most badass lead character

[Rockman X]

i would have to say squall because of his scar and the fact that he has a kick ass weapon which is the gunblade

lolWUT?

Cecil and Cloud have their moments, but I voted for Zidane. Tidus and Vaan are the furthest from badass a Final Fantasy lead can get. I would add Celes, as she is one of the two leads of VI (well, the lead of the second half, anyway). So I voted for Zidane.

...Of course, if Balthier had been an option...

That's...quite a good point, Celes was a badass. Why wasn't Locke on the poll either? He's not really a badass, but he and Celes are just as much lead characters as Terra was.

Balthier...hmm...I suppose he was badass-ish, in a rogue sort of way. Reddas was certainly a badass, but he wasn't a main character.

I voted for cloud.
He was awesome in the movie Advent Children.

I was torn between Cloud and Squall, but I chose Squall.

Aside from the opening FMV, Squall was truly badass throughout the game. The Landing was awesome, although Quistis was surely more badass than him there. Driving the car through the parade and jumping on Edea's float was badass. Breaking out of the Galbadia Prison was badass. The Galbadia War was badass. Hijacking the President's train was badass. Saving Rinoa from space was badass. There are many other moments of badassery, but I'm tired of saying the word badass.

I wish i can vote for 2 ! cloud or vaan! Id say Vaan. I dont really know why though.

Voted Cloud.

But I think once FFXIII and Versus is out, we'll have one or two proper badass characters.

The dude in Versus from what I've seen looks pretty badass, and Lightning looks pretty bad too.

Anyone but Squall or Cloud, really. ;D

I voted Cecil, though. Such a bad ass. -rofl- Even though he doesn't really look like one. (In paladin form.)

Vincent if DoC is counted if not the Squall for having one of the best weapons.
