Can anyone think of a cool swordsman character?
 

I'm trying to think of characters from videogames that where cool swordsman type guys. So far all I can think of is Link, The Prince of Persia and Cloud.Anymore or is that it?

Baraka

Sephiroth, duh!

Auron's the first one that comes to my mind.

Mitsurugi, hard to use, but pretty good

Technically from an anime, but Samurai Champloo just got its own game too long ago... so Jin and Mugen.

Crono, how the hell could you forget him?

Frog > Crono

Though I've never played the game, Date from Devil May Cry.

Marle > *

Yuber, Viktor, and Luca Blight from the Suikoden series.

Kratos, from God of War. Probably one of the most badass swordsmen ever. Technically he had swords.. they were just attached to chains and they were fiery.

Mitsuhide (Samurai Warriors)
And Funky meant Dante.

Roy from Super Smash Bros. Melee :heart:

The guy from ghosts n goblins.

Yoshimitzu I love that crazy fuck

:y: I was all set to say Roy and Marth, but Mitch beat me to it.

There all good... The one's I've heard of, I mean.
You know some guys do flash cartoons in there spare time and stuff? Well, once in a while when I have time to kill I make music videos. I want to do one themed around characters using sword.
So far I've only definitly decided on Link and The Prince of Persia.

Flik*

:heart:

Very cool as well, but the 3 I named are better.

The Gohda Ninja Team from the Tenchu Series

Captain Smirk. :love:


Rep for the first person who knows the game. :heart:

Monkey Island?

Ryu Hayabusa. One of the grandfathers of great swordsmen in video games.

Kratos and Dante would be my choices, maybe Virgil from DMC3 also.

Ukyo from Samurai Showdown.

WHY HAS NO ONE MENTIONED ANYONE FROM ANY ONIMUSHA GAMES?!?!?!?!

Samanuske is where's it's at

Oh and the Black Oni

Suikoden has a lot of badass swordsman. Georg is another, Nash too. What about Kenshi or whatever his name is from Mortal Kombat? Not a huge fan, but he's loosely based off Zaitochi, who is awesome. Characters from the Onimusha games, and if you want to count them, then Dynasty Warriors are also pretty badass.

Saminosuke.

Cao Pi - Dynasty Warriors 5

NINJA GAIDEN

Dunno if that's his name...but you get the idea.

Swordsmen kinda such in DW5.

Xiahou Dun was way cooler, BTW.

Zhou Tai > Xiahou Dun and Cao Pi.

Zhou Yu, Lu Xun, Yoshitisune, Jubei Yagyu, and my favroitve...GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGANDANTESS! THE GREATEST SWORDSMAN OF ALL DEMONS!

Oh and Dante! FUCKING DANTE!!!!!

Devil May Cry mother fuckers!

Link.

Guts from Sword of the Berserk: Guts rage on Dreamcast and the PS2 berserk game.

Squall from ff8 while the games storyline was pretty bad, his weapon was beautiful (the gunblade)

also for more swordsman

Virgil (dante's bro)
Riku (from kingdom hearts)
Seifer (from ff8)
Zidane and Steiner (FF9)

Before Mentioned
Auron and Sephiroth (jesus can you get any cooler swordsman?)

Pfft. Viktor is only where he's at because his sword is a true rune :p

You listen to emo, don't you?
