Most baddass Video game character EVER!

While I admit the last time I made a thread along these lines it didn’t turn out so well. However! ever the optimist I be I’m restarting it with a new spin.

Post an image of who you think is the most baddass video game character, hero or villain, I don’t care and you must of course say why you think he/she/it is the greatest ever.

Starting off I present Captain Gabriel Angelos from Dawn of War

Why you ask, simple it’s because he is an eight foot tall avatar of death with centuries of experience in the fine art dishing out pain and has faced everything from Greater Daemons to thousand year old super-psychers and to top it all of he is a tactical genius capable of commanding everything from a squad to the entire chapter. his very motto shows how baddass he is “I fear no evil for I am fear incarnate”

compare that to a civvie in an garish orange suit and a man with a mere decade of combat experience

p.s. anybody who posts either the one free man or the chief will get screamed at. I really don’t want another whinging fest about which is better.

Duke Nukem

Agreed, best line ever: It’s time to kick ass and chew bubblegum, but I’m all outta gum.

:smiley:

Take your pick. All evil geniuses are Badass.

This. A thousand times.

Badass? I’d have to say Duke Nukem.
Although his series has been all but forgotten by today’s up and coming generation of gamers (not to mention his most recent game is in developmental purgatory), He still had the solid steel balls to be the only First person shooter Protagonist to have quotes that were, without a doubt, some of the most foul-mouthed for the time.
“Always bet on Duke”

:wink:

Sephiroth.

You pathetic swine, that line belongs to Rowdy Roddy Piper.

Watch “They Live”.

If you have seen her mind you would know @_@

I just loved playing this guy when the game came out for the PS1. It was so frickin awesome.

Harsh.

Yeah, except the middle guy… and the guy on the left… oh and the woman.

What is wrong with you people? This is a HL forum.

Can’t say I’ve played more than 10 minutes of a Duke Nukem game.

My favorite video game character was Harold from Fallout 1 & 2 (not Fallout 3, he lost all his awesomeness). He was funny.

Haha, I don’t think Freeman is badass at all. :fffuuu:

Also: RIP AND TEAR

Freeman doesn’t compare.

Oooh, I still have that box with the original game and book in it… Back in the day when PC games came in slightly over sized boxes.
