven't seen it, I'm going with that.

That's insane- even while clicking on this thread, before it loaded, the first thing that came to my mind while thinking of the title... was that scene.

 

[repeating integers]

How about Jorge's death, from Halo: Reach?

This also qualifies. I love T2. [small]I also like T3... but not nearly as much of course. Please don't kill me[/small]

 

[random_bars]

Gonna have to be Andrew Ryan.

 

[Knusper]

I'll have to say Bill from Left 4 Dead, it was particularly done well in the comics.

 

[Salem_Wolf]

Spoiler: Expanded Universe; Star Wars

Chewbacca died by being crushed by a friggin MOON.

I think I can safely say: /thread

I'm kidding about the "/thread" part and I apologize for this not being gaming related, I just really can't think of one. Sorry. >_>;

 

[The Geek Lord]

The protagonist of Pesona 3, Kurtis from Disgaea Hour Of Darkness, no one can deny either of these are badass.

Never played FES and never will, so I don't know about Minato, however, I will agree... KURTIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS

Spoiler

Saw that one coming a mile or fifteen off. Not that I blame anyone for thinking of this, after all, Gurren Lagann is one of the best animes evah and stuff.

Personally, however, I'm gonna go with...

Spoiler: Zeta Gundam ending spoilers

Kamille Bidan. Okay, okay, he didn't actually die, but what happened was close enough.

He impaled the villain ON THE ZETA GUNDAM and saved everyone from Rapist Space Hitler. Rapist Space Hitler, being a complete and total doucheface, decides "fuck everyone who disagrees with me" and turns Kamille into a man-child for the rest of eternity.

God that was the most depressing ending ever. I hate Rapist Space Hitler. Then again, who doesn't, after all...

Spoiler

His hair offends you!

You ninja. >_>

This scene was so badass!

 

[GuideBot]

Oh, SPOILERS FOR HALO REACH.

Incase you didn't know they all die and reach falls.

That bit at the end of lone wolf when Noble 6 goes down heroically, fighting walls of elites was pretty awesome. The whole lone wolf mission was fairly ace.

Spoiler

John Marston's in RDR. I mean, a firing squad is pretty badass, especially if you shoot half of them.

Red Dead Redemption
John Marston. You gun down as many of the fuckers as your dead-eye meter allows you to...but it's futile. Still...you're a cow-boy, and you aint gonna go down without no fight.

Bioshock
Andrew Ryan. That scene in general is so well done. I mean...you never have control taken away from you until then...and why? Because you're being mind-controlled, and at that instance everything that happened before hits you like a brick. His death is also quite admirable. Sure he had a rather messed up philosophy, and he then proceeded to turn his back on that philosophy in a pathetic attempt to keep hold of power, but he went down a 'man' and not a 'slave'. He chose his death, and by making you do it against your will, highlighted you as just a slave. Powerful.

Halo Reach
Emille in particular had a cool death. Gets over-run with Zealot Elites, guns one of them down point blank, but gets back-stabbed by another. With a sword thrust right through his stomach he's still able to swing around and shove a knife in his killers neck.

"I'm ready! How 'bout you?"


Noble Six's death is also great. You keep on fighting until it's wave after wave of Elites, and you're getting hammered with Wraith mortars. Eventually you have to die, but you go down fighting.

Mass Effect 2
Not really bad-ass at all, but if you're fail-shep on the suicide mission, then you die. It's kind of touching seeing all your squad die, only for Sheppard to fall from the Normandy at the very end, all the while pleading Joker to get the hell out of there so he can tell the galaxy the reapers are coming.
