Any punk ass jabroni can pick up a gun and be a badass. Any blonde spiky-haired emo bitch can kill a dragon with a sword ten times his size. But it takes a truly epic kind of badass to go after that same dragon with punches and kicks and acheive the same results as the guy who's totally overcompensating for something with that ginormous sword or huge gun.
Now i'm not gonna bother putting people from fighting games up here...i'd die of old age without even getting a tenth of the way through the list. Unless it's a character from a fighting game where most of the other characters use a weapon of some sort except for one who relies on fisticuffs.
If a character can be customized so that they can rely predominantly on Unarmed Combat(like the protagonists of the Fallout games), I may also include them here. I'll also allow an exception for character who use weapons designed to enhance unarmed combat techniques like Khatar Punch Daggers, and characters with superpowers ONLY if those powers are primarily physical in nature(like super strength, or shapeshifting). So Alex Mercer is in, but Cole MacGrath is not.

Sadly I havn't played any of the Persona games. I've wanted to for a while but I always feel like i'm missing something critical when I jump into a long established franchise without having played the previous games. So with that being said, all I have to go on for Akihiko is various web pages devoted to him. From what I've read i get the sense he's more of a support character(buffing/debuffing) than a frontline fighter, but regardless he gets mad respect for bringing his fists to a demonfight.
It's Tifa. 'Nuff said.
Yeah he was a dork. But darn it if he wasn't an energetic dork. It was fun watching him bounce around all hyper before he beat the snot out of something.
Havn't played the game. From what i've read, he's kind of an imbecile. If Zell is any indication I guess you'd have to be to go after giant monsters with your knuckles.
Dude, he suplexed a demon-train.
Again, I havn't played the Persona games but I understand she inherited the gloves of the most powerful character from the previous game, which I assume speaks well of Lisa's prowess.
Hey she practices Kung Fu, AND she puts out. That's my kinda girl.
Setting aside the various and numerous flaws with the whole Tenchu game series, Tesshu was probably the most fun of all the characters in the franchise with the possible exception of Tatsumaru. His attacks and stealth-kills were a joy to watch, and he had the LEAST complicated, yet MOST entertaining(and beleivable) storyline.
Havn't played the game or read much about him, but in a setting where other people are using lightsabers and plasma rifles, he's ninja-kicking the damn rabbit. Sweet.
She's from the same game as Cliff.
