He is Hakumen, the failed hotlink

Seconded.

I always thought Alex Mercer was fun to play as. Not exactly much depth to him though :/

Commander Shepard. Certainly not that ugly brute of a default character, though.

Ok, just to clarify, there is absolutly nothing badass about Gordon Freeman. You can keep trying to find something badass about him, but you won't, because the Master Chief is better. Anyway, my top choice would have to be....

Spoiler: This guy o' course

[HEADING=1]HELLO: AREN'T WE FORGETTING SOMEONE??[/HEADING]

He's the OVD, yo.

Link. Wind Waker Link. I hear you saying "But he's all cartoony!" Let me explain by listing his acheivements.Sailed on a pirate ship. Snuck into a heavily-gaurded fortress. Sails in a talking boat. Ascended a massive tower that was under the sea. Went inside an ancient undersea kingdom, Killed a giant bird. Killed Krakens and fought a rouge wind god. Went inside an active volcano and a cave shooting out ice. Went inside a ghost pirate ship. Sailed all around the sea getting an ancient power. Fought a maniacal warlock, ending the battle by stabbing him in the face, which turns him to stone. Badass enough?

The guy you play as in Saint's Row 2. He is the ultimate criminal badass..

TF2's Demoman. He uses a wide variety of explosives, He's scottish, and he uses a bigass sword that gets stronger each time he decapitates someone.

Ezio Auditore. His job is murdering people, he's friends with Leonardo DaVinci, and he is one of the first men to ever use a freakin' gun. EVER.

Solid Snake. See previous posts...

Actually all the TF2 classes are badass except maybe pyro due to no voice.

I know no one else will agree with me, but I think Dante from Dante's Inferno was a definite bad ass. At least more so than he is in the poem. He literally fights his way down through the circles of hell and defeats the devil. Uhhh yeah.

Kratos kills the ruler of the underworld in the first 1 hour of the game......

 

[Hexal6]

Gordon Freeman has crowbar'd his way through hundreds of aliens, zombies, marines, more advanced aliens, robots, and successfully helped fire two missiles/rockets whatever into the sky. thats more than anyone other character can say.

 

[IamSofaKingRaw]

Seconded.

Honestly Master Chief wouldn't even make my top 5. Take away the F'g power suit and even with his bioenhanced self he'd still get his ass kicked by Snake. Snake destroyed a tank with grenades and his bare hands.

Henry from no more heroes gets my vote.[/QUOTE]
I counter with Travis motherfucking Touchdown.
[spoiler=If challenge had a flavor, this picture would be delicious][img]http://nintenblog.free.fr/images/2006/wii/no_more_heroes_travis_touchdown_20061201.jpg[/spoiler]
Who else could be that nerdy and still be fucking badass?

And for the rest of the list:

Spoiler: Afro, from Afro Samurai

Spoiler: Pretty much all the Persona MC's

No one else could fight demon/shadows/etc. like those guys. While in high school.

Spoiler: But a shout out goes to Shinji

Spoiler: And Dante, K', and Snake, to wrap it up.

Am I only the only one to see a resemblence between K' and Dante?

I gotta go with Gordon on this one, he has a Ph.D. in kicking ass, with science. Who else works is just working a day job and becomes a hero, Spartans are made to be heros, while Mr. Freeman as is said in 2 was just in the right place at the right time. And He has a crow bar the most useful tool in the world, it opens crates and skulls. Personally, I know the gravity gun could toss around John all day long and there is nothing he can do about it. Yeah the Chief has a name.


A man of Science beats a man made by science.

Side note: Real girls like Gordon, while the only girl that likes John is in his head some times in his hand.

I get the feeling I'm going to be shot for this, but...

Mario. No, seriously, Mario is the most badass video game character ever. He jumps on his enemies so hard that he completely flattens them. Their bone structure actually just disintegrates under the mighty soles of Mario's shoes.

He can also leap lord knows how many feet in the air, and that's not including wall jumps.

He's also apparently had his molecular structure rearranged so that he could walk through walls, become a being of solid metal, have the ability to fly, and the ability to launch fire out of his palms at will on top of various other enhancements provided by picking up strange things.

To top it all off, he's damn near, if not entirely indestructible. Think about it, Mario has been shot, stabbed, lit on fire, thrown into lava, electrocuted, blown up, fallen from ridiculous heights, been eaten, crushed, kept underwater for lengths of time that would drown any normal person, can survive in the vacuum of space with no specialized equipment, has had hammers and boomerangs lodged in his skull, and he regularly slams his head into floating brick blocks to smash them and retrieve whatever may be inside. Not only is he still alive, he's gone and learned how to drive an arsenal toting go-kart as well as play various sports for shits and giggles.

Why can he do all these things? So he can save the princess of course. No other reason, no implied ulterior motives (although many are imagined), just so he can save the princess and bring peace to his home.

Mario is a badass.

I never thought I would see that but you make a good point. Hes also fearless traveling down pipes that could lead to anywhere, even with killer plants down them and smashing big blocks of bricks with his hands (probably covered in blood).

I also remember Mario fly kicking down a castle he just massacred in Super Mario World.

This is still my favourite though. In Super Metroid Samus could nearly do everything, you don't see her running so fast that she can literally destroy everything in her path, then using that energy to fly in the new games.

NO! Not the new Samus, I don't want to hear/see it.
