Solid Snake.

Snake has had an array background which chronicles his experience with love and war. His children might live someday in a dreaded warzone. Think about how his children can live in an environment which is unsafe. Snake has all the abilities he can make by teaching them how to do self-defense and take action when necessary. Snake may not be a kung-fu artist, but he can sure trust his children to go out in the world with his unique skills in knocking people out temporarily and having his children safe from harm.

Snake may handle guns, explosives, and rocket launchers, but that is in no way of reach for the children. Snake can teach his own kids that not to handle such dangerous weapons at such a young age. Who knows if they will find a gun or a knife and start playing with them and get seriously injured? Since Snake has the experience with all of that stuff, he makes sure all of the weapons will not be seen by his children.

When Snake sends his children to school, he makes sure he gives them cellular devices beforehand to call Snake in case of an emergency. He also gives out a special notification to the principal there that they are allowed to have cardboard boxes hidden in their backpacks in case some bullies want to try and find them. Given Snake's excellent stealth techniques inside a cardboard box, the principal makes an exception and allows his children to bring their unique cardboard box to school. Whenever bullies try to hunt them down, they can sneak inside a cardboard box and find a safe place where no one can see and hurt them. It's very convienient and wise for Snake's children!

After school ends, Snake's children come home from school. Now if some cheap unfortunate losers try to hurt them in anyway, they can just call Snake and say "DADDY! DADDY! SOME LOSERS JUST TRIED TO GO AFTER ME! CAN YOU PLEASE COME OVER HERE AND KICK THEIR BUTT?". Certainly, Snake knows where his children are behind his back. With no second thought, he just comes out of his door, runs like mad, and sees the losers. As soon as the losers try to come after Snake's children....

This pops up over their heads. As soon as they see Snake, they try to go and hurt him. Snake quickly comes behind them and puts them in a chokehold and pins them to the ground. He then takes his children home from there. Who knew such a great father can take care of your children like that?

As they become adults, the dangers of the outside world get even greater. They will have to start navigating cities, looking for jobs, and start becoming supportive of their own. They can not rely on their dad, Solid Snake, to do their dirty work for them. Snake teaches them the importance of hiding away from criminals and if necessary, teach them fighting lessons. This way, they can be safe in the outside world and not having to use weapons as their last option. As seen in MGS: Twin Snakes, Snake can do all sorts of amazing actions, like dodging a missle. What important affect can this have on their children? It's knowing the advanced techniques of being fast-paced and getting away from dangers as soon as possible.

Snake's children will eventually grow up and get married someday. His children wants to find the perfect match and Snake can help them out. As seen in MGS1, Snake has had a relationship with Meryl Silverburg. The important success that Snake would teach his children is not to go too fast with them, such as using cheap "pick-up" lines. Another important thing would be to develop a bond with them for a long time just like Snake had with Meryl. Always sticking close by with their match is the perfect thing to do and have them get married.

In conclusion, Snake possesses a great deal of experience he received throughout his adventures and he will pass it on to his children so someday they can look up to their father and say "I have the greatest father ever, he has taught me such a great deal of experience that I can never forget". Whether he is in the battlefield or when he is at home, Snake will always remember his children and make sure they are well taken care of. Solid Snake is the perfect video game character to be the best father anyone could ever have.

You need 100 posts before you can enter.

Just a question (I hope this is the right therad... "Discuss" also links here):
What happens when the same Character was choosen multiple times ?

(Just wondering because p1ngpong got somewhat the same like me :/ )

That's fine, you'd better just hope that your reasons are viewed as being better than any other's.

I have a question too is the person allowed to be a father already or does it have to be someone that 'would be' a great father?

Yes, the person can already have children.

 

[8BitWalugi]

I'm going to have to say Flint from Mother 3. Who wouldn't want a dad that dresses like a cowboy?

 

[Law]

snip

Big Boss had relations with Eva, not Solid Snake. Also none of Big Boss' clones can't reproduce, so they wouldn't be good fathers at all.

 

[HBK]

Chuck Norris, obviously!

anddddddd....

Rick Astley, my pick, 'cos he never gives you up.

 

[pitman]

Mario.
He'll come rescue you whenever something happens to you.

 

[El-ahrairah]

Why just settle for a regular, puny father, when you can have a real daddy, a Big Daddy!

Why Big Daddy? Well, who do you think keeps Rapture running smoothly? You know what they say "A man's home is his castle", and boy does Big Daddy defend it! But, even though Big Daddy's day is full of work, keeping those splicers in check, he still has time for his little girl!

And don't even think about keeping his little girl out past curfew, or else you'll feel the wrath of one angry father! You thought a baseball bat or shotgun was intimidating to a date? Try a hand drill!

All that, and he's a single parent!

If you are in the Newcomers group, your entry will NOT be accepted. You need to have a minimum of 100 posts to be in the Confirmed Members group (or have had your account personally validated by a member of staff).

So how would one go about getting his account validated? I have been lurking here almost everyday for 6 1/2 years now. I don't want to enter this contest, but was just wondering.

PM an admin like Shaunj66 or Costello.

Dunno if supervisors can do it, probably can.

Torneko (from Dragon Quest)

Surely he's not handsome, he even looks old and fat, but I would say he's the best father. Why? Because everything he does, he does for his family.

For example, let's take a look at Dragon Quest IV. His dream is become the greatest merchant in world, because he wants his family to have a better house and a good live quality. With a lot of effort and with a great adventurer spirit, he eventually succeeds on his dream and buys a store in Endor, one of the most prominent kingdoms in the game's world. His family, always proud of him, moves to their new house and they help Torneko attending it.

Yeah, he later has to continue his adventure, but that's because he realizes he's one of the choosen heros. And again, I really think he's always thinking on his family, because he wants the world be in peace and enjoy live with them. After his adventure, he reunites again with his wife and son and, because the way he's welcomed, they surely love each other:

(Dragon Quest IV DS).

In conclusion: Torneko is a man that always fight and work for his family, he doesn't care if he risks his life for them, and that's why he deserves to be a figure father.

I would say Miles Edgeworth. I was going to vote phoenix wright but rumors say he's a bit p3do.
Miles is the perfect prosecutor and maybe when he's a dad, the perfect one too.

Who doesnt want their kid to be cool like this

He also witnessed his dad being shot. This will make him cherish his son more because he never experienced it himself, since his dad died when he was young.

 

[Golds]

Kefka!

Who wouldn't want a father who had slaves who would do whatever he wanted? A huge castle that kept you warm at night? And probably any lady you would want anytime?
I mean every father has some type of vise: porn, womanizer, golf, football, conquering the world. But those could be over looked. I mean, on your 16th birthday you'd get a freaking airship, think about it.... a FREAKING AIRSHIP.

Then he'd give me some espers that make me all powerful, you know after we stole them from some lazy town who are weak and don't know how to protect themselves.. stupid town...they asked for it....Or made your slaves dig them up, while we (dad and I) drank beer and sat on our lawn chairs, while some girls with big feathers fanned us and gave us back rubs.. "Dig faster, morons" we'd yell... "hahah".. what a great Dad!

I don't want a father who leaves the castle to save the world. That's the kind of father who never comes home. I want my father around, showing me how to make machines stronger, and 100 ways to kill a goody two shoes hero. I could wake up in the morning and he would make me breakfast, then we'd go conquer some village and make them worship us, then we'd be home in time for dinner. And a great dinner at that, or the chef's would die of course.

I would learn from as much as I could from Kefka, then when he gets too old, I'd probably kill him off and have a son of my own to teach.

 

[raing3]

I would have to say one of the Super Saiyans from DBZ (Goku/Vageta/Gohan/Trunks etc). Because based on the series they seem to have no limitations to what they can do. Back when the show first started they were weak and had no special powers in comparison to now when they are like a million times stronger, can instantly go anywhere in the universe and fuse together.

Haha Goku fighting Superman

 

[Islay]

Hmm
I'm going to have to be cheeky and say
God, as I'm sure hes been in a few games
if not then Mr. Satan form DBZ lol.

 

[anaxs]

bowser would make an awesome father alie

or it could be link cuz hes pretty cool

 

[pnice]

I'm going to go with Professor Layton. He would be a great dad and would always have his child learning something new.

 

[hyperz69]

Awww crud guess this is a contest I can't enter cause I am not at 100 posts.

I have been around for a while, I just like lurking is all... the shadows are so friendly!

Big Boss (aka: Naked Snake, or John)

Besides his amazing military career, saving the world from nuclear devastation (and causing it as wel d: l), facing some of the most powerful and feared bosses ever created, general "badassery" emitting from him, an expert in CQC and firearms (he would pass his knowledge onto you, train you, /ect...), being able to treat his own wounds like he was a whole hospital rolled into one guy (with the help of para-media, break your arm on your bike, no problem, just snap it back in the socket and wrap a piece a piece of around it, I told you, youll shoot your eye out kid, now put this eye patch on), a survival expert and he will eat pretty much anything (dinner would be snake stew, with bat on a stick, followed by rat tail cake with a side raw fish ice cream

)
and who else would give his own son a CQC hug?
