Games that make you feel like a total badass

[Akai Shizuku]

We've all played them. Old games. New games. Badass games. What games make you feel like a total badass?

I'm going to have to go with a very underrated WWII shooter known as Brothers in Arms DS. Unlike its Xbox counterparts, this game takes place in third-person. While it felt very badass to hop onto a tank's MG and start mowing down Nazis in the Xbox games, for some strange reason, every moment of BiA DS feels that way, and not just the tank bits. So, Escapists, I ask again: What games make you feel like a total awesome badass?

 

[HardRockSamurai]

Batman: Arkham Asylum
Gears of War

...and, for what it's worth...

Stranglehold

 

[Lord Mountbatten Reborn]

Fantasy World Dizzy did. Seriously, don't laugh at my shame.

 

[Proteus214]

God of War is pretty much the ultimate testosterone fest.

 

[Last of the Chinchillas]

Fallout 3.

Watch as I freeze time, blow off your heads, and then walk away wearing my kickass stormchaser hat.

 

[RavingPenguin]

Batman: Arkham Asylum
Gears of War

...and, for what it's worth...

Stranglehold

Damn you and your stealing of my ideas. Seriously though, what Samurai said, even though we're not supposed to.

 

[Mordwyl]

Any Castlevania game. Ever.

 

[QuirkyTambourine]

Fallout 3.

Watch as I freeze time, blow off your heads, and then walk away wearing my kickass stormchaser hat.

I agree with this. It gets a bit repetitive after awhile, but somehow no less satisfying, to blow the heads off of feral ghouls and raiders, and to people who are watching it, it's totally kickass

Fable: The Lost Chapters.
Walking around 7 feet tall, clad in a friggin platinum plate mail armor with an awesome helmet wawin' around a sword the size of a town guard.
Hell yeah.

 

[hazabaza1]

Batman: Arkham Asylum
Gears of War

These.
And Mass Effect, at times.

 

[The Austin]

Arkham Asylum.

That game makes me feel like the badest dude in a place full of bad dudes.

 

[Project_Omega]

Yes but how about killing Mc Creedy? HE IS SO FUCKING ANNOYING! when I killed him I took a pic of his face being blown to pieces!
Yes, fallout 3 is the most badass game

 

[fudgebo]

Devil may cry,god of war, halo, arkham asylum, gears of war

 

[Akai Shizuku]

I'm surprised nobody mentioned Call of Duty.

 

[L3m0n_L1m3]

I'm surprised nobody mentioned Call of Duty.

Definitely COD4. And Prototype.

 

[Hoppetussa]

Assassin's Creed. You have a hood. And a hidden blade. Awesome.

 

[ThisNewGuy]

Snake in Metal Gear Solid

 

[THEMILKMAN]

WET

well for a while at least until the effect wears off and then its just repetitve.

But definitely every MGS game ever. Snake is a man's man.

 

[Akai Shizuku]

I'm surprised nobody mentioned Call of Duty.

Definitely COD4. And Prototype.

I actually find that CoD5 is more badass than 4. Not much badass about massacring legions of guerrilla fighters who are significantly less well-equipped than you.

Metal Gear Solid

I got ninja'd!

Other then that I'd have to say the Thief games. I love sneaking around and completing the missions without anyone noticing me. It makes me feel awesome.
