We first meet Eddie bent over a toilet seat, puking his guts up with his butt crack proudly on display. A rather large man who has been bullied and laughed at his entire life, Eddie is a rather whiney and unmotivated gentleman. At one point in the game he is with the young girl Laura when she runs off. Rather than follow, Eddie sits in place shovelling pizza down his throat.

It is hinted throughout the game that Eddie has killed his bully but we eventually find out he even failed to do that; instead just wounding his bully in the leg and killing his dog. Unfortunately, killing defenceless animals doesn't win you big points on the villain scale, Eddie. Even videogame bosses think that's uncool.

Eddie eventually snaps and tries to kill James Sunderland inside a large meat freezer but this goes about as well as trying to make tea in a chocolate teapot and he is defeated easily. Even in death, Eddie is relegated to being a loser.
