Favorite Video Game Villian
 
This is in the vain of BaB's earlier favorite animated villain post over in Peanut Talk.

We've all seen our fair share of jerk-offs and sadistic villains that strike terror in the hearts of gamers, so what's yours? Videos of some of said villain go great too!

I'll go ahead and start and say Luca Blight from Suikoden 2.

That guy is all sorts of messed up.

For some reason... even though I've never really played a Final Fantasy but I want to say Sephiroth... he is bad ass.

I was kind of thinking the same thing but hmmm...


I know there is another awesome villain that I can't think of

or



Sephiroth sucks. Ultimecia is better than him and she's only in the end of the 4th disc of FFVIII. Kuja is better than Sephiroth, but Kefka still takes the cake.

I figured you'd agree with me about Luca Blue.

oh HELL fucking yes, as a matter of fact I dare any of you to name ANY other villain besides him that has actually conquered the world.

Kefka is the best. He is the only bad guy in the FF series who never had a reason other than crazy!

Anyone else notice that most of the villains are from RPGs?

I just found it interesting.

I was gonna point out the same thing, but I guess since RPGs tend to be more character/plot driven... most of the interesting baddies would come from there.

I shall break the mold, and nominate the most hard-working villain of all-time.

Bowser/King Koopa

I mean he has been trying for almost 25 years. He kidnaps the Princess on several occassions, but his plans never really get past that. He can also flips sides when he feels his evilness is being threatened.

And most recently, a game takes place inside of him so....

All hail the King.

Kefka is pretty great.
Ultemecia is cool too. Spehiroth is just like the loser of the bunch. Even Garland/Chaos is better.
Ganondorf is pretty great. Love the laugh, and the evil piano at the end of OOT, seriously? Just so classy.

It's kind of hard to deny Sephiroth as a major contender, whether you like him or not...

But my vote is for...

Ah, Mass Effect. I had so many problems with getting around the AI and the horrible lag I would experience. I was so driven to finish it too and it just killed the experience completely.

Thats not really a video game villain, unless your referring to the horrible lag, cause thats pretty evil.

He's my favorite, regardless of what you haters say!

On what grounds does Sephiroth suck? Because he's the subject of many anime fanfic orgasms? Disregarding all the bullshit attention he's gotten since FF7's release and looking solely at the Sephiroth character from the game, you can't deny that he is an incredibly notable villain.

But yeah, Ultimecia is cooler. And the two dudes from Vagrant Story were awesome (yeah I can't remember the names, doesn't help my case, I know).

I always liked King K. Rool. DKC is probably one of my favorite games, as well as DKC2, and parts of DKC3.

I've beaten Mass Effect no less than three times, and I have no idea what you're talking about. Was there an issue with some Mass Effect copies?

There probably was, I know on one planet later on in the game, I think the one where you kill a bunch of the bug things, but when you leave the cave the frame rate drops to about 3fps and its absolutely horrible, you can barely pause the game to reload and try again.

Kefka all the way--these guys get points for style though.
