10 Most Ridiculous Gaming Cameos

1. Joffrey Baratheon (Borderlands 2)

Just as soon as we thought we€™d seen the back of the little blighter after the Purple Wedding, Joffrey Baratheon reappears every time you play Borderlands 2 and is €“ regrettably €“ unkillable as the Vault Hunters €˜aren€™t in the business of killing children€™. Gearbox may have made the subtle decision to change his name to King Jeffrey, but aside from this minor details the bratty ruler is unchanged. You must fight through a unit of four of his guards in a hall very reminiscent of the throne room in Game of Thrones before taking out his henchmen Canine and Mohill (Canine being an obvious nod to the Hound and Mohill the Mountain). The voice actor who played King Jeffrey even got Jack Gleeson€™s smarmy, hateable accent to a tee. After fending off his henchmen you are challenged to a duel-to-the-death with the king. However, true to his nature, a single hit is all it takes for the coward to yield and you are then free to teach him a lesson by slapping away at him to your heart€™s content, a la Tyrion Lannister. Thank you for allowing us to put the beating on Joffrey he has always deserved Gearbox €“ for this ridiculous, yet highly enjoyable cameo, you deserve the number one spot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uK7sBkmGSEI
