Most badass dude in video games. CONT
 

Had to change the title a bit just to suit my own taste and I'm a big fat monkey turd.

But after reading through the entire previous thread, I was shocked to learn that no one mentioned THE man. Not this guy. Nor that guy. But this man.

Of course I mean Corporal DooM Marine.

No lines. No smart remarks. Just a shotgun and a big barrel of manly grunts and groans and testicles the size of watermelons. Hell, he went to hell and back how many times? 1, 2, 3...4, 5...Hell, I'm from Texas, we can't count that high. And he couldn't jump nor look up or down! That's a bad man right there! He looked straight ahead all the time! That is one fearless prick. And Doom 3? Jesus, have you seen some of the shots from that? It's like Hellraiser mixed with The Exorcist mixed with the good chunks of the Bible.

He get's my toast. Semper Guiness, Corporal Marine.

Finn, it might do you some good to re-read that thread because I'm pretty sure I mention Flint McTargen(the name of the Doom Marine). Or maybe that was in another thread on this board.

By the way, what's the previous thread? "Most Manly Character"? "Coolest Character"?

Arthur - Ghost's and Goblins, Ghouls and Ghosts, and super Ghouls and Ghosts. Those game are impossible. Therefore anybody who can beat that game is worthy of praise. http://www.thetoque.net/021008/ghosts.htm

Badass? Definitely Samus. No explanation necessary.

Dude, I think there is some explanation needed -- Are you aware of exactly what Samus is covering up under that suit of armor? Maybe you want to go back and reread the thread title again.

Sorry, Otaku. As much as you love to prove me wrong it seems...Corporal DooM Marine was not mentioned in the thread "Manliest Video Game Character". I checked once, then twice when I saw your post. Feel free to check again or edit one of your posts. And if you're going by the books...His name is Flinn Taggert and his sidekick is named Arlene or something as I recall, may be mistaken on that one since it has been a few years since I read them. But in the game, he doesn't have a name. He's "Our Hero" AKA "DooM Guy" AKA "Marine" AKA etc.

EDIT: Samus ain't a dude. She's a dudette.

I would say Kefka, just because I have a strong notion to him being evil, but he wasn't badass persay, he wore makeup. I'd have to go with Prince Arthas from Warcraft 3. He betrayed everyone kinda, slaughtered people because they were infected by zombie-poison, and death didn't even stop him.

I second Arthas. he was like the ultimate Paladin-> Blackguard I've seen in a while.

Um... I forgot about the dude part of the title. I thought it read 'most bad ass character in a game'.

Yeah, she's... uh... a bad ass dudette.

Kain, hands down. Raziel was pretty cool too, albeit a bit on the whiny side, but Kain simply kicked ass. A non-angsty vampire. Whod'a thunk it?
