14 Greatest Video Game Villains Of The Decade (So Far)
3. Handsome Jack - Borderlands 2 (2012)
Handsome Jack doesn't give two sh*ts about how a villain is supposed to act - he just does his thing and expects you to go along with it. Unfortunately for you, his 'thing' usually entails him trying to kill you with various machinations created by the Hyperion corporation, but it's your duty to defy him and rile him up - that's when Jack's ugly side shows up. Yeah, Jack's not a particularly big fan of Vault Hunters (read: he hates the little scrotes) after what Lilith did to his original face, making it his mission to become a global jackass and enforce his rule on an entire planet from the safety of a weaponised moon. Credit to the guy though, he shows good sport and humour in his countless efforts to put you six feet under. Everything's a game to Jack, even if he loses, he's the first one to make a joke of the whole thing. Unfortunately, if you lose, you're kind of dead.
