Dante looses a few points in my book for the whole black bar across the chest thing he did.

Falcon? Of course they put him on the list (though I disagree).

**samejamesbond** · 05-18-2010, 05:41 PM

Captain Falcon is pritty manly, he'd be my #1. Of Course.

But what are the top 10?

I'm guessing Sergant Johnson and Duke Nukem.

**Demon-Mask** · 05-18-2010, 05:55 PM

Guille would be high up.

**samejamesbond** · 05-18-2010, 05:55 PM

You have to be a manly man to ask women if they're man enough.

**Demon-Mask** · 05-18-2010, 05:56 PM

I guess so...

**Dudebro** · 05-18-2010, 06:02 PM

Dante is not manly. I don't care what he does in game or w.e, he dresses like a gay guy at a costume party.

**samejamesbond** · 05-18-2010, 06:03 PM

He does have aweful attire, but he still can destroy his oponents.
But who do you think is in the Top 10?

They'll probably tease you with Mario and then put Wario in at #1 and Donkey Kong at 2 and Mega Man at #3. They'll probably even try to throw Link, Samus and one of the Battletoads in there too.

I think Bionic Commando should get a mention. A grapling hook for an arm is awesome.

Like I said it doesn't matter what he does. A flamboyantly gay character could be written to destroy whole planets and it wouldn't make him manly, right?

I've never given much thought to who's manly in games. If I had to make a list it wouldn't include Dante, Squall(or any FF characters really) or Mario. Mega man wouldn't get on my list either despite his name implying he is a mega man

It's hard to say he's manly when they always draw him as a kid.

**samejamesbond** · 05-18-2010, 08:08 PM

I don't know about not making them manly, but definitely on the weaker side.
But, you wouldn't add Barret or Auron?

They don't always draw him as a kid...

Granted, he still doesn't look the least bit manly here, in fact he looks less manly here.

I should've been more specific. I mean the main characters. It's not set in stone but FF isn't known for masculine characters.

@Brawlmaster- that picture is all kinds of fail,

**jim5cents** · 05-18-2010, 09:49 PM

i'll put a wager. i'll take solid snake at number 1, someone else can have the field.

**samejamesbond** · 05-18-2010, 10:02 PM

Let's guess 10 people and whoever gets the most is the champ.
(It's OK to repeat, just 1 person has to be different)

-Solid Snake
-Ryu Hayabusa
-Sergant Johnson
-Frank West
-Duke Nukem
-Kratos
-The Contra Guys
-Mike Haggar
-Marcus Fenix
-Guile

**Tails** · 05-19-2010, 08:51 AM

Contra guys is Bill..

**samejamesbond** · 05-19-2010, 08:55 AM

Thanks, I forgot.

Who do you think will be the 10 manliest?

**Kong** · 05-19-2010, 10:16 AM

I'll name the franchises that I think will make it.
Mario - probably Wario.
Donkey Kong
Street Fighter
Contra
Snake
Shinobi
Ninja Gaiden
Strider
Bionic Commando
Mega Man

This wouldn't be my list (I don't think I would even have a list), just what I think their list will be.

**Demon-Mask** · 05-19-2010, 09:49 PM

This is my list, not one I believe will win.
10-Solid Snake
9-Ryu Habasa
9-Strider
8-Richter Belmont
7-Duke Nukem
6-Bald Bull
5-Solid Snake
4-Guille
3-Kratos
2-Dan Hibiki
1-Boss (MGS 3)

**Dudebro** · 05-19-2010, 10:36 PM

That sounds good to me DM.

**jim5cents** · 05-20-2010, 09:05 AM

except you put solid snake twice, he is manly, but not that manly.

**Demon-Mask** · 05-20-2010, 07:13 PM

I didn't realize that, the one at #4 should have been Big Boss.

**samejamesbond** · 05-29-2010, 11:45 PM

The Top 10 are announced, who are the Top 10 Manliest People?

I sure wasn't disappointed.

Tommy Vercetti? That makes sense, he was cool.
Zangief is really manly.
Kratos is one hell of a man.
