"Baddest" video game villains

And I second the fact that the Tyderium mission is hard. The blasted commandoes wouldn't take off, and when I called Rogue Squadron in, they didn't come! Easy way to commit suicide.

It's some kind of glitch on this mission. It's also happened to me a few times. I'm not sure why it happens. Maybe if you get impatient and take off before the commandoes give you the green light or if you undock prematurely. The mission isn't too hard if everything works right and you immediately take care of the bombers and other fighters that go after Tyderium. Rogue Squadron creates enough of a diversion to take a few fighters of your back while you're goiung after the bombers. The turrets help a great deal too.

 

I haven't seen him mentioned yet, so I'll put in a good word for him...

Sarevok from Baldur's Gate, and props for him being able to join your party in the expansion to BG2, Throne of Bhaal.

 

Dracula at the end of the Castlevania games.

Golbez from FFIV (I can't believe no one's mentioned this one, he's one of the baddest asses around, till the end where he mellows out)

The Big Floating Heads (whatever they're called) from Xenogears

Nightmare from Devil May Cry 1
