10 Most INFURIATING Enemies In Horror Video Games

BioShock’s Big Daddies are one of the most iconic video game enemies of all time. Easily recognisable with their bulky diving suits and enormous drill arm, facing one of these was no easy task. Fighting a Big Daddy was the price to pay if players wanted to get the valuable ADAM from the Little Sisters whom they protect.

Playing as one of these gigantic brutes in the second game meant that the developers needed to create a foe that would be a challenging fight for the toughest enemies from the previous game. What they come up with was the Big Sister.

The result of what happens when a Little Sister passes puberty, these new enemy types will protect their younger siblings in the same way as Big Daddies did. But thanks to their affinity with ADAM, these older sisters are stronger, faster, and more agile than the hulking behemoths that players were used to facing. Equipped with wrist-mounted blades for close-range melee attacks and the ability to use plasmids at range, these enemies are serious threats.

Each encounter with them was like a mini boss fight, and players will know exactly when a Big Sister arrives thanks to their terrifying, ear-peircing shrieks.
