I know I will be bashed for this and called a fanboy (even though I don't have any collectibles etc.), but... Cloud Strife. First name that popped up in my head, and I can't think of anything else now, so I'm sticking to this... for now
CLOUD STRIFE?!?! Oh what a fan- No, I'm just kidding.

Actually, the fact that he can sword fight on a motorcycle makes him a bad ass in my book.

I have to go with Vergil from DMC3. I mean, Dante and Nero were pretty cool too, but they used guns while Vergil was a frickin sword summoner.

Or Ryu Hayabusa from Ninja Gaiden, cause that guy uses a sword, and can pick up any other weapon and be totally adept at it, so he's badass too.

Kain - Soul Reaver (from the LOK series)

Conan tho he really uses any weapon he chooses
Conan can pretty much use any weapon, but he IS very well known for using a sword.
Speaking of which...I'd put down Elric of Melniboné too...except, as far as I'm aware there've been no Elric games, a shame, but good I suppose, they'd probably try and stuff him into some kind of crappy slash em' up affair. He deserves better!

Also....*grunt*...I want *nnggghh* to say...*arrrrgghhhh* Sephiroth!! *gasp* Sorry...but, he was my first experience of badass swordsmanship...even if it made no sense as to -how- he was swinging the damn thing. Actually, jumping down on someone from above seems like the only logical way he -could- make use of it. -_-

I don't think Elric could be "gamed" and maintain the flavor of his universe.

It's between Raziel and Kain (Legacy of Kain) for me. Both guys are excellent fighters and their blades destroy souls.

Edit: made up my mind. Kain wins in the long run by having an awesome voice actor (though I have much love and respect for Michael Bell).

Top 3: Kratos (more of a psycho than a sword wielder, he uses many ways to dispose of enemies),
Vergil(no one's more stylish :D),
and that blonde guy.... what's his name? Oh! Cloud ^-^ (I think he performed well in the movie killing than... um, Sin Bahamut(?)thing with a sword XD)

If were basing it only off of how awesome the blade('s) are, then Dante, with his Multitude of awesome Swords. Link, because he is a repeating Hero, and, of course, the greatest Insane mofo ever, Gray Fox (In MGS: Twin Snakes, because that has awesome cutscenes, which show how badass he is).
