My Top Ten Badasses in Gaming
By SirBoomstick on November 29, 2009, 2:08 am
Badasses. You are not a badass. Neither are your parents. Neither am I (I'm just a modest guy in real life who's trying to be cocky on the internet). If we were badasses, then god wouldn't have invented fiction. And in fiction we find all the men who make us take a look in the mirror and ask ourselves, "...Damn. Where did I go wrong?" Now I know full well that there's a ScrewAttack Top 10 List of Coolest Characters, so I'm just gonna go ahead and pull a Stuttering Craig and say "This is my list, not yours! I can do whatever the hell I want!" so I'd appreciate it if you don't compare my list with the one I mentioned. And because this is my list, prepare for some sleeper picks, and please note that it's strictly for characters who made their first appearance in a game. So here's my debut ScrewAttack list, Top 10 List of characters who make you grow beards just by mentioning their names. This is SirBoomstick's Top 10 Badasses in Gaming.
10 (Tie).


Before I move on, allow me to take the time to say "**** LUCARIO!"

Because I was born in '91, I was brought into the gaming scene past the glory days of the SNES, so I've only known about Castlevania for about a year, thanks to Virtual Console. I have played some of the newer Castlevania games for the DS, but I was disappointed to find out that they're far too similar to Metroid, and thanks to Sir James Rolfe, I now know what the problem is, but I want to talk about Konami's original medieval badass. Now Simon is on this list because I am a real sucker for medieval lore (keep an eye out for more later in this list), whether it be character, settings, or simply a mere similarity, I can be captivated. Simon Belmont is basically Indiana Jones born back in the 1600s and I love it. The only motivation Simon has for ripping Dracula limb from limb is basically because it's just his job and he accepts it just like it's a day in the life, no love interest (not counting the Haunted Castle arcade), no reward (except for renown), just because it has to be done. Simon Belmont... the Vampire Killer (I know, I suck at these).

Probably the most hardcore badass in that galaxy far, far away. In the Knights of the Old Republic series HK-47 is the most Dark Sided character if you yourself are not playing on the Dark Side, and boy does it show. Every other panel in a conversation with another NPC, he'll be asking if he can kill them, he calls people 'meatbags' just because it pissed off Darth Malak at some point, and he has some really entertaining stories about his kill count. In my opinion, he's the best non-Jedi party member of the group. And his badassery goes up even more when you restore your content for KotOR 2 and run around a droid factory killing greenish pussified versions of this guy. My second favourite Star Wars character, but my favourite Star Wars badass, HK-47.

Another pick born from the almighty Bioware. Whether you choose to be a Paragon or Renegade within Mass Effect, this guy (or gal, whatever your preference is) will always be a badass. Whether it's gunning down some poor bastard or smacking down an obnoxious reporter, Shepard is a badass. Because Bioware is notorious for having you create your own characters, Commander Shepard is basically you being a badass. So... congratulations, you just made the number four spot on my top ten list. Armed to the teeth and ready for anything, Commander Shepard.

Prepare for a shocker
IT'S... NUMBER ONE!

Well I hope my first blog to this site was at least satisfactory. I am well aware that I left out many more fan favourites, but this is just my own opinion. I would appreciate your comments and I hope you enjoyed my list. If that's not the case, I'm prepared for your hate mail. Thank you now, bye-bye.

But that's not anything against you, just a way I have of thinking, but great list none the less.
