Top Ten Villains This Generation

This console generation has been full of memorable journeys that pit good vs. evil, David vs. Goliath, spaghetti vs. milk, etc... With that in mind, we felt compelled to compile our favourite villains of the last several years, in alphabetical order.

[mephman]

There have been a ton of good ones, although I would have probably preferred Vidic to Rodrigo Borgia.

[MintBerryCrunch]

even tho he wasnt the main villain...Scarecrow in AA was the best in the game imo....

*SPOILERS*

pretty sad when Killer Croc basically ripped him to shreds

[Syaz1]

he's not dead actually.

[ShawnCollier]

GlaDOS has to be one of my most favorite villains ever.

[JDouglasGU]

dr. fetus is god!

[Sanrin]

I really need to play that game...

[JDouglasGU]

you really should, it's fantastic.

[Hardedge]

The only one on that list that truly scares me is GLaDOS.

[tweex]

Pope Alexader, the man had it coming.... :)

[Relientk77]

Agree with Zoran Lazarevic and Rodrigo Borgia (Pope Alexander VI)

great villians

[SpartanPrince]

Zoran better be there. He was a great man-no compassion...no mercy...he had the will.

[LarVanian]

King Bohan and Visari are two of my fav villains this gen.

[SeraphimBlade]

Hell yeah! Bohan!

[VenomProject]

Did anyone else lol when they saw "The Marker?" XD

The Red Marker is seriously a good "villain" when you think about it; the thing mind-f*cks you to the point where you hallucinate about your loved ones. Not to mention it creates tons of undead baddies if it's activated and there are corpses nearby.

[SeraphimBlade]

A lot of these guys deserve a bit more than three sentences, and some I would argue don't belong on this list.

I'd go with the feds from RDR. 2 reasons: first reason's obvious if you beat the game, second is the fact that after making a guy kill all his old friends and half of the frontier population, it takes BALLS to make a cheap joke and tell him his wife his dead.

The Darkness from, well, the Darkness: the only thing more threatening than a good villain is a bad partner. It'll help you out, lend you incredible power; but what it wants isn't clear and by the end of the first act, it's obvious it doesn't share your goals. Play it! So we can all be disappointed when the sequel comes out. (Yeah, I really don't have a lot of confidence in it for some reason)

[FiftyFourPointTwo]

I like Destroyman. One of my faves this gen.

[Syaz1]

i thought saren deserved to be on the list.

[rybobales]

Reapers dude. He was controlled by them.

[gypsygib]

Not too many stand out villains this gen, it's all about the hero's - I like it the other way around.

A good villain makes for a great story.
