Top 10 Coolest Game Characters

What no Gordon Freeman, Duke Nukem,Lara Croft or Samus Aran?
They're cooler then anyone on that list except for Solid Snake.

I think this list is more about popularity and not actual coolness

SNAKE!!!!!!!!!!!

Why is Cloud on this list? He's a little emo bitch! What parts of that are cool?

Solid Snake as NO.1? That's pretty cool. Glad to see the White Wolf also made it.

Pikachu? Sora? Definitely children.....definitely.

Where's Gordan Freeman?!

Where the F'ck is Duke Nukem at? :(

aww...i dont really like most of them...

Yuri Lowell!

I agree with the anon at 16:49, though not with his list.

MASTER CHIEF SHOULD BE #1!!!111111 (I kid)

My personal list is a top 20.

and Ryu ????

that picture creeps the fuck out of me

There are still people who think Sonic is cool???

In no particular order:
- Akuma/Gouki (Street Fighter)
- Dan Hibiki (Street Fighter)
- Duke Nukem (Duke Nukem)
- Solid Snake (Solid Snake)
- Sarevok (Baldur's Gate)
- Minsc (Baldur's Gate)
- Saber (Fate Stay Night)
- Agrias Oaks (Final Fantasy Tactics)
- Cidolfus Orlandeau (Final Fantasy Tactics)
- Yoshimitsu (Tekken)

Ok, Cloud was strong, but I think Squall has him beat on the cool/collected badass scale.

Lone wolf attitude, leather pants and jacket, and gunblade... that is textbook cool.

But Naked Snake (Big Boss) still wins the badass award by me.

Where the fuck is Dante, he is one of the coolest characterts ever, hes so cool....

This is not a real list.....

FFVII FTW!!!! Best RPG ever!!

"The last Metroid is in captivity. The galaxy is at peace."

I might be a somewhat hardcore fan of the Metroid series and thus a bit biased, but the fact that Mario, Pikachu and Sonic is in top 10 on a coolest game characters list while Samus Aran is not is incomprehensible to me.

EWWW Sora.
Now that he's voted as the coolest AGAIN, Square-Enix will opt to release another annoying Play Arts Action Figure.

So is Cloud Strife. -_-

Is Dragon Quest such a crap series that the coolest character from it is a monster?

Wait a second......where's Cool Spot?

7 from this top 10 list above dun seems any "cool" to me....
Snake is cool , Yuri Lowell is cool , Cloud is cool ( at least his AC ver is cool , the FFVII game's ver is not )

the rest...i think those like Amaterasu , Sonic , Slime and Pikachu should belong to "adorable" lol

Sora , Mario , Link are not adorable and yet not cool as well . Those readers really should have a reflect on what the word "cool" and "adorable" mean -_-

My list :
Sephiroth
Vincent Valentine
Dante
Vergil
Yuri Lowell
Ryu Hayabusa
Bayonetta

Well, at least I agree with Yuri and Snake.

The only reason they keep putting mario in any list is because
He was the pioneer of gaming, I mean kudos
2 him for starting a worldwide legacy, but I don't think
He should belong on top ten, no offense, really,
But I don't think a plunger is that cool, still love his games though
Thanks MARIO!!!!!! U mushroom eating freak, in a good way though

Link first please

where's my boy tonberry.
motherfucker will cut you

needs more tidus

"with the list displaying all the taste and discernment that could reasonably be expected of a mob of impressionable schoolboys." - This article is suprisingly accurate... WTF is wrong with these people?

I like how the article clearly looks down on the reader's choices yet you fucks are just as bad

score one for Ammy, a surprising addition

Is this the cool list or the boring and predictable?

i think it was list of the gayest characters...

Except Solid Snake,all others are a bunch of sh*t just came out of Nintendo's an*s...and Sony's.

Japanese taste are definetly weird.

Snake? SNAKE? SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!!

SEPHIROTH???!!!

Only about 3 of the names on that list could qualify as cool.

Beyond the Grave from Gungrave is the coolest game character!
Fucking cool outfit and weapon design!

Duke from tales of Vesperia is a pretty cool guy... He's all mysterious and shit and doesn't afraid of anything!

Hold on, why are so many of these names from RPGs? I thought the list was supposed to be cool people from games in general? Then where the hell is Sol Badguy? Or for that matter, any arcade-style fighter characters?

Okay, in terms of "cool"ness how does Cloud make the list? Cloud is an emo turd with a large sword. If anything VINCENT should make the list.

I'd have said Sephiroth since he has his own theme song and what not, but he's honestly not actually that cool. He attended the "How to be a Villian 101" seminar at some point.
Step 1: Don't kill nuisances when you have the chance,

step 2: reveal your plan to the asshole who keeps showing up as you're edging closer to completion of your plan.

step 3: Hinge your entire plan on being able to personally ass stomp 1-4 of the most powerful people in the world, at the same time.

WHAT THE F###!!! SONIC actually LOST to that electric rat PIKACHU! And what about MARIO why is he even ON THE LIST? his games are good but the character himself is way overrated
