Top Ten Russian Video Game Characters

In Soviet Russia, Videogame play you.

Tired jokes aside, these characters are usually very extreme or comical, probably because of how stereotypically thick the Russian accent is and that all Russian men are buff basically. Anyway, there isn't much to say here, so please enjoy the Top Ten Russian Videogame Characters.
The Top Ten
1 Heavy Weapons Guy (Team Fortress 2) The Heavy Weapons Guy, more commonly known as the Heavy, is a character in the video game "Team Fortress 2". He is a towering hulk of a man hailing from the USSR. He is the largest and possibly most dangerous class in Team Fortress 2.

I play a lot of TF2, and even though I use Heavy the least everything he says is hilarious. Every single line of dialogue done in...that voice is pure gold to me.I love how passionate he is about his gun and his lovely sandvich.

I am Heavy weapon's guy
And this is my gun.

I am heavy weapons guy

He's a funny guy

2 Zangief (Street Fighter Series) Zangief, often called the Red Cyclone, is a character in Capcom's Street Fighter series. Considered to be the first fighting game character whose moveset is centered on grappling, he made his first appearance in Street Fighter II: The World Warrior in 1991.

I don't know much about Street Fighter - but Zangief is supposed to be really well liked so I plopped him here. His muscular build and thick accent solidify him as a true Russian.

3 Soda Popinski (Punch Out Series) Soda Popinski is a fictional Russian boxer from Nintendo's Punch-Out!! He first appeared in the arcade version of Super Punch-Out!! in 1984 under the name Vodka Drunkenski before being renamed Soda Popinski in Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! for censorship reasons. Soda's offense consists of throwing super ...read more.

Okay, now this guy is just a big walking stereotype.He walks around the frosty wastelands of Russia bare chested and has superhuman strength. Hell, he used to be called Vodka but they had to change that for obviou reasons. Soda truly embraces the stereotype and even though everything he says is in Russian he is really quite entertaining and a good, hard opponent in the game.

4 Revolver Ocelot (Metal Gear Solid Series) Revolver "Shalashaska" Ocelot is a recurring fictional character in Konami's Metal Gear video game series. Considered an anti-hero of the series, he takes on a variety of roles: a major nemesis to Solid Snake, a friendly rival to Naked Snake, the right-hand man of Liquid Snake and Solidus Snake, and a close ally to Venom Snake. The character has been well received by video game publications for his role as a central villain and antihero in the franchise and has often been considered one of its most important characters for his connections with various characters.

Again, I don't play much MGS, so I can't really say why he is here. But I do know he is a recurrng character who appears in basically all the games, so I think he is a pretty good contender for this list. His body isn't as massively muscular as all these other Russians are, but that's what unique about him, he isn't a big walking stereotype.

You're pretty good.
