10 Video Game Villains Who SUCK At Being Evil
4. Wheatley - Portal 2
GLaDOS is the main antagonist of the Portal series and the most intimidating villain in both games.
This said, although she is certainly an imposing figure, she really doesn't have any contenders for the greatest villain spot, as the only other bad guy in the series is Wheatley.
Aka "the intelligence dampener."
Making his grand debut in Portal 2, Wheatley starts off as an ally, helping you escape Aperture Science, but after you defeat GLaDOS and give him control over the facility, he becomes corrupted by the power and turns on you.
What separates Wheatley from your original nemesis is his boundless stupidity, which makes him less of an intimidating villain and more of a bumbling fool who's dangerous only because he doesn't have any critical thinking skills.
After he assumes control, he struggles to make functioning test chambers, and unless he steals a puzzle off GLaDOS's old designs, you can pretty much bet something is going to backfire.
His behavior is a deliberate part of his design, as he was originally constructed to act as an "intelligence dampener" for GLaDOS. As a result, he also functions as an interesting contrast to his smarter counterpart, who's more calculated and insidious in her villainous ways.
