10 Best Video Game Anti-Heroes Of All Time

6. Joel - The Last Of Us

Once, just a loving, kind parent looking after his daughter at home until the fungal apocalypse hit. Now, he's cracking skulls, breaking bones and, in his own way, further destroying the wasteland.

From the start, you see Joel as nothing more than a hero who fell on dark times, but as you progress he becomes more and more heroic until one fatal point drags his heroic status into a downward spiral into Anti-Heroville, possibly even Anti-Villain.

Of course, he just wants what's best for Ellie, even if that means dooming mankind.
