10 Video Games Bosses That Do The Work For You

8. Benny - Fallout: New Vegas

Mass Effect
Bethesda Softworks

Benny from Fallout: New Vegas doesn't so much throw the fight for you as he helps you quietly dispose of him in the dumbest way possible.

When you meet him in the Tops Casino to find the platinum chip and get revenge for getting shot in the head, Benny attempts to ease the situation by offering you to work together. He wants to take you to a private presidential suite to talk business, and although he insists on taking his guards with him, you can convince him to go alone with a fairly simple speech check.

After this, Benny will take you to the suite and lock the doors, essentially leaving himself at your mercy. You don't have to stealthily assassinate him; you don't have to deal with his guards; you don't even have to worry about him running away! And let's not even talk about the option to snap his neck after sleeping with him because having sex with a person you tried to kill before is obviously a great idea!

For a man who supposedly fooled the 200-year-old ruler of New Vegas, Benny seems to be pretty dumb when it comes to self-preservation.
