1) Trevor Phillips
But speaking of crazy bastards, we’ve come to the head of our list, and the gaming “hero” who could most easily become a psychotic villain is GTA V’s Trevor Phillips. Trevor is essentially the character that embodies the classic GTA habits of most of the series’ players, and it’s no major stretch to imagine him as a tyrannical villain rather than a puzzling hero.
Trevor’s apparent indifference to experiencing pain is matched only by the motivation he gathers by inflicting pain upon other victims, no matter who they may be. Trevor would be the evil-for-evil’s-sake type of villain; the kind of murderous psycho that everyone prays doesn’t exist in the real world anymore.
He is, what we Brits like to call, an absolute nutter and is pretty much bordering on villainy with every move he makes across the San Andreas landscape. Is there any gaming hero more easily suited to make the transition to villain? Not bloody likely, but let us know what gaming heroes you think are tottering on the borders of good and evil in the comments section below!
