Favorite Game Villain
 

Any game, any console. Explain why.

Kuja.

Here are the main reason: beautiful, smart, poetic, powerful and he became much more then he was suposed to.
(Zidane was suposed to be MUCH stronger then Kuja but Kuja power is just to much for Zidane.)

Ghaleon, from the Lunar series on Playstation. He had tons of character, motive, and was just plain old badass.

Gamecube/PS2: Naruto

Orochimaru

He has a variety of jutsus, have just about the coolest design, and he has his own village!

Jek Baron, my character in in Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic.... badass, he is an unstopable force, a ruthless killer, and the Sith Lord.

:edit: dont you just love games where you are the villian?

He definitely ranks up there.

As for favourite game villain, I'd say SHODAN from the System Shock games. Cold, merciless and cunning, she was an almost unstoppable machine and the best part is that she was always manipulating you to do her bidding, whether you knew it or not.

Sephiroth, but for the sake of origianality i'll go with Tyrant/Nemisis from the RE series. When he dropped through the roof in RE2 I nearly pissed myself.

Sephiroth, because he's one of the most twisted individuals out there, not to mention he has a kickass sword and can incinerate towns and take pleasure in it.

Oh, the villain in Max Payne 2 was interesting as well, as the storyline made you hate him, yet accept his motives at times. It was just strange altogether.

Jack Lupino you mean? The guy who went crazy?

For my style of thinking, there hasn't been a videogame villain that I am truly satisfied with let alone one I consider my favorite. I'm just waiting for videogames to accept darker themes.

For now I'll have to go with Kain, because he has no mercy.

The main problem I find with most game villains is that they have no understandable motivations for their actions. I actually like villains I can sympathise with and heros who are close to being villains themselves.
