10 Video Game Characters Who Completely Dropped The Ball

1. Benny - Fallout: New Vegas

Fallout: New Vegas Benny Thumb
Bethesda Softworks

Given that Benny shoots you in the head to start out New Vegas, you sort of know in your heart that you're going to be given the chance to kill him at some stage in the game.

You get an especially interesting chance to kill him, though, if you have the Black Widow perk - which allows you to do ten percent extra damage against male enemies, and unlocks some extra saucy dialogue options.

One of these options is the chance to flirt and then proposition Benny - you know, the same Benny who shot you in the head and left you for dead, and who happens to be voiced by Chandler Bing. Do you want to sleep with Chandler Bing who tried to kill you?

If for some god forsaken reason you still answered yes, you're in luck, because you totally can. The Black Widow option also lets you kill Benny afterwards, in an entirely obvious moment he really, really should have seen coming.

In short, if you shoot someone in the head with a bullet and then they rock up at your place asking to bone down, it's worth considering that they're either here for vengeance, or an angry ghost looking to steal your genitals - and neither scenario is good.
