Line 160:
* Pigma Dengar from ''[[Star Fox]]'' has his fair share of entertaining moments, but he's a lot less likable than his Star Wolf wingmen and even Andross himself. A total swine of a man [[Pig Man|in more ways than one]], Pigma was a loyal member of the original Star Fox team before selling them out to Andross and playing a role in the death of James McCloud. He's disgustingly proud of being a greedy traitor, and cruelly taunts Fox, James' son, by ''making fun of his dying screams''. When you shoot him down during the boss fights against Star Wolf, it's hard not to smile when he whines and complains about his misfortune.
* Dr. Barnaby from ''[[Dead Rising]]'' isn't a likable character. Admittedly, it wasn't wrong for him to try genetically engineeeing cattle. Americans do need to eat, even if one could consider Americans to be gluttonous without really sounding racist. But while Carlito ended up going completely insane from what he saw after witnessing Barnaby unintentionally create zombies (more or less), Barnaby decides not to regret anything. So he ends up becoming a zombie himself, because Barnaby was more or less intended to be Carlito’s first victim. The Willamette Mall was a trap for him.
* The '''[[Dragon Age]]'' franchise has plenty of despicable jerks, but Arl Rendon Howe from ''[[Dragon Age: Origins]]'' is arguably the worst. While Loghain at least [[Well-Intentioned Extremist|has an understandable reason]] for his evil deeds, his underling Howe (his dismissive smugness portrayed ''excellently'' by VA [[Tim Curry]]) is little more than a power hungry coward; players who choose Human Noble origin are likely to hate him the most, where his betrayal of the PC's father is there for all to see and [[Quisling]] behavior is the most pronounced. The man is even willing to murder children to fulfill his selfish goals. While you are able to gain revenge - and a great deal of Catharsis - later, he maintains his [[Entitled Bastard]] delusions to his final breath, and a lot of players were upset that they couldn't make his death more agonizing than it was.
