November 20, 2008 in Top List comments 24

The Urban Dictionary describes a bromance as "A non-sexual relationship between two men that are unusually close". As such, gamedaily.com have created a top 12 list for these dynamic duos. Some are classics, while others are surprising.

    There is no bromance greater than that of my best mate and I, if you went through what we went through you would understand.

    Bromance? oh man, I just can't bring myself to think of that word, or think of it for my own life. I will just say, best buds or "brothers"

      Don't fight it HisServent, you know that there are times when you just wanna throw on Guy Love from the Scrubs Musical episode and think of that special someone.

      "Brothers" definitely sounds less ridiculous. The whole term "bromance" was probably born from ridicule anyway, mostly by insecure, homophobic meatheads (or the majority of men), I'd wager.

        Hahaha, I don't know, men are becoming more effiminate lately, so the percentage of them being men, is probably shrinking

          Well, my friend said to me once, "You need to be a little fruity to get a little booty." Guess that's popular nowadays. I'm old fashioned though, kinda prefer my men to look/act... oh, I don't know... like men. xD

          I certainly agree with that. We need more John Wayne, and James Bond types.


          But you do have to be able to joke around when you are just palling around with the guys.

          I mean, the majority of us were all on a football/lax/wrestling team at one point right? You know how it is.

    Batman and Robin is a bromance?

    I'd say more a superhero and a freaky stalker gay boy

      Dick Grayson has an ethics-fetish, yeah, and compares himself to his benefactor way too much. As a Nightwing fangirl though, I have to say, his "gay" stereotype only comes from the fact that he's the first Robin and is forever stigmatized by 75-year-old fashions (a super hero in running shorts, blech). They altered the outfit to keep with the times when Tim Drake took over.

      ... we do not talk about Jason Todd.

      That being said, I wouldn't call his relationship with Bruce a "bromance" (refer to BANDITO ATTACK's first comment). It's an okay list. The idea is pretty cool, though I hate that term.

    Mario and Luigi? Yoshi and BeeBee Mariyoh? WTF this list is moot.
    The only good bromance is DK and Diddy and sonic and tails.

    I woulda nominated Snake and Otacon.

    I would have put Snake/Otacon (MGS) and Reno/Rude (FFVII) on the list. They're more of a "bromance" than any of the guys on the actual list, imo.
    (ugh, "bromance" is such a crap word. XD)

      Your comment is just full of win -- totally agree with your nominations. Let's not even mention the ridiculous relationships Dynasty/Samurai Warriors gives us.
