It was inevitable...

I vote for Samanosuke Akechi from Onimusha...he was just a badass hands down.

Cloud Strife

Sephiroth is cool. Cloud is not.

Sorry dude but Cloud is just overrated.

[Raider87]

Sephiroth is way more overrated than Cloud...

Win.

The man effing pushed a rocket out of his way in the books. I think that certainly calls for a win.

But Pandora has the pure power of darkness on her side. Therefore she is beyond win.

[Chthonic]

I give you the ultimate video-game hero:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v461/outfoxed/LeftPaddle.jpg

That's right, none other than Mr. Left Paddle himself, staunch defender of humanity from white square thingies, and all-round philanthrophist and guardian of freedom. (Not to be confused with the Right Paddle, who is an evil fascist bastard).

Raiden- MGS2- I don't care what anyone says, he was badass and carried the story for easily one of the best games ever made
Solid Snake- MGS- um duh?
Squall Leonhart- FFVIII- **** Cloud

[Tendoza]

Freeman or Snake

Both badasses, but without any of that "GRAAAGH LETS KILL THOSE MOFOS!!!" *bites head off kitten*

[Kang_Zircon]

My favorite hero is probably Roger Wilco of the Space Quest series. The unlikely, underdog type heroes are always my favorite. Plus Space Quest is just hilarious.

Finally some FFVIII love on these forums.

Solid Snake was badass, Raiden was not.

This whole page right here? Yeah. I'm having an über nerdgasm. Lovin' it.

Squall Leonhart- FFVIII- **** Cloud

Raiden and Squall? Might as well toss Tidus into that list and get it over with.

Allow the phail to come full circle, if you will.

[Zidane]

Dude, Squall is totally awesome. And he doesn't need a giant sword like Cloud to make up for what he doesn't have.

[Kutsic]

Actually I really like Tidus. I think he and Squall are two of the better FF heroes. And I also actually really like Cloud, I just don't think he's as cool as Squall.

And I'll never understand why anyone doesn't like Raiden, without him, MGS2 would've sucked.

Tidus is a little *****... Squall and Cloud are the best FF characters ever

MGS2 did suck.
I said it.

[DShiz1029]

Raiden was kinda ****...MGS2 was lame. MGS1 all the way. MGS3 was o.k.

[Zidane]

Best thing about MGS1: Psycho Mantis.

[DShiz1029]

Mantis: You like meeeeen!
Snake: What!? You can see into my mind?!
Mantis: No...
Snake: F*ck...




Kudos to whoever can guess where that came from...

Metal Gear Awesome

[Saltines]

MGS1 and MGS3 were badass.

Anyone try to beat The End with just a sniper rifle? No hardware to help find him?
It's fun.

Metal Gear Awesome

K *hands you kudos*, good job! Those guys who do the Awesome cartoons are geniuses.

[Xzyliac]

I'd like to add the entire Harmonix gang. Wish I had one big overview pic of the whole company.

Honorable Specifics:
Helen McWilliams (of course) just for being awesome
Sean Bapstie
Matt Moss
The art guy (sorry forgot his name)
Whoever came up with all those sexy, sexy, animations
And Alex for co-founding the damn thing
