Man, I love to see heroes rise and save the world from it's destroyer. It's very... Cinematic! Hello Wandering Traveler and welcome to a top 10 greatest gaming heroes! Now there will be some rules, as per usual. First there can only be one for each franchise (Like in every Top 10 list), there can only be real heroes, meaning you won't see any anti-heroes like The Punisher or Spawn. And they have to have moral. They need something that separates them from villains. I hope you enjoy and good day!
10. Mario
Everyone know what he does and he doesn't just plumbing. He saved princesses, saved the Mushroom Kingdom from a mech castle, killed Bowser many times, and saved entire galaxies. He saved more than what could have ever thought and we couldn't think he would ever do it. Except when it's a dream or play...
9. Frank West
He covered wars! He covered wars, I say! And tries his best to get breast shots in making. Still, he was counted on as the man with the power to help and he did. He stopped the military from killing all the civilians left and he definitely covered it all and got his scoop. And even then, if he didn't seem to make, he would try his hardest to save himself and anyone around him.
8. Vault Hunters
These guys are the baddest badasses out there and they still are called the heroes of Pandora! Although, only the sane and non-bloodthirsty people out there are calling them that. Even though these guys are in it for the money they still look out for anyone if they have a nice reward in hand... Or maybe a good laugh. I mean who can get a laugh on a planet that is infested with insane bandits that kill anything that they see?
7. Solid Snake
This guy is the man of old legends and is confused with his own clones, but is still called awesome. I'm serious this, guy's awesome to me. He saves by command and helps any even if it's against his orders. He destroyed the machine that was suppose dominate the the world, killed one of his advanced cloned brother, and saved the creator of his own game!
Who can do that in a day?
6. Joel
This man has problems and that's what makes his character great in the game. He has nothing to do with you or anyone around him unless you are a friend or family member and he will do anything to keep his family alive. He is a troubled man with a heart which is why we love him so much.
5. Lee
Everyone who is a fan of The Walking Dead, know the man with the child, Lee. He was the leader and caretaker and had a moral of helping those who wanted it and accept help from those who can be trusted, he is the one that had it all and lost it all when he died. We hope for the best to Clementine in her future.
4. Gordon Freeman
This is the man who led the resistance to their position now and stripped City 17 down to show their real hellish looks. Of course he ends his legend like any other hero has, with a cliff hanger...
Not know what would happen to any of the resistance members and what would happen to Gordon and Alyx. He had ended with everyone missing him and with a tear down their cheek. His heroic image will be remembered by all nerds.
3. Samus Aran
Before her sex reveal, she was the best seen around the galaxy and was seen in fear by all who saw her as a threat or heard rumors of her actions to other pirates. Even though she is seen as a rogue killer by the audience, but she is the hero who has killed the dragon alien who killed her people.
2. Marcus Fenix
He is the man who led the Delta squad to their mission to victory and avengement. After him witnessing his team leader's death and taking his spot, her sought to avenge him and complete the mission he was left with. Although, he had to do this three times over to really get his avengement completely, but he did what had to do. We hope the best for him when he returns in the Gears 4 game... Wait... Please don't tell me he's dead...
***Now for Some Honorable Mentions***
Lara Croft
Corvo Antano
Isaac Clarke
1. Master Chief
C'mon! What did you think was going happen? Okay, hold on! I know he's one of the most hated heroes because of how famous he is, but look. He's one of the most memorable of them all. He is the iconic hero that you are casted to see through his eyes of courage! Since all of his adventures were watched by the eyes of hows' and made us almost cry when the game ended with his adventures lingering in the next one to come.
Well, I hope you liked this! Wow! It feels good to be back in this awesome Top 10's! Again, I hope you liked this and what do you think is the greatest hero in gaming? I know there is a lot of people who disagree with me, so cry it out to the heavens if you want to. Well, 'til next time...
