10 Scariest Ever Video Game Characters

2. Nemesis: Resident Evil 3

That's right, everyone's favorite pixelated stalker comes in at the number 2 spot. Not only was he huge and extremely ugly, he had a tendency to pop up at random times throughout the game to annihilate you. Of course, if the zombified inhabitants of Raccoon City weren't enough, this guy was practically unbeatable. Horribly mutated by the T-Virus, you first encounter this guy outside the RPD where we see what he is capable of (after he gets rid of Brad Vickers, the pilot for Alpha Team STARS members). Those tentacles were so lethal, if you got hit enough by them, you ended up poisoned which provoked a frantic search to find purple herbs. He also carries a rocket launcher, too, as if being chased and poisoned by a hulking mass of zombie mutation wasn't a bad enough way to go. Though being gibbed would be quicker and somewhat more less painless. What made him so scary though was his relentless pursuit of Jill. Nowhere was safe after he first appeared. Turning every corner, you expected him to pop up to make your escape from Raccoon City that even bit more horrifying. And it did. In droves.
