Feature: The 47 Most Diabolical Video-Game Villains of All Time (Page 3 of 7)

Feature by Hugh Sterbakov | 03/05/2008 | 16:44:19 PM PST

34. Lavos (Chronotrigger)

Lavos (Chronotrigger)

You've heard one story of an alien parasite who came to Earth 65 billion years ago, you've heard 'em all. Unless you're talking about the diabolical Lavos, who had three distinct phases and then two parts in his final phase and then a whole 'other form in Chrono Cross. My boy goes through more makeovers than Madonna.

33. Kefka (Final Fantasy VI)

Let's face it-we could populate this entire list with characters solely from Square games. And yeah, there will be a couple more. But this guy enslaved our girl Terra and, let's face it, committed genocide. I mean, it's not like he threw some fireballs at us. Homey killed billions.

32. Evil Otto (Berzerk)

Don't judge us for putting this bouncing smiley face in front of the guy who killed billions. Look, you try playing the frantic neural spasm that is Berzerk and tell us if Evil Otto doesn't freak you out too. (Photo Courtesy of classicgaming.com)

31. The Flood (Halo: Combat Evolved)

The Flood (Halo: Combat Evolved)

The arrival of the Flood marked a completely unforeseen turning point in Halo's previously straightforward storytelling, but the developers were too busy throwing a brutal, unforgiving assault at Master Chief to stop and pat themselves on the back. Now THAT is adrenaline.

30. M. Bison (Street Fighter II)

M. Bison (Street Fighter II)

This guy had the nerve to look you dead in the face, threaten your very soul and then tell you he represents an organization called Shadoloo. That's brave, man. You get the image of him busting into a breakdance fight against Sha Na Na. (Photo Courtesy of Wikipedia)

29. Nemesis (Resident Evil 3: Nemesis)

Nemesis (Resident Evil 3: Nemesis)

Anyone who played this game must still have post-traumatic stress disorder from this guy. His constant pursuit made RE3 memorable even among the other, superior installments in the series. My policy: Whenever a guy has an eyeball in his shoulder, I vamos! (Photo Courtesy of Wikipedia)

28. Bob the Killer Goldfish (Earthworm Jim series)

Bob the Killer Goldfish (Earthworm Jim series)

Come on-the dude is a goldfish! And he has cat minions to do his evil bidding! Bob may not be the toughest boss on this list (in fact, he's probably the easiest, since he's famous for never putting up a fight), but he's definitely one of the most creative. It'd just be nice of the developers shared whatever they're drinking... unless it's goldfish. (Photo Courtesy of Wikipedia)

27. Cats (Zero Wing)

Cats (Zero Wing)

"All Your Base Are Belong To Us."

26. Singe (Dragon's Lair)

Singe (Dragon's Lair)

Dragon's Lair was a seminal sidestep in the history of videogames... not quite a portent of the future, but absolutely a step away from the past, and Singe was perhaps the most lifelike and beautiful villain ever created. And oh, boy-the breath!

25. Mike Tyson (Mike Tyson's Punch Out!!)

Mike Tyson (Mike Tyson's Punch Out!!)

Now HERE is a guy who speaks softly and carries a big stick-two of them, in fact, and they're called left and right biceps. Mike Tyson arrived at the end of the NES adaptation of the arcade classic Punch Out!! to clearly define pain as a toothy grin and weird haircut.

24. Hogger (World of WarCraft)

Hogger (World of WarCraft)

Oh, I'm such a cute level 11 rogue, look at me running around killing pig guys! I must be good at this game, I haven't even died yet. Hey-look at that Hogger guy, I wonder why he has a dragon on his nameplate. I guess I'll kill him, too. AHHH!!! BLOODY BRUTAL DEATH! STOP MOLESTING MY CORPSE, HOGGER! (Photo Courtesy of Allakazam)
