Top 10 Video Game Villains

Every game has a different storyline and different factors driving that storyline, but all games have one factor in common. That one factor is the bad-a** whose music or voice sends chills up your spine when you hear it and you know what's about to happen. Each villain is different and each has it's own way of doing things. To make this list they have to have done something either extremely evil, have a truly dark and deprived past, or simply make the player soil themselves when they make their appearance.

3. Sephiroth -- Final Fantasy VII

Rooftrellen6100d ago

Ramirez from Skies of Arcadia is one of my favorite villians of all time. Maybe its just that I've been played it again recently, but rarely is a villian more than someone who opposes good. Ramirez seeks to unite the world under a powerful ruler to end wars. In that way, I suppose if you consider Shadow Sonic's villian, he ranks right up for me to, since he's not a bad guy, but is mislead.

I liked Sigma more than Wiley for Mega Man, but Wiley obviously laid more groundwork for evil doctors in future games. I feel Sigma was a more origional boss, though. If Mega Man didn't do the doctor boss, someone else would have. I'm not aware of any other game that makes the boss a computer virus, though.

Good list. It at least hits most of the major villians, even if you don't agree with order. I think a few are left out, but it certainly hits most of the high points.

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
