Solid Snake is defiantly tops! I was really hoping that Isac would be on here. He fought through hoard of necromorphs while putting his mechanic skills to use on the ship while trying to save his girlfriend! MANLY!

Snake is the man. Besides Chuck Norris he owns us all not because hes a super solidier, no, because he makes evryone feel proud,sad, and angry with a change of a song not and scene.

For some reason I kinda wanted raiden to be here. Not for his MGS2 role but his MGS4 role, which made me want to play as him. He was so bad ass even though he such a pansie
