Okay. Everyone got that? Manly. OOZING TESTOSTERONE. And then we get...
Chell is a *girl*. Come on people, read here. And stop voting for Dante. Tough, sure. Good fighter, fine. Manly and oozing testosterone? No. - J |

The top doesn't say they have to be most manly. Just hardest. Which... Yeah. I dunno. I still think Chell's pretty badass. And GLADos fills my qualification of being a hero, since she killed scientists. Lots, and lots, of scientists. |

Anonymous Source  Posts: 3 Joined: 13 Feb 2008 | To be truthful, I didn't read the majority of this thread simply because of mindless fanboy-ism, but I had to pitch in my two cents nonetheless. I offer up Lu Bu as a potential, simply from the fact he is an unlockable character, and thus can be played as a sort of protagonist.
Seriously, how many of your choices have entire contingents of armies simply flee with the cry of, * Dynasty Warriors (Sangokumusō) (1997) - PlayStation To unlock his ass, you have to embark on a most challenging of quests, to rack up a kill count worthy of making him blush ( note, this is next to impossible ) But it's not just the Dynasty Warriors series he's limited to either, this asshole jumps to other games. * In Warriors Orochi, Lu Bu serves Orochi as one of his top officers. In this crossover series between Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors, Lu Bu finally found a worthy challenger to fight him, Honda Tadakatsu. * In Capcom's Destiny of an Emperor for the NES Lü Bu appears as a character with the highest attack stat. In the game, the player is capable of recruiting him into Liu Bei's party albeit only temporarily. * Lü Bu is one of the fighters in the Neo Geo's World Heroes 2 Jet, although his name is instead "Ryofu," the Japanese pronunciation of his name. Continue pumping out the same four people though, Lu Bu is a colon-stomping badass, and knows who wins. He does. |

Anonymous Source Posts: 2 Joined: 13 Feb 2008 | After giving it a bit of thought, I have to agree with Monodiaboloco about the knight from Ghouls'n'ghosts being the biggest badass since he is driven by next to nothing but will fight on through hordes of enemies and countless traps with just taking a couple of hits being all it takes to put him in a grave. In spite of Ghouls'n'Ghosts,I personally would've gone with the main character from Earth Defence Force 2017, seriously, sure any badass demon decendant of Sparda can go and save the world and laugh his ass off when all tables are turned against him (I am talking about Dante if you don't get it). But someone who loses all his comrades in a fight after a few seconds and still manages to win even though all the shit around him is 10-100,000+ times his size and he only has a rocket launcher and a rifle to fight them all off. He also can level a whole block with a grenade is quite simply the badass. Sure, you can go with Goku since he can blow up a planet if he ever does a spirit bomb, or ryu cus he got flung into a wall and comes out swinging, or Big Boss since he will perform operation on himself without any painkillers on the spot while in combat, maybe even kratos just because he has been to hell and back and kills gods (you might as well give Ryu from Breath of Fire 2 credit for killing a god, and cloud from final fantasy for killing a person who made himself into a god, Ramzey in Final Fantasy Tactics just straight up goes into hell and kills the god of everything, Ryudo from Grandia II kills a god, hell, even the lil kids from the Golden Compass kill God.. point is god killing is nothing special), and saying Master Cheif is a badass is just a bad joke.. his suit is what is badass.. same with Samus from Metroid, Link is quite the badass too.. sure he gets hit alot by his enemies but when he killed Ganondorf in Wind Waker, I can't help but get chills, just a little kid fucking ramming that sword in his skull= HOLYSHIZZ. Bottom line is the heroes who decimate entire legions and are on the brink of being struck down by a slight touch and arn't blessed with incredible strength, or skills, or gear, or training are the ones who just bury the needle on the bad-ass-o-meter. |

Marco can get zombified and fight BETTER for doing it, and Jutah can take big fat lasers to the face that would make the BFG9000 feel impotent. |

Yeah but, the thing about that is, Master Chief is kitted out with some serious high tech armour that gives him super strength and some rather large jumping distances. Having this sort of abilities in a suit would make any old girly-man the confidence to act 'tough' and 'manly' just by wearing it (not to mention making them look a bit odd around the office or waiting for a bus). Just imagine how you would act if you could get a rechargeable energy shield off eBay or something. I vote Dynamite Headdy |

Muckraker  Posts: 237 Joined: 22 Jan 2008 | kain isn't exactly a hero i'd say, though he is a badass, mastercheif i disagree with on the bounds that not once does he wreck someone or just break their spirit, plus he seems so disinterested in what he's doing, same with gordon, if you don't enjoy what you do enough to laugh and make some wisecracks then you might as well be an accountant. i totally forgot about lu bu and i'm kinda amazed other people agree. lu bu is total hoss. |

Copy Clerk  Posts: 63 Joined: 20 Nov 2007 | I have to support Dante from DMC. in the opening cutscene of 1, he stands up, pulls a sword out of his own fucking chest cavity and slices an incoming mortercycle in half (and aparently he gets the ability to fight by rocking the fuck out in DMC 3). |
Pulitzer Laureate  Posts: 936 Joined: 27 Jan 2008    | You've yet to mention the ultimate hero: Captain Price's Moustache. From the moment they begin life (as peach fuzz), all moustaches yearn to be like him. That thing has survived mortars, Nazi machinegun fire, Uzi blasts, RPGs, and even a bridge collapse. That moustache deserves the Medal of Honor (or whatever the SAS equivalent is). |
Paperboy  Posts: 18 Joined: 15 Feb 2008 | You have all missed my favourite: Preator Zeratul. He led the cast-offs of his race back to the Protoss homeworld when the entire region (and conceivably, two species) was at the brink of destruction. Gravelly voice, love of the shadows, reluctant undertaking of his role, willingness to think outside the box when forming aliances, psyionic energy blades... was he missing anything at all that could have hindered his greatness or just made him cooler? The moment his obscured visage uttered the words "Mayhap o' Queen..." you knew that the final mission of StarCraft was going to be an absolute barn-stormer, especially when accompanied by the holy trinity of Raynor, Tassadar and Fenix. Let us not forget the expansion pack either, where he brought us the Dark Templar. They made the Zealots completely redundant, which is fantastic of course as your cannon-fodder unit should never be THAT expensive and time-consuming to build. To sum up: Hard as nails; cool as ice; solid as a rock; easy to integrate into your army. Oh, and the SAS/British Armed Forces equivalent of the Medal of Honour is the Victoria Cross. |

I think there's been a lot of good answers so far... Keep 'em coming. I've got several candidates.
The Companion Cube
Chell (Come on. She went through all that stuff, and, in my case, got shot quite a few times while looking around)
GLADos (Just because of her attitude.)
Duke Nukem
Max Payne
Serious Sam
My vote for number one, though...
That's for the older Dante. The one from DMC 2 and 4, I haven't played 1, so I dunno.
He's got all the badass...ness... Can turn into a demon, and looks damn cool doing it.
That and you kill the giant glob thing in DMC 2. Can't touch that.
