You Complete Me, Bro
A bromance, according to the Urban Dictionary, is "A non-sexual relationship between two men that are unusually close." Their heterosexual love affair plays out through a series of fist-pounding frathouse antics -- think Michael Cera and Jonah Hill in Superbad, Vince Vaughn and John Favreau in Swingers, or, in the video game world, Marcus Fenix and his buddy Dom from in Gears of War 2. In the spirit of 'bro'-therly love, we highlight 12 of the greatest bromances in video game history.

Sam and Max!
Double Dragon... seriously they left out double dragon...
patson13 Kazooie is a bird an has no breasts. Also "she" acts like a man so i call it a man!
really? they asterisked out the word ***? censoring the word is discriminatory so long as the original usage wasn't derogatory... and it wasn't . Shame on you gamedaily
going up the list from comments I can see: Diddy owns Donkey because he can cartwheel jump. Master Chief has no bromance nor is there ever any indication that he's ***, although I admit the sexual tension could go either way. That said he's kinda cyborg so he may not even have sphincters. Snake and Otacon def should have been listed!!! Ryu and Ken are rivals. Cloud Barret date scene lulz. To cmdr, gamedaily loves money for promoting games, even the weakest of a series. Lastly, I concur, eff the lego games.
sorry for the typos :D
wow wtf is chewbacca and han, and batman and robin doing in thaere ...... if you cant tell by my sn im a fan of Star Wars but still... jsut becuase they are put in a game doesnt mean they fricken belong in it... geez atleast have put in something thats not a lego game........ cause lego games arent at the very top of my list of epic sotirey lines...
On the Jak and Daxter one--Why the pimpage of 'Daxter'? Yeah, that's the latest game of the series, but it's also set in them middle between 'Jak and Daxter' and 'Jak II'. Oh, and right, it sucks. Daxter only sees and interacts with Jak, like, twice the entire game. Pimp the good titles from the series--Jak II, Jak 3 and hell, even Jak X (full of racing). The ones that ACTUALLY have bromance? Did any of your reviewers even play the Jak games? Ps. Crappy picture is crappy. And from Jak and Daxter: Precursor Legacy. Aka, not the game you talked about. Confusing much?
What, no Cloud/Barret? That totally should have been on there, seeing as how close they are and the fact that there's even a scene ( Occasionally, depends on your responses earlier in the game) where cloud ends up on a "date" /w barret ¬_¬
Ryu and Ken should have made it. esp with the close release of SFVI
