10 Most Psychotic Gaming Heroes You Should Be Creeped Out By
9. Mario
Did you ever notice that, especially in older games, you don't actually have to do much killing? Sure there are bosses and certain gatekeepers, but the vast majority of enemies can simply be run past and avoided. But you don't do that, though do you? No matter how inconsequential an enemy, you simply must squash them. Crush them. Erase them from existence. These Goombas and Koopa Troopas are just walking around minding their own business. Ok, so they are lethal to the touch, but they're never the aggressors. Hell, a downed Koopa Shell is more deadly than a walking one, but you dont care. You've already made that Mario a monster. But he was always sick in the head. He was just after an excuse to go gallivanting through the Mushroom Kingdom robbing it of its precious resources. Princess? Dont make us laugh. That princess is nothing more than the WMDs of the Mario World. An excuse to go rampaging through an unstable foreign land, plundering all the wealth from the local populace. Why do you think she was so easy to kidnap? Shes no more than a piece of propaganda in an ideological war dreamt up by greedy fungi and malevolent, Mediterranean plumbers.
