there's not much that can compare to
that feeling of seeing a despised
villain meet their fitting end nowhere
in the world of video games will you get
to attain such a sweet gratification
without also going to jail and stay up
there welcome to watchmojo.com and today
we will be counting down our picks for
the top 10 most satisfying villain
deaths in video games I know to
understand for this list we're taking a
look back at some of the most
appreciated deaths to sum of video games
biggest villains the last Cup I had in
this cheer lasted almost 48 oh the
deaths don't necessarily have to be
performed by the hand of the player or
the protagonist but it has to be a
permanent death nonetheless we're
limiting this list to one per franchise
and since we're talking about key
characters kicking the bucket
be wary of spoilers see you right number
10
liquid snake Metal Gear Solid damn
brother
siblings can be such a nuisance at times
this nuisance just happens to be the
cloned twin of brother Solid Snake what
he deceives snake by murdering and
stealing the identity of master Miller
and fooling him into activating Metal
Gear Rex which eventually leads to a
hand-to-hand battle on top of the Rex
oh and he's not dead yet as he's still
around to hunt you down
in an epic car chase and even that
proved not to be enough to end the
deluded menace
during his last attempt to finish snake
his body succumbed to the foxdie virus
that is until the later games when he
then possesses revolver ocelot with a
grafted arm but that turned out to be a
ruse with hypnosis drug nanomachines and
uh you know what forget it
I am liquids doppelganger and you eyes
he's number nine Meister Seymour Final
Fantasy 10 once I have become the next
scene your father will be free again
have you ever met that villain that just
doesn't ever stay dead
well Seymour is that guy not if I can
help it after learning of his treachery
Titus and his party go to kill him and
end up being branded traitors then he
reappears alive now getting married to
Yuna and kills one of Oren's friends in
the process where you fight him again
now he has no worries he has been
granted sleep eternal but he's still
alive
and now wipes out Kumari strife on his
third life allow Kumari to die and
release him from his pain
if tyranny finally comes to an end
inside sin when you des provides him a
long-overdue sending spyro's sorrow will
prevail
number 8 zeus god of war 3 not only was
the end to the legendary Greek god
extremely rewarding but it played out to
be one of the most epic final boss
fights in the franchise after succumbing
to Zeus's betrayal in God of War 2 with
the Blade of Olympus draining his power
Kratos gets the opportunity to give the
king of the gods the beatdown of his
eternal life oh yeah and did we mention
that Zeus was Kratos his father typical
Greek mythology for you our son it's
time after stabbing him rather fittingly
with the blade of Olympus Kratos follows
up by finishing him with his bare hands
Oh number six big smile lead Sleeping
Dogs you did this Lee and I'm coming for
you
a death as gruesome as it was satisfying
this was a full-on statement for the
games overly violent tone protagonists
ways last fight with mob boss big smile
Lee ended in a literal bloodbath when he
throws the Sun on Yi leader into an ice
chipper yeah like we said gruesome the
crime boss was notorious for his
excessive use of violence and torture so
to see him go in such a way earns him a
well-deserved spot don't think of it
number 6 officer Tenpenny grand theft
auto san andreas welcome Wu Chao
glad to be back it never got more
crooked than the crooked police of Los
Santos
although the definitive centerpiece of
the unruliness was no other than officer
Tenpenny new scooter through extortion
and blackmail Tenpenny pulled the
strings to the dirty doings of the city
exclusively using protagonist CJ as his
personal pawn you make sure he never
leaves the neighborhood not even in a
box in ten pennies effort to escape Los
Santos
he's thwarted by CJ in a desperate car
chase crashing and running over an
overpass the broken and battered
Tenpenny suffers a slow death I took the
trash out Aki
and I'd do it all again number five
David the last of us everything happens
for a reason
David leads a faction of cannibals and
comes across le in an ambush by the
infected you had another gun sorry
upon discovering his ill intentions le
attempts to escape but later finds
herself locked in an old abandoned
building with him alone nowhere to go
and what's worse it's implied that he
intends to do other things to her you
have no idea maneuvering herself quickly
to escape le must play the creepiest
game of hide-and-seek ever in a final
desperate struggle le breaks free and
hacks away at his face with his own
machete on top of his grim demise it's
also a relief to see le survive what was
clearly a traumatic experience leave
listen to me I need you to hear this
before what happens next number four the
stranger The Walking Dead Season one you
would have done better that is exactly
what I would have done there's no room
for mercy when it comes to protecting
someone you care for so it came to be a
great pleasure to see this creep get
done it I hate seeing you like this
I just miss your smile honey his name
and origin are unknown for the duration
of the game but he appeared to be
hell-bent on getting revenge on Leigh's
group when he abducts Clementine at the
end of episode 4 we must find her in a
rather disturbing hotel
I got us adjoining rooms eventually Lee
subdues the stranger through a
button-mashing sequence though the final
blow ends up coming from a rather shaken
Clementine
number three Vladimir Makarov call of
duty modern warfare 3
he leads a masker against innocent
civilians to start World War 3 remember
never kidnapped the Russian president
and he used his daughter to get his
country to invade Europe oh and it turns
out he was responsible for that nuke in
the first modern warfare game damn right
this bastard deserves to die
what happens here today will change the
world forever he is eventually killed by
Captain Price in a brutal scene where
he's beaten through a glass roof and
then hung by a straight court that's
some justice
a close second was the heroic hill where
soap pulled a knife out of his own chest
and then threw it to take down general
Shepard in modern warfare 2
number two the nemesis resident evil 3
nemesis this abomination haunts diehard
Resident Evil fans to this day
persistence isn't even strong enough a
word to describe this bio-organic weapon
with its sole purpose being to
relentlessly hunt down and kill the
stars members specifically gel Valentine
with a heavy emphasis on relentlessly
throughout the game this thing
constantly pursues and attacks you no
matter how many bullets you pump into
him Jill finally ends the monster by
pumping a full round of magnums into his
head thus finally ending the nightmare
you want stars before we unveil our pick
for the most satisfying villain death in
a video game here are a few honorable
mentions
you number one
Edgar Ross Red Dead Redemption oh my god
they killed him the man who kidnapped
John Marsten's wife and son in order to
use John to take out his old gang was a
clear no brainer for number one you sent
him to do your dirty work then you shot
him like a dog it was bad enough that
this guy used John's family to do the
government's dirty deed but what was
worse was he later tried to have John
and his family killed to cover up his
actions although John sacrificed his
life to ensure that his wife and son
escaped witnessing that same son get his
revenge many years later as a young man
was all the more satisfying do you agree
