The Coolest Video Game Character Ever Tournament
Alright alright! I’ve decided to host a tournament of epic proportions here on my website. We’re going to find out once and for all, who is the coolest video game character ever. This will be a tournament by elimination, 1v1 matches, winner continues, loser is gone for good. For the first set of rounds, there will be 2 matches per day, vote once per each battle, and make sure to stop in every day to make sure you get to vote ;D
So right now, until next Wednesday, I’m accepting applications for entrants, suggest anyone you like, any game, any platform. Even NPCs are allowed, anything goes, so start suggesting! :D

Can I get some clarification as to what MU is though? ;P
Craneberry said,

Colm as a rogue? Isn’t that extremely overspecific? Same with character classes. They aren’t really characters. And we should probably restrict it to characters that actually have a chance of winning. Possibly even characters that only appear in video games. Doing characters that also appear in shows and movies just seems to make this topic wayyyy to broad. That’s my 2 cents.
Craneberry said,
March 15, 2007 at 6:50 pm
P.S. I made Colm an assassin :D
Tannas said,
March 15, 2007 at 8:22 pm
a) I’m not restricting it to characters that might have a chance of winning, any character is welcome
b) It already is only for characters in video games, what shows and movies only people have you seen in here? Or have you forgotten there are Dragonball and Naruto games?
Craneberry said,

I said only in video games. Not only in movies :P. I mean, maybe if it was like, Billy Lee from Double Dragon or something, that would be fine, coz he’s got his roots in the games. They make video games of pretty much everything, so adding in characters who originated in a movie or w/e leaves it way too open. You’ve gotta have some kind of limitation, or I could just add Hulk Hogan or James Bond or almost anything I want. Also, just because a little-known, un-popular character has a special place in a person’s heart, doesnt mean anybody else is going to vote for them. It just seems overly redundant. And this thing is going to be long, and drawn out enough as is.
Tannas said,

Well, I meant for it to be very open/relaxed, once the final # of contestants is in, I’ll adjust how many matches there are per day, it seems like I’ll need to do more than 2 per day.
James Bond and Hulk Hogan are definately welcome. I understand your point with the ‘originating in video games’, but I decided not to put that restriction :P Besides, I’m guessing that the video game characters that didn’t originate from a video game are a small minority, no big deal ^_^
*I did take out the job part for the 2 Fire Emblem characters though*

MU is the MMORPG I was playing before I wandered onto Ragnarok and joined Guilty Gears. I’ll give you a link to it sometime, maybe some screenshots.
Tannas said,
March 17, 2007 at 11:24 am
is it just MU? or doesn it stand for anything? like RO = Ragnarok Online

I don’t really think character classes should count, more specific characters.
But if they’re going to, Creators should be on there. So totally more badass than professors and star gladiators combined!
…although really, if we get enough people to come here the whole class system will be on the list. ‘Cept SinXes, ’cause they’re stupid. >.>
Mm, don’t really have any specific characters to add. Looks like the list’s plenty long already, anyway. x_x
Tannas said,
March 19, 2007 at 5:05 pm
*added Creators and Yoshi*
Tommorow is the deadline for nominating entrants, Wednesday the battles can begin!
I think I’ll be doing 4 matches per day (all in one go), for the first heat at least, so make sure to check in every day and tell everyone else you know to come and vote also ;P

Solid Snake is in there, he didn’t win, but w/e, voting was done by about a dozen people.
Why are there new comments here anyways? @_@ I haven’t done anything to this site in nearly a year.
