The reason Lelouch is definitely the hero is that


Though it is up to personal interpretation, obviously.

Anyway, I'd say me.

Kefka.
Why has nobody given him any love yet?

The man is absolutely out of his bloody mind. He destroys the world... and then takes it over!
Let's not forget that he is a clown who rolls with the nation's elite. And that's pretty damn cool.

<----This guy (As in Char Aznable, not me). Darth Vader took "cool bad guys" to a new level though.

Doopliss from paper mario, for the following reasons.

1: Heh has his powers not because he got them somehow or inheited them or whatnot, he has them for been him.

2: Despite him being a super villan slowly transforming a town into pigs he chills out by watching some television in a evil tower thing.

3: Killing him is actually exactly what he wants. Because if you kill him while he is mimicing you, then he possesses you and shoves you into his replica of you. The only way to break it is to know his name, which is damn hard to find out.

4: He has a very distinctive way of talking. He keeps calling you "slick".

ARGHHH.
I hated that guy.
Freaking name and having to find the letters and spell it.
One time where my bad spelling has cost me 2 hours in a game.

Darth Vader. He has the look, the intimidation, and the powers. He has been cited as one of the most memorable face of evil throughout film and fiction. he's even voiced by James Earl Jones. He is the man.

Saren of Mass Effect. He's a Turian, he looks awesome, and there's a lot more behind him than you would originally think. Plus I actually felt bad for him at the end.

The Milkman. (Psyconauts)

Milkman is not a bad guy. He was more like the guards oppressed creation of he's psyche. And i don't remember him doing anything bad. I agree that that guy is awesome, but he's not a bad guy.

I don't remember anything, so i call for the Russian guy (Vladimir?), because he's awesome. He's always calm, he rescues you (i think), he shot's of guys with one arm (he had broken arm), he shot you in the head, blows up stuff and make's EEEEvil plots, like a batboy suit with dynamite in it... oh and ....spoiler alert.

But Hans Landa is more of a neutral.Sure he is a general for the third Reiche.But he is ready to give away his commanding officers.

I'd say Vergil from Devil May Cry 3 was pretty cool, although the coolest bad guy ever, in my opinion, is Kingdom Hearts's Luxord.

Revolver Ocelot from MGS. He is just perfect. He has been a tripple-bloody-agent.. even quad agent. Just brilliant.

The Devil in his many incarnations, no doubt about it.

That doesn't mean what he does isn't horrible and evil and all, ofc :P.

Yeah, he wasn't that bad either...

He's not an antagonist because he's a Nazi, he's an antagonist because he's ready to screw whomever at the tip of a hat. He's a mercenary. He has no feelings towards anyone but himself, and he loves it. He cares about the Nazis as much as he cares about the Allies. Whomever will give him the best offer is his favorite. He's brilliant, charismatic, cold blooded, has a black hole for a heart and enjoys what he does.

Kane from Command & Conquer

Other favourites from games being Revolver Ocelot from Metal Gear Solid, Darth Revan and HK-47 from Knights of the Old Republic, Saren from Mass Effect and Albert Wesker from Resident Evil.

Film/TV wise, Darth Vader definitely wins. Baal from Stargate SG-1 and the Joker (mostly the Mark Hamill Batman: The Animated Series version) are great too.

All those points you made are good and all.But the way you put it made him sound like a neutral.As you said "Mercenary.".Which is a neutral in a way a dog is to whom who has the biggest steak.

Erm... No, I'm pretty sure he's the antagonist in that movie. I think you're confusing "bad guy" (i.e.: antagonist) with "evil". Evil is an abstract and highly subjective concept. I personally refrain from using that word myself. Generally speaking evil people are only evil to the people whom they consider evil themselves. The antagonist, however, is whomever opposes the "hero". Hans Landa is the antagonist in Inglorious Basterds. The "bad guy".

Jeremy Irons from 'Die Hard with a Vengence' had 'cool' written all over him. That awesome suit and sunglasses. That cool, calm, poker face during the first scenes.

Well, that's what I can think of at the top of my head.

Alright, I'm sold.
Best hero ever.

Naw, he's Chaotic Good.
He's never gonna give you up!
Never gonna let you down!
But he is gonna link you to a video of him dancing instead of what you thought you were being linked to.
