Line 297:
* ''[[Resident Evil]]'' may have one of the best villains in video games with Albert Wesker, but also has one of the worst with Ramon Salazar from the fourth game. He claims to be a 20-year-old man who has been prematurely aged by the Plagas, but acts like a whiny 8 year old. The one edge he has is [[Plot Armor]], as the storyline seems to go out of its way to make up reasons why time after time, Leon is unable shoot the little brat and end the threat once and for all.
* [[Mega Corp|Majestic]], from ''[[Destroy All Humans!]]''. What does it say in a game with a name like ''that'' when the genocidal alien looks more competent and more ethical than his human foes? Majestic is a large international organization dedicated to defeating the Furons, while secretly plotting their own goals of [[Take Over the World| world domination.]] Thing is, the Furon invasionary force consists of… [[Easy Logistics| one guy, the protagonist, Crypto]]. For all their highly-trained agents and cutting edge technology, Majestic - A [[Non-Indicative Name]] if there ever was one - can’t capture or defeat this one alien. Seriously.
* Zsasz is a villain who appears in ''every'' game in the ''[[Batman: Arkham Asylum]]'' series, and he's lame in ''all'' of them. He has no motivation whatsoever (other than kill anyone he comes across) and is almost laughably easy to defeat. If his "plan" involves hiding from Batman, there will be about a hundred ways the player can spot him, and if it involves combat, he'll be floored in one punch. Even compared to most [[Jobber]] opponents in video games, he's pathetic.
