Wesker's RE5 incarnation. Having to hear that atrocious dialogue over 20 times as my fingers grew ever number from pressing X to not die awakened strange feelings within me.

Gonna have to go with Rico from Killzone 2. I read in the ESRB description that one character commits suicide, and by the end of the game I was seriously hoping it would be him. But NO, instead
Rico kills the only two likeable characters in the whole game thanks to his excess of testosterone and lack of any restraint.

Rico - Killzone 2

I don't think there is any other NPC in the history of gaming that causes you to FAIL your overarcing objective at the end of the game, unavoidably and for no reason at all. The entire point behind the whole mission was to take Visari alive. God knows how many ISA and Helgast troops died fighting for or against that objective, but your faithful companion Rico succeeds in making the entire preceding campaign meaningless.

In all of gaming, is there any other NPC scripted to make you LOSE at the end in a cutscene?

While that may be the final straw, people have already covered the litany of very reasonable complaints regarding his character and behavior prior to that.

King Jerk goes to Rico.
Killzone 3: Court Martial! Yaaaaay!

...actually, I'd love to write the script for that. As long as the plot doesn't involve freeing the jerk.

EDIT: Sorry for double post.

Magnusson from Episode 2 is a top contender, but I think he's beaten by every single helicopter pilot from the Resident Evil games. They always get like eaten or something and can never pick you up, the lazy bastards.

The Arbiter. Especially in Halo 3. He's nowhere to be seen. You kill a scarab or two, then he pops in practically saying "Hey! Chief! You need help fighting the bad guy?" Or he drives you into a wall. Or he shoots at 2 dead grunts while a pair of hunters are charging right at you. Or he throws a grenade at a ghost. A fucking ghost! It's not like he thinks it'll drive away!

That damn ***** in the beginning of Dead Rising. The old annoying lady who screeches in your face, "Wheres my dog!? WHERES My DOG!!?".
She sees the ugly little poodle right outside the barricade that is keeping thousands of zombies out of the mall.... so she starts ripping apart the barricade.
Two survivors, both men, try to stop her from getting everyone killed, but she throws them off, somehow.
She gets through the barricade, gets eaten alive before she can even reach her ugly dog who looks undead anyway, and then the zombies pour in, filling the mall, and essentially making life hell on earth for those trapped in the mall.

From the first time I saw her, I hated her. To me, she was like the combination of every typical, spoiled rotten, ungrateful, selfish, and retarded "fellow" Americans I see every day. But after she fucks up everything by wreaking the barricade for her stupid dog, she elevates herself to a whole new level, and became my most hated character in gaming history.

If her NPC was still alive after that cut-scene, the minute it switched to game-play, I'd beat it to death with a lead pipe. Every time I played that game and got to that part, I'd beat her again. Every birthday of mine, I'd wake up early, load that part of the game, and brutally murder her until she shuts up and dies.

I HATE HER, and she's such a jerk.
Oh, yeah. Her. What a *****.

No, not the dog.

Frank Fontaine...such a mind controlling douchebag.
Yes, yes, yes, and again YES, these are the biggist group of assholes and douchebags of any game

I might say rico fom KZ2 but I've never played it so... meh
KZ2 had a story, when did this happen(good humor, good humor). Rico was...Gears 2 "manchild" worthy. Not really a douchebag...not enough character there to be a douchebag.

Thank you. I KNEW I wasn't the only one that thought "Man, this guy is a dick. Why can't I shoot him, that irony would be palatable."
Definitely.
Well of course, I hated him to the point where I wish he was still around after the game ended so I could kill him, but, no luck. *sad face*

Wesker for obvious reasons

oh and that basterd Navarro
WHAT! Wesker is epic! He's a zombie ninja, what more do you want? Oh and I'm gonna go with Fontaine from Bioshock but I didn't really think about it for long.
Im not saying he isn't epic, and he's more like a zombie Neo, what im saying is, that generally the man is an asshole in personality

Rico from KZ2 is so dislikable
Oh, ok and yeah neo is a good way to describe him.

Shama Llama from Destroy all Humans!2. He isn't too bad at the start, but by the end when he attempts to take over the cult hes just a jerk. Fun to kill though >:D.
