From the moment any video game begins, players go through hell and high water to find the most powerful weapons in the game. However, some games give you the most powerful and resourceful weapon right away: your fists. Here are ten of the best games in which you use your fists of fury to dole out the harshness to all your foes.

There are a lot of great weapons in video game land. But even with all the guns, swords, and laser cannons available, little can top the satisfaction of giving someone a beat down with your bare hands. Honestly, I dare you to try and think of a better feeling (other than sex) than rushing your enemies-knuckles clenched and ready for action-and giving them that right hook to the jaw, sending a spray of teeth, spit, and blood in the opposite direction.

One word describes it perfectly:

AWESOME

Here are some of the greatest games where your fists are your best friend and your enemies'-uhh-worst enemy.

    Figured TES IV: Oblivion would be there....You can use a variety of weapons effectively in this game. Swords, daggers, axes, warhammers, maces, fists (with or without gloves), magic, bows/arrows, am I forgetting anything?

    DMC Ifrit Gauntlets look awesome >_>

    Article title is a bit misleading though. Some of these games just give you the option (and do it well), they don't necessarily favor the fist.

    Fist of the North Star in the arcades (doubt there are many (if any) in them these days though). That one really favoured your fists!

    *cough/choke* Streets of Rage please?! WTF?! You can take on armies of people with your bare hands! Axel Stone was the ultra grock and could kick that Devil May Cry fool's ass anytime
