Chun-Li - China
Manliness: 2.3
Although Chun-Li is female, thus lacking manliness, she is still pretty pissed off.
E. Honda - Japan
Manliness Quotient: 4.0
A big fat Sumo wrestler... not very manly. Still, his thousand-hand-slap will give you nightmares.
Ryu - Japan
Manliness Quotient: 6.8
Ryu is your standard marial arts expert who wears a sweet white gi and can kick some serious ass. Nothing too special, but still manly.
Ken - United States
Manliness Quotient: 7.5
Essentially the same character as Ryu, Ken wears a red gi and sports the same move set. But Ken is from America, and thus more manly. His uppercut is dominant.
Dhalsim - India
Manliness Quotient: 8.8
Although I was not sure if anyone who called himself a "Yoga Master" could be truly manly, Dalsim's ability to dislocate nearly all of his joints and club you with his arms and legs has caused me to rethink my initial position on this issue.
Blanka - Brazil
Manliness Quotient: 9.2
Although not technically a man, Blanka is a green chest-thumping monster from the Amazon that rips people to pieces with his bare hands and can charge his body with near fatal levels of electricity. Awesome!
Sagat - Thailand
Manliness Quotient: 10.0
Although Sagat is technically a boss character, this 7-foot-tall Thai Boxer pummels you with his knees and fists. After you are dead he puts one of his huge ape hands over his chest and laughs at you. Sagat is the greatest!
Zangief - Russia former Soviet Union
Manliness Quotient: 11.0
Four words: Big Russian steroid freak! This guy is huge, hairy, and has gigantic "scars" all over his body from “wrestling bears”. Yeah right, we all know they are really stretch marks from massive steroid abuse. Fact: Zangief is the only character in the game with a fucking pile-driver!
Guile - United States
Manliness Quotient: 11.0
Guile (the viking of the group) is a martial arts expert from the United States Air Force. He has ridiculously huge blonde hair, and he destroys his enemies with spinning backhand strikes and a devastating back-flip kick that will neutralize any offensive move in the game. Guile is a one-man army and deserves his own game. America... Fuck Yeah!

Seriously WTF! I dont know how that fuck chose CS over DK3D??? He has some of the best quotes from a videogame ever and you can fuckin hassle strippers or blow em up! How manly can you get than that!? In CS the manliest thing is just getting a head shot with an AWP and the guy's head stays in-tact.

1. youre a ninja that can throw ninja stars, fireballs, wield a katana, climb up walls, and summon phantom doubles.
2. youre out to rescue your woman
3. you happen to save the world in the process. oops. just an accidental side effect.
4. its got a manly army guy who goes down swinging, sacrificing himself to buy you more time.

Well, I like the old PC GTA, and Duke 3d not because it was super advanced strats, but you get some 8 player stadium or level 1 going down, then you had good times, also when guys were a few levels down nothing was as funny as a pipebomb death from above and killing all of them. That game was a good, fun fragfest for its time, and I'd rather play a game like that than gay ass halo 2.
fishjie
07-11-2006, 12:46 PM
actually, i'm gonna have to say that DOOM is the manliest fps, not Duke Nukem.
First off, you've got a Marine, in SPACE. He is thrust into a mars base that has been taken over by zombies and demons, and singlehandedly takes down a huge 30 foot tall cyberdemon with rocket launcher for arms and the gigantic spider mastermind. the whole time he communicates via grunts and groans, and no matter how much blood is streaming down his face, he keeps on going till everything in his path is dead. finally, he wields a BFG, the BIG FUCKING GUN.
if that is not the definition of gangster, i dont know what is.
EDIT: lol my favorite memory of duke3d deathmatch was, i saw my friend standing still, so i pummeled bullets into him. when i moved in closer with a shotgun, i realized it was a HOLODUKE. My friend sprung the trap and jumped me from behind with rockets. TRICKED! AMBUSHED! OWNED!

I say again, where the fuck is splatterhouse.
1. Guy was MURDERED and brought back to life by an evil fucking hockey mask
2. The guy took on demons, decapitated heads, an inverted cross, and a demonic version of his girlfriend among other things
3.In SH 3 I believe, he could become a beast and shoot spikey innards out, if that's not manly, I don't know what is.
4. He kicks the shit out of the people Dasrik listed.

Kratos is the epitome of manliness...Conan like shit almost. The dude has bloddy rags covering his wounds, he rips people in half, and fucks multiple women at once. Kratos is top tier for this category.

At some point they (Capcom) realized that it was easier to animate Guile with identical tattoos in the same places. You know, for the 2nd player side.
I swear his old art used to have only one flag tattoo.

That's like saying patrick swayze isn't a man....sure he's a balerina, but he's a mother fucking man, no doubt.

07-11-2006, 09:48 PM
You missed a few, Ouroburos.
Baiken is more manly than everyone in Guilty Gear except Pot, Slayer, and Faust.
And God of War was a honorable mention, and would be perfect EXCEPT the fact that Kratos is SPARTAN.
And anyone who has studied Greek history knows that Spartan men certainly loved their boys....in many more ways than one :wasted: :wasted:
And actually, it's now been stated that Zangief is NOT gay.
The original quote about Zangief was mis-translated...Gief fits the Japanese stereo-type of a gay man (big, brawny, hairy guy with a mustache and spandex) but he is actually NOT gay. It's just that...he's often the butt of Japanese gamers' jokes. But we in America have always seen him as simply a macho man.
Kinda like how in America on the other side of the coin we have Benimaru...who the Japanese have always accepted as 100% straight and a "ladies' man" when he fits every single Western gay stereotype you could name.
And Zangief is probably no longer a Commie either. He's the ultimate Russian patriot...it doesn't matter the politics, he loves his country just the same. When Russia embraced democracy, he probably did the same as well.

The list is basically just this guy's favoriate games growing up, plus a couple relatively recent additions like Metal Slug.
None of those games are paticularly manly.

This list is crap without Ikari Warriors. It was made by the same dudes who did Metal Slug, Ikari means "anger" in japanese, and you have unlimited grenades and fucking sweet mullets..
Starhammer
07-12-2006, 11:21 AM
overall, I'm cool with the list. with so many games to choose from, I think it should've been a top 20 instead of just 10. one thing I can't overlook is no Duke Nukem. Points off for that.
And some twisted metal should've made the list too. No final Fight? c'mon. How many of you got started with beat em' ups? *raises hand* I won't take anything away from Double Dragon, but put side by side, I think that maybe, just maybe, Final Fight edges it out. That's IMO though.

Dude...Poison/Roxy is a transvestite man-whore, alas, smacking him may either increase or decrease the "manliness factor" of the game, depends on your own personal perception.
My vote goes to Street Fighter 3: Third Strike.
Why? Because REAL MEN USE Q™, and everybody knows it.
EDIT: oh shit. Holy shit, I can't believe I overlooked this earlier.
Dude....don't class Vega with benimaru. He may be a pretty boy, but he's a crazy fucker.....and did you see him beating the shit out of chun li in the animated movie. Only a real man beats up a woman.
That's like saying patrick swayze isn't a man....sure he's a balerina, but he's a mother fucking man, no doubt.
Also, I hear that in the uncensored version, he got a free peep show of Chun-Li's jubblies before beating the living shit out of her. Now that's manly.
