Line 81:
* ''[[Dragon Age]]'' ogres are a type of darkspawn created from qunari. They have horns and look like wingless demons but are otherwise typical examples of The Ogre.
* ''[[Final Fantasy X]]'' had an Ogre as [[Underground Monkey|the first in a series of hairy muscular humanoids]] that use physical attacks and counters.
* In ''[[EverQuest]]'', ogres are large, muscular, stupid humanoids who [[You No Take Candle|not speak too good]]. The stupidity came about as a result of being cursed by the Gods of good. In EverQuest 2, the Gods had all left, and one of the effects was that the ogre's curse was lifted, turning them into a race of [[Genius Bruiser|Genius Bruisers]]s.
* Enemy ogres in [[Dungeon Crawl]] are [[Glass Cannon|Glass Cannons]]s who can't take damage quite as well as they can deal it due to lack of armor, and playable ogres are much the same. Of note, however, is that ogres make surprisingly good mages; an [[Genius Bruiser|ogre mage]] is a fearsome foe, and a legitimate character build in the [[Magic Knight]] vein.
* The Super Mutants seem to fill this role in the post-apocalyptic setting of [[Fallout 3]]. Super mutants from the other games are more akin to "Blizzard" orcs than ogres.
* Ogres have appeared in many of the [[Heroes of Might and Magic]] games.

== [[Western Animation]] ==
* In ''[[Disney]]'s [[Adventures of the Gummi Bears]]'', there is an army of villainous ogres residing in Castle Drekmore and led by Duke Igthorn, who attempt to conquer King Gregor and Dunwyn Castle. They are almost all hulking morons, with the exception of Igthorn's majordomo Toadwart (who is as tall as a human child and of average intelligence) and Toadwart's cousin Tadpole (who is a genius--andgenius—and shorter still).
* In ''[[The Smurfs]]'' animated series, an ogre named Bigmouth occasionally befriended the title characters while making life for the evil wizard Gargamel difficult.
* ''[[Family Guy]]'' had that episode where a salesman tries to sell beach front property terrorized by an ogre.
