Gaming's famous moustached men: shaved

Steal the face fur, steal the soul

Words: Games_Radar_DaveMeikleham on March 17, 2010

What links all great men through history? The insatiable pursuit of power? An unwillingness to compromise? Snappy dress sense? Nah, it’s a good old tache, of course. Inspired by the recent clean shaven antics of Final Fantasy big cheese Hironobu Sakaguchi and Adolf Hitler, we’ve decided to shave the soup strainers off some of our favourite games characters.

Warning: the following images may shock and appal the hairy-faced among you.

Gordon Freeman

Eggman

Zangief

Niko Bellic

Sergeant Johnson

Mario

Chilling, eh? We apologise for what we've just inflicted upon you.

Zangief looks bad-ass! Of course, as a guy who rocks facial hair without a 'stache, maybe I'm biased.

How's Captain Price not here? He's known for rocking the Handlebar. Or was GamesRadar worried that he'd step out of Modern Warfare and kill them all for messing w/ his 'stach?

Niko and Mario don't look half bad. But GOD GORDON! LOOSE THE BEARD IF YOU TAKE OFF THE MUSTACHE!!! I can't stand that! Beards without mustaches! Never made any sense to me. He looks retarded. And I don't mean that in an insulting way; he looks mentally handicapped, like he just lost 150 IQ points!
