The Top Ten Badass Videogame Characters of All Time

[higgz614]

Marcus fenix

[partyboy81853]

Pretty good list. I might try to add Sam Fisher somewhere. Maybe Ryu from ninja gaiden, Kain from Blood Omen. Oh and the guy from GTA 3. Whats more badass than a protagonist who slaughters thousands of ppl and never utters a word?

[simmysteve1292]

GRRR meatle geeear

[RIPROKU]

I personally think Dante is cooler then kratos. guns, swords, lookin good, kills demons and SATAN!!! annnnnnnnnd unlike Kratos Dante never died....twice :p

[elipaul17]

The lack of wesker in this video disturbs me

[TheLockon00]

Kratos number one. Not debatable.

[SasukeSuperSayayin4]

I freaking trolled at "Aaaaaaaargh metal gear"

[SasukeSuperSayayin4]

I think Solid Snake should me number 1, and Kratos should be number 2

[Gusti203]

masterchief takes out an entire army of aliens

i would not say gordon freeman is better

[DantonGamer]

where's Zero?

[Dragonbornmatt]

@protoawsome Frank west is better than chuck Greene

[invincible1065]

EXCUSE ME!?!?! DANTE AS NUMBER 8!?!? find a video or rather play the first mission of devil may cry 3 then i can guarantee ul give him a second thought

[protoawsome]

WHAT THE HELL WHAT ABOUT TOP 5

1 Dovakiin

5 Chuck Greene

[MrSmb64maniac]

[Icickass530]

I'm sorry but desmond from assasins creed he's not bad, but how in gods name doyou put hom in front of dante. That's just likee teaseing bigfoot with beef jerky. Don't do it.

[iGotShelz]

Dante & Virgil from Devil May Cry. Commander Shepard from Mass Effect. Sam Fisher from Splinter Cell. Leon From Resident Evil. And finally Gordon Freeman from Half-Life.

[SasukeSuperSayayin4]

@iGotShelz Screw them, Solid Snake beats them all ;D

[iGotShelz]

@SasukeSuperSayayin4 Nah not the two devil hunters!!

[ranger24ff]

Not that Nero isn't a badass

[coderlyoko1]

[ITSOVER9000ish]

I'll fuck with Yoshi all I want to! Yoshi SUCKS!

[gmarshall1996]

DNT DISS SETHOROTH HE IS THE MOST BADDASS OPPONENT EVER for me anyway

[ITSOVER9000ish]

@gmarshall1996 I believe there's a word for someone like you. What is it again? Oh yeah! FANBOY!

[elephantboy24]

[mikkivlogs]

[thebowserone1]

[ArmanyteGX]

Demise... I know Skyward Sword came out after this video, but seriously he has taken final Zelda bosses to a whole new level!

[Nerdink123]

didn't you steal that first line about mad world from screwattack?

[KenzoCobra]

Dante is NR 1

[SasukeSuperSayayin4]

@KenzoCobra Nooo, Solid Snake is number 1

[ThePikachupichu]

or does it mean bad

[ITSOVER9000ish]

@ThePikachupichu It means "totally super freakin' awesome as hell!"

[ThePikachupichu]

does badass mean good

[9MovingTarget8]

Halo music, best video game music/sountracks of all time IMO. Chief only 3? needs 1

[weDahGamerz]

what about ness or link? they're kids.

[DanielL5583]

...a HELL of a lot of fan-drawn yaoi. Ugh, talk about over-obsessed.

So yeah. Sephiroth sucks. Hope you enjoy your rage, fan girls.

[DanielL5583]

Ok. I actually agree with these guys in saying Sephiroth sucks. Not only does he suck as a villain, but he sucks as a character in general.

Both Sephiroth and Cloud have pretty much no positive emotion AT ALL. And Sephiroth's villainy only came about because of JENOVA. JENOVA is much more of a villain, and actually LOOKS imposing.

Also, Sephiroth is a walking example of the Oedipus complex. He has an obsession with wanting to be with JENOVA, and... He features in a HELL of a lot of fan-drawn ya

[SuperMarioGirl24]

samus should have been higher. just sayin

[bombfighter13]

Where is Soap MacTavish!?

[TifaxCloudForever]

what about tifa lockheart and cloud

[The5damage]

Max Payne

[xlPuppetxSasorilx]

GRAAAH METAL GEEEAR! lol

[MegaAzelf77]

not mad about it but instead of tanya and duke i would put frank west and link. and sephy does suck. finnally another person that agrees with me

[The7thName]

You think sephioth sucks ? you will never, NEVER get a f***ing sub from me !!!

But still cool video

[SasukeSuperSayayin4]

@The7thName He has 4852 subscribers, do you think he gives a fuck about your sub?

[ProGamer1134]

The whole commentary made me genuinely LOL.

But, I think there's someone who should've been in this list.

Ryu Hayabusa from Ninja Gaiden. Nothing wrong with the list, I completely respect it, I just think he deserved a place.

[RenegadeVenom]

wait refield i mean redfield chris redfield

[RenegadeVenom]

WHERES SCORPION FROM MORTAL COMBAT?

IDK I NEVER PLAYED NO MORE HEROES BUT WHERES TRAVIS TOUCHDOWN?

WHERES LEON KENNEDY AND CHRIS REFIELD FROM THE RESIDENT EVIL SERIES?

WHERE BATMAN?

WHERES THE PRINCE OF PERSIA?

[Ninjutsuist]

Yoshi NOT BADASS?! does anyone give a second thought that he actually eats his enemies and then shits them out again in eggs? Cause that's badass!!

[TheJazzer94]

There are many missing characters in this list. An obvious niticement would be Link, but also Travis Tochdown from No More Heroes or Zero from Megaman. Also I think Kratos is pretty OVERRATED. Seriously, all he went through just to kill himself in the end? Thas't stupid...

[jinkyum888]

@TheJazzer94 someone didn't  watch the end credits....

[Fixable100]

they don't even play halo and they know master chief is a BADASS!!

[IMMAEDEDDNEDDY]

notice how almost all of these games involve guns

[HyruleKing12988]

To anyone who wants to badmouth "Nintendo fanboys" as you call us... We respect the classics. The games that started it all. Mario, Donkey Kong and The Legend of Zelda. Y'know, Shigeru Miyamoto, the man who sparked the revolution that has as a result given us the awesome games we have today. Now, I'm a fan of LoZ, and Link is pretty fucking awesome, but when it boils down, he may make Ezio take an arrow to the knee, but Ezio would drop him off a building. Or shoot him with poison darts...

[silverstar8001]

lol pac man wtf jokes

[detrickbrown]

5:10 MEGADETH duke nukem

[nazikiller1941]

that was altair not desmond genius

[SonicsonyZ5]

Kratos was super fucking

[Chelsea7246]

"He could be black, white, yellow or green" lmao wtf :P

[Morrowindur]

ARTHAS IS NUMBER 1!!!!!!!!!!

[FilmParodys]

This is how mush SEPTHIROTH sucks, he got killed by a 14 year old....DUH!!!!!

[killerunderdog10]

YOU ASSHOLE! SEPTHIROTH TAKES ER! than Kratos at number 2 :P

[danie2332123]

Kratos thee most baddass character of all time!!!... nuff said

[brianrw0414]

Gordon for the win with a crowbar

[Sinner1102]

Solid ARMIN SHOULD BE 1- One.

[raio508]

Well, and were is Lara Croft, Cloud Strife, Link, Drake, Fox and MARCUS FENIX?!?!?

[timfromacounting]

why wasn't tank dempsy in the list

[deathrider714]

KRATOS FTW!

[BigBoss0694x]

[mariokart5609]

N1ntenOwned where is the top 10 best n64 games of all time minus zelda at!

[sephirothD2]

Nice list, but It would have been even nicer with John Marston in it.

[ravenbloodfang]

[TheMicoGirl]

Duhhh..... No Link....

[SeriousHedgeHogCo]

@N1ntenOwned 10. Yawn but she is decent 9. He is awesome but where the he'll is Travis touchdown 8. Who doesn't like Dante those people really need Dante 7. His name is altiar but it his ancestor and where is ezio 6. He should be higher 5. Never heard of her don't care 4. He pwns all 3. Well he is awesome 2. He is ok maybe I need to play metal geeeaar 1. He is awesome btw Jake I suggest add these guys shadow the hedgehog,serious Sam, doom guy, and ratchet and jak oh and don't forget zero and fr

[SeriousHedgeHogCo]

@Sonicrocks34561 I agree maybe they think that he is emo

[Sonicrocks34561]

where the hell is Shadow the Hedgehog?! NOW THAT IS A BADASS!

[TheLPfan2000]

Hmm...Tanya is a pretty badass RTs unit...My first being the firebat....

[jim8573]

that guy from metro 2033 is fucking badass niko from gta 4 is badass reznov,nikolai from bo and waw price and soap are. some cold mofos ?

[xxxspartan117xxxable]

METAL GEAR

[HFLanciaStratos]

No Marcus Fenix, no care.

[hinaruto14]

btw most of the clips you showed for Dante were actually Nero from DMC 4

[Yokillayo]

Masen got number 1? You think he's more badass than characters like kratos and snake? really guys? lol

[ArmieofMechana]

I must ask. Where is War? He is just as badass as Kratos.

[rubikfan1]

kratos for president!

[lorin1996]

where da fuck is dovhakin!!

[exkuhpid]

WHERE IS SONIC?!?!

[odeonken]

@exkuhpid

Sonic is cool and I like him too but badass? Not really!

He can knock lots and LOTS of robots out yeah but he hangs out with many friends and he respects them all and even some of his enimies. I'd rather say Shadow because he prefers to fight alone and he's the only character in the franchise who used real weapons and drives a cool motorbike.

(before you say Big drives one too, that is actualy a moped and it looks like crap)

[exkuhpid]

@odeonken ummmmmm ok (iv'e NEVER played a sonic game) O.O

[odeonken]

@exkuhpid

You...

asking where Sonic the Hedgehog is in this countdown...

and telling you never played a Sonic the Hedgehog game at all...

That's dumb!

[exkuhpid]

@odeonken ikr? yeah...

[Akantorz12]

Solid Snake

[metaldoom3]

Pacman is the greatest badass of all time!

[neoman289151]

Nero wouldn't work....

He's a pussy-whipped whiny little emo.

[hirosese]

Gay Link is obviously the best fuck you Link number 1

[XtremeConditioning]

Woah! What happened to Simon Belmont? He kills Dracula, goes out of his way to revive him... ONLY for the simple purpose of killing him AGAIN! He should've been an honorable mention.

[falloutboy97100]

Where is Yoshi?

[gamergustavo]

YA FINALLY SOMEONE AGREES WITH ME SEPHIROTH SUCKS!!!

[DanteKami1]

METAL GEEEAR!

[key099able]

why havent you post any new videos, full time job or something

[mzrickyd]

you dont FUCK with YOSHI!

[0Darkshine0]

I know i sound dumb saying this but WTF!?!? You guys put a shot of Nero as dante and Nero is the one with the rev sword(Red Queen) who is bodysurfing!DMC fans get mad when you confuse the badass Demon killing Dante with teeny tiny Nero!!!!

[emmanuelescobedo]

Top 5 people

5.The main character in no more heros (he f**king talks kinda lika nerd I dunno)

4.li kang (no questions)(mortal kombat series)

3.DR.ritofen (black ops)

baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

FU---------------ING MASONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN (BLACK OPS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNN­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDD SN!!AKE

[captainsunder009]

As if you don't put in Ryu. You only put on people with guns. This guy can take out people with his fists alone and is a nomad with a badass philosophy.

[TheBarcaFUN]

wher is sam fisher??? and personal fav is dante*-*

[Leishmaniasisably]

10:51 Sorry Final Fantasy fans but Sephiroth does kind of suck.

[AnimatedCardboard]

if youtube was a game the bad ass boss at the end would be Rick Astley :D

[deathshadow2492]

While I do agree that Samus does belong on this list she deserves to be a bit higher. Not much of a Duke Nukem fan, heard his recent game was a FAlL bomb. Good list.

[WrestleManiaX7Fan]

10. Samus 9. Master Cheif 8. Sephiroth 7. Lara Croft 6. Dante 5. Kratos 4. Cloud 3. Duke Nukem 2. Solid Snake 1. Gordan Freeman [You Guys Are Right He Definitely Derseves The #1 Spot]

[DiscipleOfAnakin313]

The Executor from Empire at War is way better the Tanya. Nice job Jake but Sonic from Brawl should b on the list as well he's pretty epic and i'd bet u'd agree

[Caleb1upman]

Don`t f*** with Yoshi hilarious XD

[BestJerkerInTheWorld]

"aaah metal gear" lol

[Shadow11614]

i thought simon belmont from castlevania should be on here

[XTatortot]

I think Rubi from Wet should be in there somewhere.

[XTatortot]

I died a little when I read "Awesomesauce"

[dragonpro3]

the list was alright...i was just glad that Assassin's Creed got on there ^_^

[TheSonic497]

yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh,­Gordon Freeman#1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[motts2roc]

not a list if Lu Bu isnt number 1

[Aaron4444444]

What about Starkiller and Alex Mercer???? Some of these guys are LAME

[D3vilD0gXIII]

Fightmaster isn't a Marine. He's in the National Guard. Figured I'd point that out, since I'm in the Marines.

[lanscaper11234]

Asshole!!!! Sephiroth Rocks you dick head!

[halo3xp3rt]

they dont even play Halo, but master chief is nr.3 anyway :P what number would he be if they play the game i wonder?

[sunshine50akaJakoby]

dude shepard from mass effect. fighting the reapers a.k.a the things that have killed everything ever. they even blew him up out of the original normandy, sufficated him in space, burned him through the atmosphere of a planet and he survived to fuck ms. lawson. boom

[LeonidasMGO]

@sunshine50akaJakoby Solid Snake/Old Snake>Shepard.

[benderrocks01]

ripper roo is a badass kangaroo

[ScReWaTtAcKeD]

Where the fuck is Isaac Clarke?

[ShadowNinja1995]

She had a reason why to cry....When she saw suddenly saw Ridley,her childhood memories of Ridley killing everyone and her fear of him came back

[Mannetasi]

@ShadowNinja1995 Team Ninja has no excuse for that ridiculous moment. I mean she has killed Ridley about 4 times before(not to mention all the other bosses and areas she has pwned)and did she freeze in horror in the other games? No she was all like: You again -.- *bam bam bam bam bam bam bam*

Well with that said the cutscene and the battle and the whole game itself was still great.

[ShadowNinja1995]

@Mannetasi I'm really tired of people like you always saying 'Samus is heartless, Samus has no emotion, she never is this,she never is that.' She a human being the last time I checked...I thought is was a good idea that they gave her some emotion for the first time..Plus, RIdley is her greatest fear, and she never expected him to return just like that...I mean come on, she killed him, then all of a sudden, he's back to life? WOuld you be freaked that your arch foe was back to life?

[Mannetasi]

@ShadowNinja1995 Dont take it the wrong way dude. I too think giving Samus some emotion was a good idea.

I have no problem with her getting shocked for about 3 seconds but she just stood there. Like i said after all the the other things she has gone though in the other games not to mention this isnt the first time she has seen Ridley fully revived again.

I cannot accept that she just stands there doing nothing at all and allowing Ridley to grab her.

[ShadowNinja1995]

@Mannetasi O....Sorry about that...I was kinda upset about her letting Ridley grab her...But you do realize Samus had always been scared of him? Other than that, I wish Yoshi was on this list :D

[chosenone234]

Asuras from asuras wrath

that is all

[markcalderon71299]

**** YOU JOHNS BEEN THROUGH MORE THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE READ THE BOOK HE DESERVES TO NO. 1!

[markcalderon71299]

yoshi is awesome NUFF SAID!

[pbzwriter]

wheres eddie riggs from brutal legend

[ilovedrawingfoxes]

WHERE IS LINK.

[37061068907]

i must say freeman does not deserve to be in this list

[AngryOrso]

Number one if by far sam fischer.

[Punkette43]

intos epic bro

[TheChipmunkGamer]

The New Bankers in Assassins Creed Brotherhood are those FREAKING GUITARISTS!!!! I SWEAR IVE KILLED LIKE 7 OF THEM!!!!!

[BIGbangman4759]

WHERE THE FUCKING HELL IS ALEX MERCER!?!?!?!?

[GalaxyEdgeStudios]

metal geeeer, metal geer GRRRRRRRRRRRR METAL GEER! STFU! metal geer.....

[nunomasterboy]

You should put War from game DarkSiders he kills angels and that stuff, have cool weapons, cool horse, is stong but angyl for me he is tottely badass

[Legolassytrio]

final fantasy has jost its edge any way my top 6 would be

6:mario because he beats dragons

5:yoshi because he eats fire and shoots fire out his mouth when he eats a red turtle shell

4:kirby becaus he can eat everything and is brave enough to beat lots of people twice his size

3:strider he fights peope with his uber sword

2:simon belmont he kills drakula,frankenstien and those god damn muther fucking madusa heads

1:contra guys they kill aliens with no shirts

[FIREBIRDDDD]

Where's Johnny Gat!?

[psychosite1000]

Wheres The Guys From Contra!The also kill aliens, oh and btw THEY HAVE NO SHIRTS!!!!!

[psychosite1000]

Wheres nathan drake!

[Megashehri]

WTF! where's jhon marston?

[palindinX]

You guy might not know who i'm talking about, But i think Conker from Bad fur Day should be on this list. He's just a normal red squirrel who got lost from a Hangover....But now he has to fight in a war against deadly teddy bears, Zombies, a Giant piece of Shit. He becomes a billionare in less than 10 seconds AND he knows how to do "The Matrix". Ask yourself, How many animals you know that can do this? Conker 100% Badass in my book! (And he also drinks which make him 110% more badass) :)

[EpicMexican6713]

What happened to Alex mercer from prototype???

Plus what about starkiller from the force unleashed???

[AgentZombieMan]

no mortal kombat characters?

[goodyoj]

Wheres scorpion from mortal kombat?

[Davidgon100]

kratos should of been #1

[kolby47]

Lara Croft... 

[ShamanTheHedgehog]

2:25 since no more heroes! =3

[YATVZ]

Metal Gear have so much good games!

[ptkaden]

HENRY FROM NO MORE HEROS!!!!!

[falloutfan335]

[steffimarie808]

ALEX MASON

[smellmelive]

Um.. Where the hell is Sheppard?

[Splish56]

DUKE NUKEM!

[darkyoshi9000]

I'd put mario on this list. he justs walks in to a area and just steps on everyone their!
