Greatest video game villains PS / XBOX / NINTENDO

I’m sure you know where this is going. Here’s a list of each consoles most sinister conniving brutal heartless piece of sh** douchebags. Mind you I’ll try to be as accurate as possible.
Here you are, the Villains you love to hate, but hate to love.


PLAYSTATION



10- Heihachi Mishima (Tekken Series)
Heihachi Mishima… Might not be the toughest guy you’ve fought but definitely one mean SOB. Considering he Threw his own son off a cliff to make him “Stronger” and “Prove his worth”. All in All Heihachi is just a stone cold prick. He’s like a more evil version of the ‘Cobra Kai’ Sensei, “Sweep the leg…”



9- Vamp (MGS 2 & 4)
The Infamous Vamp, Nano-machines help him recover and heal faster than any human. Making him a pain in the ass to fight in both times you encounter him. Not many people would live to tell the tale of taking a sniper rifle bullet through the dome, except Vamp. In MGS 2 he managed to catch a bullet with his forehead and lived to mess with you some more in MGS 4. He has a stylish way of fighting, making him a pleasure to watch in action (like the fights between him and Raiden, MGS 4). But he does have certain terrifying aura about him, sprinkled with some cool on top.  

8- Origami Killer (Heavy Rain)
I’m gonna try to leave all *Spoiler Alerts* OUT of this description, simply because if you haven’t played Heavy Rain yet you need to get on the ball. It’s a fantastic game with an amazing story and incredibly unique gameplay. Enough about the Game though… I’m here to tell you about the Origami Killer!! This is the type of bad guy that gets under your skin and makes you hate him/her with every ounce of hate you can muster up for one person. He kills little boys, drowns them and dumps their bodies with an Origami placed in their hand as his calling card. This Monster is cold hearted, patient, intelligent, malicious, and very driven. Making him/her one of the best chases you’ll have in a game


7- Zeus (God of War III)
In most cases Zeus is not considered a bad guy, but in the eyes of Kratos Zeus definitely deserves an ass kicking up and down Mount Olympus. Zeus has Screwed Kratos over MANY times; The God of Thunder just isn’t what the Disney movies made him out to be. After Many Battles with the Gods Kratos Finally came down on Zeus the way anyone would want to come down on someone that’s caused you a whole lot of grief. “Ah that First person punch out session was so satisfying!”

6- Dormin (Shadow of the Colossus)
Dormin a mysterious shadow entity residing in the Forbidden Lands, and an ambiguously-motivated pseudo-antagonist of Shadow of the Colossus. Pretty much tricks the Protagonist (Wanderer) into killing and “collecting” the Colossi to revive him to his Full form. Pretty much a dick move from the start. Naughty, Naughty, Dormin Bad! Bad Shadow entity!



5- Liquid Snake/Ocelot (MGS Series)
Possibly one of the greatest adversaries in any game, the identical (Blonde) twin brother of Solid Snake. The first time you met him in MGS 1, he played you for a fool. Posing as your old friend Master Miller, shooting you useful tips throughout the game and just all in all being a “nice guy” to have on your side. Only to later find out he’s the guy you’re after. That he’s your brother, and that he’s got certifiably insane plans for the world’s future. After the ‘Shadow Moses’ incident, Revolver Ocelot surgically replaces his amputated arm (Lost in an unfortunate Cyber Ninja Kitana accident) with Liquids. Slowly turning Ocelot into Liquid by consuming his mind and body, Yes, Liquid is so evil and bad ass his ARM can take over a man’s mind and body.



4- Zoran Lazarevic (Uncharted 2: Among Thieves)
Zoran Lazarevic… This is one bad mother *shut yo mouth!* this guy is merciless, sinister, powerful, and completely single minded on obtaining his goals of absolute power and becoming the strongest man alive. Also sports some wicked burns on his face and body. He kills without thinking twice, brings down entire cities, and does NOT negotiate he just takes what he wants when he wants. His charisma towards his goals just makes him a really scary guy to cross paths with. If you met him in real life he’s definitely not one to be F*cked with.


3- Albert Wesker (Resident Evil Series)
This guy is just bad news, and for some reason seems to become stronger and increasingly bad ass every time he shows up. Albert Wesker the man behind a majority or your problems in the Resident Evil series. At first he was your typical douchebag double cross, became the S.T.A.R.S. team commander working as a double agent for ‘Umbrella Corp’. After being “Killed” by the ‘Tyrant’ Beast in Resident Evil 1 (not before injecting an experimental virus into himself) Wesker was thought to be dead. Then makes his grand entrance back into the series (Code: Veronica X) working for ‘Umbrellas’ competitors now, Not to mention gained some serious super human power and speed during his absence. Any cinematic fight with Wesker is a Jaw dropper. 


2- Sephiroth (FF VII)
Sephiroth is definitely a villain that stands alone, in the sense that he’s the one bad guy you wouldn’t mind being! Sephiroth has an undeniable swagger about him, sure he’s evil but he has his reasons. He’s driven by his OWN goals, which are pretty much kept anonymous until the end of the game of course. Sephiroth is just too bad ass to hate, even when he impaled your woman. Nothing could shake the fact that his black outfit, extra-long Kitana, and long white hair just made him too cool for school. 




1- The Boss (MGS Snake Eater)
The Boss, AKA the Joy and The Mother of Special Forces, was the "Final child of the Philosophers," and the mentor of Naked Snake (Big Boss). She was the founding leader of the Cobra Unit (The Sorrow, The End, The Fear, The Pain, The Fury) in which she was known as "The Joy," however, when they were disbanded at the end of World War II, she was granted the codename of "The Boss." Together with Naked Snake, she developed the technique of CQC (Close Quarters Combat). Boss was a GREAT villain; she had Purpose, Skill, and an unwavering sense of patriotism (even though it was questioned throughout the game). The Boss is truly someone that will get into your head into your bones and shake your core. Not to mention the fun fact that she’s the mother of Revolver Ocelot!!



XBOX

10- Adam Macintyre (Dead Rising)
Clowns are creepy enough already. But when you equip a clown with TWO chainsaws and smack a very demented mind frame on him, you’ll have Adam Macintyre from Dead Rising. Not Only was Macintyre A challenge, he was just down right Psycho and a totally enjoyable character to see in action.




9- Genra/Omega (DOA 3)
I don’t know about y’all but I hate this guy, such a pain in the ass to fight. Decked out from head to toe in some stunning armor, and toting some strange plasma double blade type thing. It’s just no fun going up against this guy.




8- Vigoor (Ninja Gaiden)
A very awesome looking final boss, in both angelic and devil-ish forms. An all in all stunning looking boss who really rips sh*t up during the fight.












7- Doku (Ninja Gaiden)
Although Doku isn’t the main antagonist, he for sure made an impression on the players. Destroying your village and taking the Dark Dragon Blade, not to mention kicking your ass in the process. He’s just a straight up BAD ASS, in that crazy Shogun Samurai armor flames in his eyes. Definitely the type of person you want on your side.














6- Genshin (Ninja Gaiden 2)
Genshin forms an alliance with the Fiends and he will stop at nothing to destroy Ryu. His focus is to put an end to their clans' centuries-old feud once and for all (Black Spider Clan vs. Dragon Clan). This guy is one of the most difficult people I’ve fought in a game, between his regular and “fiend” form it’s just not an easy task to take him down but it’s also cool to hear the history between Ryu and Genshin as they battle it out.

5- Berserker (Gears of War series)
One of the Sickest Beasts in Gears of War is most definitely the Berserker. Doesn’t really have great eyesight so she relies on sound and smell, if this baby picks up enough speed she can wreck through walls without skipping a beat. Not only is the Berserker fast but she’s also a brute if she gets you in her grasp prepare yourself for a beat down like no other, the Berserker can Dish out just as much as much if not more than it can take!







4- Tank (Left4Dead)
“Special Infected” HULK sized Tank; it is the most powerful among the Infected in the game. The Infection caused enormous muscle and bone growth, giving Tank superhuman strength and durability, able to dish out and take more damage than any other infected creature. The Tank is designed to instill panic on survivors, scattering them away with its fist pounding and freakish roars. Unless your team works together to take it down, the Tank can wipe out an entire team all alone or with the assistance of other Special Infected.








3- Frank Fontaine (BioShock)
Frank Fontaine is one of the primary baddies in BioShock. He is a criminal mastermind, and nemesis to Andrew Ryan. Also the leader of the opposition in the power struggle which leads to Rapture's fall. All his forms (Fire, Ice, Electric) are pretty Bad Ass he’s a lot of fun to fight, and for sure a very interesting baddie in BioShock















2- 343 Guilty Spark (Halo Series)
You’re gonna tell me you weren’t satisfied when you smashed this freakin’ orb!!




1- General Raam (Gears of War series)
A Cold Blooded Gear killer, General RAAM is no joke. Worked his way up to general, now thoroughly enjoys killing killing killing. He’s mesmerizing to watch and for sure one scary looking beast.









Nintendo

sorry couldn't find the tornado lol
10- The Tornado and the grim Reaper in Paperboy
“Hey! I’m on a paper route here!!!”  Some personal sized tornado chasing you, and ‘Death’ walking up and down some driveways. It’s not as easy as you think being a paperboy in the 80’s










9- Red Falcon (contra)
The Red Falcon was depicted to be an unstable Red organic mass that attempts to conquer the Earth. As the first phase to conquer it, he created a terrorist organization (and an alien army) which is named after him. Everyone remembers getting here (hopefully with your “S” Gun) with your buddy and blasting away at him








8- The Amazon (Pro wrestling)
Not necessarily a bad guy considering there is no story mode for this game. But you have to admit out of the 6 characters to choose from if one of them is a monster (that bears a striking resemblance to the creature from the black lagoon), he’s most likely a bad guy. If I remember correctly is special move was biting your skull, just some food for thought.










7- Frank (Mad World)
Pretty much a variation of the Frankenstein's monster. His vocabulary is shot since he’s never left the dungeon; He turns some of cells in the dungeon into electronic torture chambers. He lives in an underground lab complete with a recharge chair which he uses to regain health, he’s massive dumb and strong as hell making him your typical big dumb boss. None the less still one Bad Dude.


6- Wario (Super Mario)
WARIO. Fatter, yet surprisingly muscular, hot-headed, greedy anti-hero, and Mario's yellow-and-purple overall wearing rival. Wario's greed pushes him to commit mischievous acts, such as the taking over Mario's Castle. Wario is the total opposite to Mario, making the rivalry pretty fun especially since the game is usually very light hearted. Wario is a fun but gross alternative to Bowser.





5- Bowser (Super Mario)
The Big Dragon/Dinosaur/Turtle that you’ve been jumping over around or under to defeat since the NES days. Does he really need an introduction?












Not the nice Mario we all know and love...
4- Mario (Donkey Kong Jr.)
Mario wasn’t always the knight in shining armor saving the princesses and stuff. Before all that he would capture huge apes that play drums and display the incarcerated primate to their tiny ape children taunting them to try and forge an escape for their Papa. Not sucha nice guy anymore huh?













3- Mike Tyson (Punch out)
Before he was chewing on ears he was pounding Lil Mac’s face in. I don’t know about y’all but I’ve never been able to beat him? Making him my #1 enemy in the Nintendo world.










2- The “Z” shape in Tetris
“DAMN YOU Z-SHAPE!!!!!!!!!!!”









1- Ganondorf/Ganon (Zelda series)
Another sinister evil doer, Ganondorf, notorious for kidnapping princess Zelda (several times, you’d figure they’d beef up security in Hyrule at some point?) and sending Link on all kinds of wild goose chases to find things he’ll need to save her. Ganon in any form is a dangerous foe, and on top of it all he’s a pretty scary looking creeper.








If you think I missed anyone or the order is messed up..... HOLLA!!
