Here in the year 2012, there has been a mass influx of scarves in videogame character design. Some Gaming Journalists™ and critics claim this is a short lived fad. Others aren't complete morons. And me? Well I'm here to enlighten all of you on why scarves are the paragon of style, especially in games.
Games are pretty cool. Scarves? Pretty dope. Scarves in games?
Don't even get me started. Or rather, you don't have to. Cause I'm starting right here. This is a salute to the most fabulous accessory in (and out) of gaming.
Ladies and gentlemen, hold on to yapants scarves. We're gonna get this shit started.
Alright kids, we're gonna start this off slow, just to get the scarf-noobies a chance to catch up here, and get acquainted with the godlike-ness that are scarves. Here, we got a pretty basic scarf on everyone's favorite anger management session buddy, Ryu Hayabusa. Yeah, standard fare. But did I mention he's a ninja? Do ninjas need scarves? Do they actually offer anything to a ninja?
That was a test. If you answered no to any of those questions, might I suggest you get the hell out. Seriously. Get.
Cause you don't need a reason to scarf up!
You just need to scarf up.
And wading a bit deeper into the world of scarves, we got a little sumthin' to appease you Smash fans
or F-Zero hipsters. Little bit of motherfucking Captain Falcon bringing his neat little scarf onto the battlefield
and/or racetrack. This is one badass dude who knows a little bit of scarf fashion magic goes a long way. Falcon Abortioning dudes? Scarf makes you look like you're Jesus. Wrecking the racetrack like you're on space-drugs? Scarf blowing in the wind makes you look like one damn cool dude.
And then we have Rita Mordio from Tales of Vesperia for all yall weeaboo animu fankids. Now I know what you're thinking: "She's not even wearing a scarf!" Doesn't matter, she's so kick-ass that she uses scarves to kick the enemy's ass. When she's not spamming Tidal Wave and Meteor Storm on bosses, she's using her scarf to kick your ass from one side of the battlefield to the next. She's got style, she's got substance, and she's got sass, all good traits for a scarf user. If you're in need of a weapon for a protagonist, make sure you consider the scarf.
Now for a more recently released excellenté scarf, we got those wanderers over at Journey. The desert's got a hold of that anti-gravity scarf technology for damn sure. ThatGameCompany is a dev that knows its scarves. And its mystery. What are the dudes in Journey looking for? That mountain in the background? Nah, I'm pretty sure it's motherfucking scarves.
Now I know what you're thinking. These are all protagonists with scarves. What up wit dat, OP, sir? Well I'm getting to it, you asshole.
We got a throw back to the golden ages of gaming for all you golden aged gamers. We got Gruntilda in the house, representing dat two-tone beauty of a scarf. She's had her shit on lock for so long, Harry Potter wish he thought of this shit first.
Here's a more niche character with ABSOLUTELY NO LACKING in the scarf department. Viewtiful Scarf. Scarftiful Joe. Scarf Scarf.
Just look at that thing. Need I say more? No.
But I will anyway. Cause we're talking about fuckin' scarves.
It's a dope ass scarf.
And how for you handheld-scarfers that are on the go, I'm sure you're gonna love this one. ThisPokémon Djinn Master, Isaac, from the Golden Sun series knows that, yeah, saving the world n' shit while hunting magic creatures n' whatever is great and all, but how much better would all that be if you had a stylish ass scarf? Man, fuck that, if I were this dude, I'd ditch the world, I have SCARVES, BRAH.
Now I know what you're thinking. You're saying, "Yeah, these are all pretty sweet ass scarves, but good sir OP, I think the best scarf in gaming i-"
Hold on, I'mma
let you finish, but your opinion on scarves is the shittiest thing I've ever seen.
Because, last but definitely not least, like what might be the greatest scarf in all of gaming:
I present to you, Strider Hiryu.
Look at that scarf. Just fuckin' look at that scarf. It's like the most beautiful thing on the god damn planet. The most hipstery hipsters of the entire hipster world wish they could even set their eyes on a ridiculously radiant scarf such as this one. Cloth that defies the laws of phyics? Check. The absolute most comfortable material a scarf can possibly be made of? Probably. Red? Why the hell not. It's even got a god damn mouth piece so you can act like you're a ninja and shit. What more could you possibly want? Nothing. Absoultely nothing. Ah-aa-ah. Don't even say anything. Cause there's nothing to say. Just shut up. Stop.
Well at this point, I could keep on going and going and going and going on and on and on and on about scarves and their greatness, but then where would the rest of you guys have a chance to chime in? You wouldn't. So I'm gonna be a great guy, and let you guys get in there and voice your opinions on scarves. So what are you waiting for? GET TO IT!

Damn scarf was too big to not put it in a quote box!
