10 Flawless Video Game Villains Who Deserved To Win

10. The Colossi - Shadow Of The Colossus

Anyone who has played either the original or remake version of Shadow of the Colossus will know how less-than-ambiguous the actions of the player are from a moral standpoint.

Trekking across the Forbidden Land, players are tasked with killing sixteen huge idols in order to resurrect their dead girlfriend. Right from the off, however, the game makes it known that these bosses aren't the real villains of the piece - you are.

Coming in all manner of wondrous shapes and sizes, the Colossi are shown to be wholly innocent beings, existing off the land for countless years longer than Wander. It's a unique dynamic, and one that is sure to leave a foul taste lingering with the player after every boss they slay.

Sadly, the only way of making sure the innocent Colossi are able to continue living on is by simply putting the controller down and leaving the game alone, which... is a far less fun experience.
