Evil charachters you can't help but like

[Yureina]

Sarevok (Baldur's Gate 1/2), Jon Irenicus (Baldur's Gate 2), and President Eden (Fallout 3) are all personal favorite gaming villains of mine. There are many more, of course, but those three are ones that I remember the most often.

Well, if it wasn't for this being the Gaming Forum it would be easy to say Omar Little and Al Swearengen wouldn't it. I may even see the fourth Pirates film because of Ian McShane. In games though, Shodan springs to mind because she is so unmistakably awesome.

Oh just re-read that non-game examples are good too.

Omar Little and Al Swearengen then, easy.

Don't worry. Omar counts, even in this forum. He's in the game, haven't you heard?

I only like evil characters to be honest... i mean theres no good story/movie/game without a great villain.

Oh, and President Eden from Fallout 3. I like them all.

I found it incredibly hard to hate the Enclave.

Okay, so !!spoilers alert!! they kill your dad and take his life's work !!spoiler end!!, but they didn't seem that bad, because a lot of what they did was usually for the greater good, and they were the remains of the US government. Their goodness was reinforced by how intelligently you speak with President Eden.
