The Shivans, in Freespace 1, when you were pretty much fighting a losing battle, it just seemed like the Shivans were the biggest nemesis ever...  Freespace 1 and 2 are still the only games that I have ever gotten butterflies in my stomach due to the story, and fighting against the big bad shivans, and the holy SH!T factor to them, they are just that awesome...  And the shivan are just scary, especially in the hall-fight scene.  I had nightmares about that one...

He gave SG-1 more than a run for their money over... how many seasons was he? I simply cannot attach anything good to the name 'Apophis' anymore. :D

The only thing is... After 14 years of war, when we were totally strapped, with only a very few fighters left, and the shivans came for us... things seemed more desperate. FS1 made me fall in love with the game. FS2 wasn't half as good to me. The technology made things more interresting, and the gameplay was faster paced and the like, and I did enjoy it. But that feeling of exasperation wasn't there. There was only a 14(18?) month war that time around, and many many many more recruits from all of the colonized systems. I find it difficult to believe that with all of the smallscale battles we saw, and all of the resources we had, the best we could come up with is that lame ass cap gun... "colossus"...:doubt:

If you get what I'm trying to say. (32 years of resource gathering and R&D, and we waste it)

Skynet is evil, gave us lot's of terminators!

but the best nememsis has to Khan from Star Trek II.  It is still the best of the Treks, and very few movies have come close to replicating that epic space battle between the Enterprise and the Reliant.

As for the ultimate evil, well this dude is evil:hopping:

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil
