8 Video Game Villains That Helped You Beat Other Bosses

8. Virgil's Arkham Assist - Devil May Cry 3

Alongside Noel and Liam Gallagher, the brothers Sparda carry with them one of the longest sibling rivalries known to man, with each slinging enough sass and salt at one another to make Steve Harvey sweat through one of his Family Feud suits.

It seems to the layman that you couldn't find two beings more diametrically opposed to one another, while ironically both sharing the same pig-headedness and love for the ultra-violence, and thanks to their ideals clashing as hard as their swords, both Dante and Virgil will often find themselves squaring off against one another.

That being said, even these bickering brothers know when it's time to pop the toys back into the pram and use said baby carriage as a hammer on the head of true, world-threatening evil, and have occasionally teamed up to lay the smackdown on whatever evil is floating in the toilet bowl this morning.

Take for example the closing act of Devil May Cry 3, where generic plop-head Arkham is busy spouting his world-ending nonsense before Virgil interrupts and offers Dante a hand. Together the duo proves once and for all how truly unstoppable they would be if they weren't arguing over Monopoly rules at Christmas, and utterly embarrass Arkham, even ending things with each brother taking Ebony and Ivory and shooting Arkham in his big swirly hole.

Sure enough, the truce was short lasting but what a power trip this was.
