10 Video Game Characters Too Angry To Die

1. Scorpion - Mortal Kombat

Scorpion is the ultimate angry video game character who refuses to die. He's so angry, that when he dies, he still doesn't die and instead comes back as a hell-spawned undead spectre bent on revenge.

Of course, dying has its perks in the Mortal Kombat universe. We're pretty sure when he was alive he couldn't summon a spear from his hand to pierce enemies and drag them towards him for gruesome kills.

There are many nuances and reboots to Mortal Kombat's continuity, but in the original games, Scorpion has a constant hatred for Sub Zero because our frosty friend was responsible for both betraying Scorpion and killing him too. However, because he's undead, poor Scorpion can't reunite with the family he left behind in Earthrealm, and instead his endless quest for revenge brings him into countless conflicts across the Mortal Kombat universe.

His endless revenge brings him back from the brink of death, wielding fire, his trusty GET OVER HERE spear and countless brutal fatalities ready to use in an instant to dismember, burn or otherwise brutally maim his foes.
