There is a notorious IGN top 100 list from the year 2010, going over the top video game villains. Some of it is expected. The aliens from Space Invaders. Bowser. Ganondorf. Some of it is weird, but acceptable. King Hippo, for example. However, some of this bends the known understanding of "video game villain". Number six may shock you.
