Top 10 Fat Bastards Found in Video Games

GameDynamo - "In fiction, extra weight on a character is often used to symbolize corruption, the physical and moral distance from "heroic" athleticism that comes with excess consumption. In reality, obesity is an epidemic of modern society, a disease caused by the unhealthiness of modern diet and lifestyle that is extremely difficult to treat. Fat in real life cannot be attributed to causes as simple and reductive as individual weakness. That said, here are some video game villains who use their paunch as part of their repulsive charm."

That GOW fat villain really takes the top spot

Another fat one is the fat boss in the lust/gluttony stage in Jericho. I think his name was Casus Vicus

Great title, didnt even read the article, just thought the title was brilliant.

Fatman from MGS2 comes to mind when i think of fat bastards, and of course Fat Bastard himself from Austin Powers, but thats a movie.

TMNT Arcade: Wrath of the Mutants review - Games Asylum

Games Asylum: "Well, this is neat. As the name suggests, Wrath of the Mutants is the rarest of things – a genuine arcade conversion. With most modern arcade games being ticket redemption machines, this is something seldom seen. In fact, the last arcade conversion we can recall was Raw Thrill’s own Cruis’n’ Blast on Switch back in 2021. This is also based on an older iteration of TMNT, harking back to the series from 2012-2017. It’s essentially breaking franchise continuity (we’ve had two different iterations of the Turtles since) and could even be considered nostalgic for a select few – those who grew up with 2012’s Turtles are probably in their late teens."

It must be frustrating for these devs to see Helldivers 2 absolutely devour their lunch lol

-Oh my God, this game looks like a complete rip-off of Helldivers II!

-At least it gives Xbox players the chance to experience something similar to the PlayStation game!

Jokes aside it does make you wonder why Sony, who owns the IP for both, is continuing with two products when there is such overlap. Should it one day make a new Starship Troopers film or a Helldivers film instead?
