A list of my favorite video game villains.
Showing 1-10 of 36 items
Illidan is easily the coolest Warcraft villain, and a genuinely compelling character. He should have totally beaten Arthas.
I have to admit, Ansem of Kingdom Hearts really is one of my favorite game villains. This is mostly due to the fact that he was just tough enough, and evil enough to take seriously, but still hilarious! Besides, the dude's voice is epic. The wannabe in the sequel has nothing on him. Seriously.
A totally evil entity who is stated to be the embodiment of Soul Edge itself. This can be a little confusing in Soul Calibur III, when Siegfried has been freed from Soul Edge's control. It is stated that he has the cursed sword in his possession, and yet Nightmare's spirit is also inhabiting the his old armor thanks to Zasalamel. At any rate, he is another over-the-top villain screaming about darkness. You gotta love it! (Note: I liked his voice better before IV)
Crazy, evil, wandering warrior? Check. Other-worldly powers? Check. Crazy, over-the-top voice and lines? Check again. Sounds like a winner to me! Seriously, Akuma is a personal favorite of mine for similar reasons to Ansem of KH. He makes me laugh, and yet I can take him seriously as well. Epecially when the computer cheats!
Bowser is on this list entirely for nostalgic purposes, and also because he is my main in SSB. Remember when this guy was King Koopa? Remember when he first became Bowser in Super Mario World? What do you mean you don't? Hey, I'm not that old!
Dr. Robotnik is the big baddie of Sonic's games. Back in the days before we started calling him Eggman. Eggman? Seriously? I mean, I guess he will always be hilarious and memorable. It's not like he was a very serious villain anyway, but he'll always have a rather round place in my nostalgic heart.
She's Jun! She is. Namco is lying!
