lol, I can think of so many...
I'll keep it at three:
Also known as Nightmare, from the Soul Calibre series. A decent guy that comes across Soul Edge, and loses himself to absolute corruption for many years, becoming a rampaging avatar of death and destruction. He eventually gets all the pieces of Soul Edge together, and gets rid of Soul Edge, essentially tearing his own soul asunder. He finds redemption in Soul Calibre, and does a complete U-turn, becoming a scion of righteousness, in order to destroy Soul Edge, and it's current manifestation - Himself - utterly. He also wields a Zweihander, a sword larger than the Buster Blade, like a toothpick. To me, he is one of the most badass guys ever.
Also know as 'The Major', from the Ghost in the Shell series. She is technically a female, but she has been through so many bodies (shells), that it no longer matters. She is extremely intelligent in tactics, people, politics, and pretty much everything. Not only is she the commanding officer of Section 9, but when combining with an "artificial intelligence", she boosted her already considerable hacking skills, and made the definition of what it means to be human, even more gray. For me, she represents my dream of what humanity will become, and made me realize that my own body is essentially a shell to house my own ghost.
As the undisputed Queen of gaming, she has destroyed more aliens, and saved more worlds, than any other female in all of gaming, and for a while, people did not even know she was a she! (some people still don't know, but they have never played Metroid/heard of Metroid/stupid). She'll be my first tattoo, and if I ever have kids, her name will be somewhere in their's

Yeah that dude was awesome, when he did the thing, with the other thing, blew my mind.starfox444 said:
Jim Raynor
Just taught me to fight for what I find important.
Plus, he's easily one of the most badass men to ever walk the face of any planet he's ever been on.
Once Dragon Age 2 comes out, my first character will be dedicated to him
Raynor Hawke, here's to you.

For me its a character from a book series that I really hope to see a game of, but good it would have to be extremely well done or the makers would get lynched. The character is Richard Rahl from the Sword of Truth book series. Those books are made of win!
General Grievous. Most bad-ass bad guy I've ever seen.
A close second would have to be General RAAM from Gears of War.

Vito Scaletta. There was something about the stereotypical Italian Mafia guy that I really liked.
EDIT: And I also really liked "That Spoony Bard". (READ: Utter Sarcasm)

Mordin Solus of Mass Effect 2 due to a certain song and a few certain "pre-romantic cutscene" statements..
And Lightning of Final Fantasy XIII. Personality, outfit, whatever. I just can't forget her.

Garrus from Mass Effect, shows me that there's sometimes only evil ways to deal with evil people.
The character I'll never forget? The Elder God from the Legacy of Kain series, Tony Jay's voice is so iconic to me. I'll never forget how he tormented Raziel for centuries before his confrontation with Kain, and how after so long it's all come full circle back to the beginning. I'm actually kind of glad they won't be making another one, I heard a rumor a while back that Kain would have the ability to turn into a wolf. Ending the series at Defiance is the best possible decision imo.
I always expect him to be all "CONRAAAAD VERNERRRRR" and go charnging into the geth/collectors in ME2BlastedTheWorm said:
