  • Snake has a weakness, when you're fighting him just yell 'Hey, there goes Raiden!' Just watch as he blushes and gets really embarrassed, then tries to convince anyone watching that the whole episode never took place and we should just forget it. Use that time to sneak away.

    Did you just accuse solid snake of being a homosexual?  Ahem...have we forgotten Maryl?  Or that chick from MGS3?  I realize that MGS3 was "Big Boss" and not technically Solid Snake...but come on.

    Your argument is like a two legged dog with an eating disorder...weak and unbalanced.

  • No, I was implying that the second game was so embarrasing it would actually make Solid Snake blush, and that every effort would be spent to retcon it out of existance.



    Kind of like Highlander 2...which coincidently enough starred Michael Ironsides as the villain.



    It's a vicious circle I tell you.

    The only thing embarassing about MGS 2 was the plot...the gameplay was spot on.

    Sam Fisher. He has all the bad-assery of Solid Snake, but the voice of Michael Ironsides. That's a one-two punch of video game character goodness.

    I agree. His voice is completely and totally bad-ass. Never heard anything better fitting.

    But what a plot! I actually laughed out loud towards the end there. Also I hate Raiden with a blinding passion (how can you ruin a perfectly good name with that character). I believe he had no place whatsoever in the series and was just an attempt to put a stereotypical Japanese anime hero into Solid Snake's place.



    But yes, damn fine gameplay :)

    I've never thought of him as an attempt to put an anime character into it, but I suppose you're right.  I didn't enjoy playing as Raiden very much, the only redeeming value that he had was his flip that he did.  I think that the concept of taking you away from Snake and using Snake as more of a side character was a good idea for that particular game, but they should have made the new guy more of a bad ass, not some little sissy with long flowing blonde hair.  I think that the plot was just one of those things where they tried to do too much, and they tried to make it too convoluted.  The overall story of "the patriots" is a good idea, the execution just wasn't there.

    To all the Link haters... its not a skirt, its a tunic. And even if it was a skirt, whats so wrong with wearing a skirt? Its appropriate given the world he lives in. He also has the Master Sword, which offsets any gay vibes he might emanate from a psuedo-skirt.

    He also gets all the babes... especially the Zora in Ocarina.

    Reminds me of something from Latin in high school. I should point out that Romans wore togas and that sort of thing. A man had been exiled to somewhere in Europe from Rome (the name eludes me right now because its late), and he wrote to his wife in Rome saying "I cant believe this place! The people are all savages... they are all wearing pants!" The reason being that savages were the only ones wearing pants. Anywho I dont know how that is relevant.

    LOCKE from FF6, his persona, leadership and skills make him one of the best.

    Hotsuma from Shinobi. That guy was just bad ass.

     

    This is a sequence of characters intended to produce some profound mental effect, but it has failed.

    I'd also like to give out a few runners up here:
    Revan (If that counts)
    Cole Train, Baby!
    Link (Who isn't a shemale, he just shows off the fact that he can kick ass in a skirt)
    Snake (Gotta give him props)
    Vader (He's gotta be in a Video game, right?)
     

    Truthfully i argee with this person Samus is Kick Ass

    #1: Samus

    #2: Cole Train

    #3: MasterChief

    #4 Link

    There is only one elite video game character out of all of them in my opinion.

    Ryu Hayabusa

    Rikimaru from Tenchu: The most realistic video game ninja ever (Ryu is actually a Shiniobi so he don't count)

    He may not be a classic, but I'm gonna use my vote on Kratos, the man killed a god!

    Ahh...Ninja Gaiden...good choice...But I'm afraid he does not get my vote because he had a chance at the hot chick Rachel, and never took it (instead he turned into a bird and flew away) Though I guess Solid Snake never hooks up either huh...dangit....I lose.

    And Riki, I would vote for Rikimaru, except the Tenchu games have all sucked, minus the first one.

    I vote Dante, from Devil May Cry...no contest. He defines the word "badass" In fact, I think the inventor of the word badass actually was a  scientific genious and he (though little is this known) invented the time machine. He travelled into the future to see what it was like, and he stumbled upon the game devil may cry. He saw the main character and said spontaneously said to himself  "omg hes a badass"...,thus inventine the word "badass" He went back in time to spread the concept of being a "badass", but the time period in which he was living in couldn't except the word "badass" as they flagged it as inappropriate.....so he was shot, no one ever to find out of his other invention "the time machine"

    1) Kaine from Blood Omen (the most badass vampire I have ever seen)

    2)Hayabusa (beautiful game, great combat)

    3) Samus (as stated before, can't go wrong with a good-lookin' chick in a power suit)

    4) Link (He did seem a bit on the fruity side in SC, but other than that is good, and it's not a skirt, just a long shirt.)

    5) Carmine (not for really any reason, just because someone brought up Cole Train)
