JC Denton-Deus Ex

Ransom-Hostile Waters: Antaeus Rising
"My name is Ransom."
"The last thing you'll see are the whites of my eyes!"
"Ha-ha, fuck you!"

Jefferson Clay-Independence War
"Clear the bridge."
"Would you dig up my grave?"
"I'll tell you, this is one odd navy boy. You don't get time off, even for being dead!"
"Did I say that? No. Only I am gonna play it like a computer - Stupid Dumb-ass questions in - stupid smart ass sarcastic remarks out. Now, if you ever manage to ask me a question which doesn’t insult my experience and intelligence, I daresay I’ll force a civil answer out of myself."

Gotta love Enric though...I'm surprised to find someone else who has played DBTS.
"Hah! Let's see you fight with no arms!"
"You hit lahk a KOBOLD!"

Pah, Snake is not even in the league of most of those. Indeed, he only made it into my sig banner because I needed to fill space.

HEATHEN!

Nice banner though. :D

What about "The Guy" a.k.a. Slater from GTA3?

Actually, I refer to the GTA3 guy as "Charlie", since he looks a lot like Charlie Sheen from "The Chase".

Anways... what about the Vault Dweller from Fallout? He (or she) was pretty fucking badass if you played right.

47, by far. Its impossible to reach a higher level of coolness.

Karen Sajak (Homeworld I & II)
She IS mission control, and the way she so calmly justifies torcher, piracy and genocide against the other half of her own dying race in the Gardens....

Bomberman - guy is imprisoned in a maze with people who only want to kill him and he bombards them, again and again. :P

Others.. maybe mr. 47 or Zeratul.

I think Kyle Katarn and John Mullins also both have to rate.

I think Gordon Freeman would be an honorable mention. He did only manage to take on a good chunk of Xen and nail one of the most powerful Triads, Nihilanth... so what if he's a geek :D

The Female Bad-Arses

Karen Sendak (Sorry about the previous mispelling)
Shodan-Ok, she's an AI
Samus-First fem bad ass in a computer game...

Gordon definately rates. I mean, for a geek-boy he did fucking well.

Enric is so the man, and DBTS was a cool game. I have the expansion, but was never able to find the "Curse pack".

So if we invited the Female Bad Asses and the Male bad asses together who would "Pair Up well"?

aside from the fact that Lara (Fem Bad ass wanna be) would be in serious trouble?

Lara and Solid Snake get together and fulfil no end of shitty fanboy fantasies.

Of course Garret & Willhiem would probably both aknowledge doing the Dungeon Siege Girl, hey she's from the evil empire of course she was easy, but a total money grubbing pain afterwards...

Joanna Dark seemed pretty bad-ass to me, though she seems less of a "bad-ass" and more of a "lean, fit, killing machine". Still, at the end of her first real mission, while leaping off the roof of a skyscraper into her ride, she spins in mid-air and takes two shot, and scored two kills.

I'll have to say Duke Nukem, he's just cool.

JC Denton, how many guys can keep fighting and moving with no legs and one arm?
