[JaceArveduin]

You all forgot Bard's Tale, how could you?

 

[Continuity]

Are there any Video games where the MAIN villain of the game is female?

Game I just finished today: Bioshock 2 (Lamb)

Plus... let me think...

FEAR (Alma)
Portal (Glados)
Deadspace (

Spoiler

Kendra possibly? shes certainly a primary antagonist

)

Just of the top of my head. I'm sure there will be lots more.

It's not final boss stuff, but Maleficent was a big bad in the Kingdom hearts series.

Nox. Look it up.

So i was wondering this , after thinking about batman, in Arkham assylum , the Joker is the main villain , but he has 'supporting' female villains ( Harley quinn and poison ivy ) .

So my question is:

Are there any Video games where the MAIN villain of the game is female?

also for discussion value , would you like to see more female villains ( main villains or supporting villains ) in video games. Do you think it could add to video game story telling? Why do you think the 'bad guy ' is most of the time a male ?

Kotor 2's main villian was an old granny.

And frankly I'd like to see more GOOD villians. Don't care if they're male or female.

Apart from the games already mentioned previously there is also Two Worlds 2 that has a female main villain which gets revealed at the end(won't spoil it who).

 

[WanderingFool]

Well, the one I can think of right now is...

Spoiler: Deus Ex: Human Revolution spoilers, Read at your own risk

Zhao Yun Ru

She basically was working with a Illuminati group, but was doing most of the heavy lifting in game it seemed; launching the attack against Sarif (both attacks), taking control of the Augment industry... you even fight her in the end.

Im pretty sure the Alien Queen is a female if she counts? hehe. A lot of mothers in nature are the nastiest beasts, like dairy cows o.o

Tomb Raider 1 (and the Anniversary remake) with Jacqueline Natla

Also Tomb Raider Legends with Amanda Evert

The DS version of Chrono Trigger had possessed Schala as one of the final bosses, so that could count.

 

[Jak23]

Uncharted 3, it's not out yet but it's all I got.

 

[milo2215]

Uhh....Star Wars Bounty Hunter?

 

[MurderousToaster]

System Shock 1 and 2 with Shodan? Technically an AI but spoke with a female voice and face and was very female (concerned with Offspring etc)

I apologise, I have not played System Shock, but...uh... now all I can think of is this when I see the game's name, but with "guy" replaced with "AI".

 

[Blood Countess]

Kid Icarus had Medusa from the NES if anyone missed that one and didn't MGS 3 have one too

 

[Lunar Templar]

The entire Breath of Fire series.

only 1 an 3

2 had you against against Death Evan
4 had you against Fu-Lu
and *swats* we do not speak of 5 *swats*

 

[wetfart]

Aveyond 2 had a female villain. The last chapter of Aveyond 3 had a female villain too. I'd highly recommend them both.

 

[Joel Dawson]

Gruntilda from the Banjo and Kazooie games

 

[neonsword13-ops]

Uncharted 3 will.

Kind of a hot villian, actually.

 

[Frozen Donkey Wheel2]

Prey, looks like Uncharted 3 does, Bioshock 2, Portal....And that's all I got right now.

I would mention inFamous, but I'm not sure if that's entirely true as the final boss is

Spoiler: inFamous's final boss

your future self.

How would the main villain of that game be a woman in any way? I mean, the FIRST boss is a woman, but she's certainly not the main villain. She's barely even a character.
