[SadisticSid]

SHODAN (System Shock)
Creepy sentient AI with all ethical constraints removed. And connected to mining lasers, biological mutators and an army of robots and cyborgs - recipe for absolute evil, no? And a voice that sends shivers down your spine, naturally.

Irenicus (Baldur's Gate 2)
Not the most original villain but with David Warner doing the voice together with his fascination with stealing souls and slaughtering prissy elves he makes for quite a good character.

Sephiroth (Final Fantasy VII)
He just looks so cool and has the most ridiculously long katana thing ever. Better than all the other FF villains I've seen so far

[Janos]

Mechahitler
LINK (Beneath a Steel Sky)
GS343

[Primus]

Shivans
NTF
DS

...It seems that FS2 is the only game I play... Can't think of anybody/anything else to be my fav nemesis...

[Nico]

Constantine, from Dark Project
And yeah, Kane. kane was cool.

[Jetmech Jr.]

No particular Order:

Shivan (FS2- yeah, they're the big 5 legged spider things with super ships...just in case you didn't know)

Skeith (.hack INFECTION- A Manifestation that looks like hes made of cratered rock, and has this wicked staff. The music that plays when you fight him is unmatched)

Sephiroth (Final Fantasy 7- Black cloak, silver hair, and a sword roughly 2 times as long as he is tall)

Hmm...they all start with S's. Odd...

[Roanoke]

Not a game, but Kageshima Anotsu from Blade of the Immortal is a cool nemesis.

Shodan from Shock deserves a mention too. Oh and Akuma fron Street Fighter 2.

[mitac]

1. The tunnel towards the core of Death Star 2 in XWA. Made me bite my keyboard.
2. Shodan.
3. That super-laser-station in the last Starlancer mission.

I'm a big fan of Bowser too. I mean the guy contantly gets his arse handed to him but he's never a sore loser. He's also always ready to join in with the golf, karting, tennis or whatever. You know what I'm saying? The guy doesn't hold grudges. And he's always ready to have another go at Peach (who wouldn't, she's hot). He's got patience and imagination. All in all, Bowser has my respect and makes for a sound role model for villains everywhere

Shodan (System Shock)
Kerrigan (StarCraft)

Irenicus + Saravok (Baldur's Gate 1&2)
Brenden Corbit (MechWarrior 3)

[Nuclear1]

• Kerrigan (Starcraft; just something about her that makes me giggle with evil)
• Bosch (FS2; not exactly as an evil bugger; just because he was a villain that didn't fall in with the rest of game nemesi)
• To agree with Bob, Robotnic (hey, anyone who traps little furry animals in giant eggshells and has those funky vehicle-turned-helicopters is bad***)
• Orcs (WC series; 1st and 2nd, actually; Undead happen to be the best for WC3)
• Morgan Tech (Derelict; hey, it had to be mentioned)

[diamondgeezer]

Now this guy... this guy I've had actual genuine nightmares about...

Resident Evil 2, right? Yeah, he scared the crap outta me on the second run through the RCPD station with Claire.

[Roanoke]

Fighting him in as the Umbrella Agent was interesting. There I was, with little health, two Magnum Rounds and the Pistol in the tight corridor leading to the Helicopter crash on the cop shop roof.

I was pluggin' away, fully expecting to die, when he collapsed, like, 1 foot away from me.

[diamondgeezer]

I never did complete that bit, I couldn't get past the plant monsters. I was a whizz at the Mercenary game in RE3, mind.

Nah, that Tyrant variant is literally the stuff of my nightmares. He just... won't... STOP. I've dreamed of being chased by him more than once.

When he first crashed down through the roof after being dropped in by helo, I heard him comming and prepped me shotgun. Suddenly this huge figure appears around the corner and I remember actually yelling out "hold it right there or I'll drop you". When I laid the smackdown on him and he didn't die, I fair shat meself

And then at the end of RE3 you come across a room with several dead mercs and three or four dead Tyrants and you just think "oh ****ing hell"...

I soiled my pants after I had to fight him the second time... Walking through the halls with Claire, shotgun with acid shells ready, suddenly the music gets quiet, then a little tense... I keep walking, and suddenly, out of nowhere, in the silence, BOOM! Through the wall that big metal bastard came... I jumped off the bed.

A game has never scared me like that game did.

[diamondgeezer]

Oh, yeah, when he burst through that wall I literally screamed
