Favorite Video Game Bosses

[Nathander]

1. Kefka Palooza (FF VI):

Really, saying anything more would just reiterate what's already been said by some others. So nuff said.

(Plus, Kefka beats Sephiroth, hands down)

2. Wilhelm (Xenosaga):

While you never fight the man himself, he's easily one of the best, and most mysterious, villains in a videogame. His list of crimes include the destruction of worlds and propagation of a species of alien beings that serve as the greatest threat mankind has ever known in that universe. Easily a contender for one of the best villains.

3. Gannondorf (Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time):

Of all his incarnations, I think the take on Gannon here was the most interesting, especially vian showing that he used Machiavellian methods in order to attain his goal of taking over Hyrule in this incarnation instead of brute force, as he had usually done.

4. Bowser (Super Mario Bros. Series):

One of the biggest staples of videogame villains and one of the best of them. Period.

5. Cardinal Albert Simon (Shadow Hearts):

In my mind, Kato was one of the more complex villains in videogames. IN all honesty, it's hard to talk about the character without giving away most of the game, as well as it's sequel Shadow Hearts: Covenant, and that would be a big no-no. This is because the Shadow Hearts games are games everyone must play.
