10 Simple Ways To Make Gaming's Bad Guys Better

April 19, 2009 in Top List comments 8

Gaming's grunts aren't the sharpest tools in the shed. No matter what genius villain's orders they are following, they will always end up being mowed down by the hundreds due to their own stupidity. So how should this be fixed? Gamesradar have a few ideas.

(Go to the source for the full list)

We've killed countless enemies in our time playing games. Thousands. Maybe even millions. We like to think it's because we're full of skill, but the truth is that gaming's grunts just aren't that smart. It's almost like they want to be shot to bits or blown to pieces. So to even things up a bit for the recruits of gaming's axis of evil - whether terrorist, Nazi or hostile alien - here are 10 simple steps to being a better videogame bad guy.

    Lol at the article pic.

    That was actually one of the best lists I've seen in a long time; easy to read due to being nothing but images, and it was all true! I laughed at "secure your helmet securely".

    Kind of funny, but not exactly original.

    Still at least it was images, a bit of a change

    For the longest time I was a grunt working for EvilDudes Inc, and for that time I was just another cog in the machine. I tried many things in my career but I could not gain the upper hand against my enemies.

    But then I tried the 10 Step Bad Guy Improvement Programme, and my life was turned around. After applying all that I had learned from this easy course to my work my efforts were noticed by the higher powers and I received a long overdue promotion to end-of-level boss. One day I hope to reach the elusive goal of ultimate antagonist, and I know with this programme's help I can make it.

    I did it, so can you!

    It's a good list, probably make the games funner if it was acted on.

    Haha Well sure it'd make for a better challenge, but I actually hope for and look forward to enemies like that. For pure humour actually. Especially the first one with the red barrels

    Define better. If you mean making a game so hard that it would take you 5 hours to beat the final boss, then no.

      Nope, just making the game hard enough that you can't run through it with just a pistol and not die once.
