Characters from [[Video Games]] that are just that... totally... Awesome.
* Alice Liddell from the American McGee's titles (American McGee's Alice, and Alice: Madness Returns). Not only would I never want to get in her way in Wonderland, but as we see in A:MR, she's not half dangerous in London too. Yep, that's pretty [[Crazy Awesome]]. But she's also a lovely person when she's not psychotic (and sometimes even when she is), although she desperately needs a father or older brother to keep her safe.
* I believe Durandal from the ''[[Marathon Trilogy|Marathon]]'' trilogy is one of the most underrated characters in video games ''and'' in insane-computer-AI dominated sci-fi in general. He could easily hold his own against SHODAN, [[GLaDOS]], or HAL. For one thing, he was incredibly rich and believable. When I played the games, I actually felt like Durandal could be a real person if he was human. Yeah, he was an insane AI, but that was only one dimension of him. I also loved the fact that he wasn't really a hero or a villain, just an arrogant, self-serving, power-hungry bastard the player had to deal with. Unlike in so many other games, you're not fighting against the aliens to save humanity or something noble like that—you're fighting against the aliens simply because Durandal tells you to, and you really don't have a choice. The fact that humans benefit from it makes no difference to him; it's in ''his'' best interests, and that's all that matters. Incredibly clever if you ask me.
Line 463:
* Why the FUCK aren't there ANY Mortal Kombat characters here? For SHAME, tvTropes, for shame. I'll start with my all time favorite, Quan Chi. A badass who could single handedly kick pretty much any kombatants ass while barely trying. He's got two kick ass fatalities in the new game as well. I loved this bastard as soon I saw him wayyyyy back when he was introduced. I wasn't allowed to play the games back then but I found him funny looking and kinda cool. I didn't get to play as him until Deadly Alliance though. And damn me, but his voice good Gods; pretty much every appearance he's had this voice that causes me to squee like an idiot. Especially the newest one. Also, he's pretty attractive for a pale bald guy...much like another one mentioned here before...

* Let's add Shang Tsung, the other [[Evil Sorcerer]]. Just typing that name gives me a mixed reaction of fangirlyness(Young form plx), fear and downright shivers from sheer awesomeness.Seriously, there is no being better at identity theft then Shang Tsung. And my Gods, is he [[Precision F-Strike|fucking]] [[I Was Quite
* Roy Earle from ''[[L.A. Noire]]''. [[Smug Snake]], yes. Racist, yes. Misogynist, yes. But he's completely hilarious to listen to.
* There's a reason why [[Rance]] managed to have the [[Video Game Long Runners|longest on-going]] story line out of '''any''' videogame character. He is just that [[Crazy Awesome]]. Rance is [[Lovable Sex Maniac]] taken [[Up to Eleven]] and then some, saves '''''ENTIRE COUNTRIES''''' because he feels like it, could easy become the king of one of two out of the four human countries of the world, is a sufficiently justified user of [[Rape Is Love]] (due to being a [[Warrior Therapist]]), makes [[Black Comedy Rape|rape HILARIOUS]], is an expert at [[Shut UP, Hannibal]], has an epic [[Slasher Smile]], has had a badass [[Leitmotif]] which is an epic remix of the East German national anthem even before it merged back with West Germany, and his story is [[Beyond the Impossible|STILL ONGOING!!!]]
