OT: No idea. There's dozens of games bases on manly men doing ludicrously manly things. Walk into a game store, close your eyes and throw a rock. Chances are it'll hit a game in which the manliest of men ever does the manliest things ever.
Manly co-operation!
There's something awesome about Dante wielding Yamato and Vergil wielding Rebellion. The swords look so out of place in the wrong hands, it's such clever design.
I really like how Vergil talks... It's just cool. How everything is a statement and it's all to the point and thought out. Dante just never shuts up.
"I've come to retrieve my power. You can't handle it."
The contrast between Dante and Vergil is so well designed in general. The final battle between the two is awesome.

John Marston in RDR walking out of that barn. Man have courage.
Not a game, but in Predator there's a scene when all the characters just fire machine guns into the bush for several minutes. That is Badass.

Yesss, "manly"...two scrawny well-dressed boys sitting isolated from the world on a lonely roof top in the middle of the night, each doing something with their left hand that we can't see...Elvaril said:
Oh, as for my entry, I'm pretty much going with what Rawne1980 put up [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.398650-Manliest-thing-to-ever-happen-in-a-game#16313948]. Robbaz in general is doing a good job of being entertainingly manly as far as internet gamers go, but bludgeoning people with your fists when hundreds of weapons and magic spells are available is a pretty manly way of getting things done.
Captain Titus has done a lot of manly things over the course of the game, and his honour in yielding to the Inquisition when many would have doomed themselves and others by fighting it is certainly admirable, but his response to Brother Leandros at the end is one of the most shaming speeches I think I've ever seen in a game. No shouting or grunting, no explosions, no lens-flare or guitar-solos, not even any aliens, it's made all the more manly by the fact that it's understated and quiet. Just the kind of linguistic *****-slap that the paranoid little drone needed.
I'd recommend playing Asura's Wrath. Practically every episode is a contender for "Manliest thing to ever happen in a game"
There are still people impressed by that? The guy stood the jet on it's tail, jumped back in when it was motionless, and put the thing into a complete stall. Pretty sloppy work all round if you ask me.Silvanus said:
The original is still much better. Guy doesn't even miss a beat.
