10 Video Game Protagonists So Powerful They Became Gods

In Spore, the galaxy-sized evolution simulator, you already play as the god of your created species. You guide them through every step of their evolution, watching as they slowly develop their intelligence amidst constant death, famine, and warfare.

No one said being a god was easy.

It can be fun to play as the divine guide of your species, but what if you wanted the species to become the gods of their own universe as well? Well, it's actually possible. You just have to reach the center of the Spore galaxy.

Both the main goal of the game and its greatest mystery, the center of the galaxy holds a secret that is capable of infusing any of your playable creatures with diving powers—a little spaceship by the name of Steve.

Despite his small size and ordinary name (apologies to all the Steves out there), Steve is an entity responsible for creating new life in the entire universe. He’s also a really nice guy, which is why, when you meet him, he graciously bestows a portion of his godlike powers on your creatures and allows them to become the new creators of the universe with him.

Ah! Thanks, Steve!
