Now that Charlie Sheen has a bit more free time since Warner Bros. decided to finally up and kill Two and Half Men, one can only wonder what a man so focused on winning will be able to do to occupy his time. While I’m sure we can all agree that splitting his time between the two major women in his life, one a notable adult entertainer and the other a model/graphic designer, is a full-time job in and of itself amidst the binges that the public is aware of – there doesn’t really seem to be anything in this world that can keep the man down. And why should it? If your veins were full of tiger blood, you’d want to conquer every last anything on the face of the damn planet too. But when Charlie isn’t polishing his public image to a high sheen, one can hopefully imagine that he finds a moment or two for some downtime amongst the in and out of his hectic days. All things considered, it’s a sure bet that he’d probably find himself, controller in hand playing at least one – if not all of these games – that is, if his hands already otherwise occupied.
10. Homefront: There is no scarier thought for many of those living in the United States than the prospect of an invasion from a foreign power with the intent on totally wrecking our American way of life. Well, few people are as intimately acquainted with such a notion as Mr. Sheen who, in his earlier years, repelled a Communist invasion over the course of the events depicted in Red Dawn. Concept aside, if there is one man I’d want rushing to the frontline to punch the enemy in the face, it’d be Charlie Sheen. He doesn’t care if they have petty little things like tanks or machine guns. Why? Because he has his not-so-secret weapon – an unending supply of tiger blood. That’s right, shoot Charlie Sheen and he only becomes stronger. Get shot and get a transfusion from him and you too can become a tiger blood-laiden avatar of doom for all who oppose you. May someone have mercy on the enemy, because Charlie sure as hell won’t.
9. Grand Theft Auto IV: Being pulled into the police station for drugs now seems like a distant memory for many who grew up watching Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, yet in many respects it has served as a haunting prophecy of what was only yet to come for Sheen. However, everything seems to have worked out for the best as was in the case with Niko Bellic, which is slowly becoming analogous to Charlie Sheen. While Two and a Half Men has essentially been killed off by his antics – he is more popular than ever and has been propelled to memehood. It just shows you that if you pay your dues, you’ll land where you were meant to – actually, just live life at 11 and you’ll probably end up happier.
8. Red Dead Redemption: Now, this isn’t my way of saying that Red Dead Redemption utterly devastates the Western Genre of films from the late 80’s and early 90’s, namely the Young Guns series, but I have a feeling even Charlie would agree that Red Dead Redemption would be winning any kind of dispute between the two. Better plot, set pieces and characters all serve to act as a Western just about anyone from a generation that would enjoy, let alone tolerate video games would be able to get through. After all, campy 80’s anything is always going to be eked out by a badass story about a badass character and I think we call all agree that Charlie Sheen easily fits that bill. After all, who better to hunt the Wild West for cougars than him?
