Where is John Cena?!

 

[m@cross]

Will watch when I get home after work, along with anything else I missed from GT the last couple days.

Weird choices.

Bowser is a straight-up villain in some games, but he's an anti-hero in the RPGs and a go-karting buddy in the sports games.

Lavos is a parasite. It eats to survive. Yes, its survival is at odds with everyone else, but I would hardly call it a straight-up villain. That's like calling a mosquito a villain.

Where is Gary Motherfucking Oak?

He's not even a villain, he's just a douchebag. The 2nd generation games have him mature quite a bit too.

Wesker is a good villain.
Ares from God of War was good too
The God of death from God of War 3 pissed me off thus achieving his goal as villain.
I liked the dude from Bioshock 1 as the villain. I'll say he was a great villain. Worth a mention on that list.

I don't understand why Bowser and Ganondorf keep getting mentioned in every list as Nintendo's greatest villains.

*Giygas
*Pokey/Porky
*Ridley

Yet none of those 3 guys ever make it? The lists are just a popularity contest instead of being about actual great villains.

Come on no Sachiko? I know I'm reaching here

How in the world is SHODAN not on here?

I guess taking over a space station, targeting earth with a mining laser, and creating a virus that threatens to enslave humanity isn't "straight up villain" enough

 

[Ishida]

That's why I find it a bit silly with how in Chrono Cross, they mention how he's "filled with hatred and sadness" and how he wants vengeance or something.

Huh... They mention that about Schala/Time Devourer, which is a being with sentience.

 

[StalkerUKCG]

Shit list, sephiroth should be higher psycho mantis doesn't deserve a place at all and ocelot over liquid since liquid has be in 1 game. Ocelot did all the heavy lifting for a villain in that series.

 

[WrenchNinja]

I have a new appreciation of Xehanort after replaying Birth By Sleep

It's too bad Leonard Nimoy won't be able to voice him anymore

 

[Fitts]

Romeo Guildenstern is still the only antagonist in a game that committed such vile acts that I actually felt intense hatred for the character. Nothing else in gaming has felt as satisfying as defeating him for the first time.

Ridley's entire role is to roar and attack the player out of nowhere. He's a great boss, not a great villain.

Also, Giygas is hardly a straight-up villain.
