Top Ten Video Game Traitors

Gamebreakers: "You know how plots go: They are always using one device or another to move themselves along. Parents die to fuel revenge. Inner monologues give us insight into a troubled character. Enemies become friends, and friends become enemies. This list looks at the latter. Any way you slice it, whether they go from friend to foe or vice-versa, they are betraying someone. Here are the Top Ten people who turned their cloaks, for good or for ill."

(Major game spoilers ahead, particularly for the recently-released Portal 2)

I wouldn't call Kessler a traitor. He didn't exactly stab Cole in the back or betray him

Imikida4644d ago

Same with Bowser, I don't ever remember him back stabbing Mario.

SOD_Delta4645d ago

Wheatley was the dumbest back stabber (literally) :)

Sepiroth of FFVII could be considered after all he was the super soldier hero, idolized by almost everyone including the rookie Cloud then BOOM! He went crazy and started killing off people. XD

Kyosuke_Sanada4645d ago

Revolver Ocelot deserves to be on the list even though it's not against the player. I mean look at his works from Snake Eater and beyond, he was the first person who introduced me to triple-crossing.

MGS4 SPOILER ALERT************************* ******************************* ******************************* ******************************* ******************************* ******************************* ******************************* ******************************* ******************************* **
If you played MGS4 all the way through and watched the cutscene after the credits then you know that Ocelot wasn't a traitor after all.

No Dark Yomi from Terranigma? Those subtle hints the game throws your way before the reveal were great.

Final Fantasy IV Pixel Remaster Review – An Epic Tale Of Pixelated Portrayals

Gary Green said: We’re finding ourselves in a similar position with the Pixel Remaster edition of Final Fantasy IV as we were with Final Fantasy III since, once again, we’ve received a slightly upscaled, more vibrant port of the original game when there’s already an expanded 3D remake available. As such, we’re playing a game which, even after its long-awaited release, still lives very much in the shadow of its remake.

If only they didn't screw ps4 owners over with a physical release. I'd have ran through this in a heartbeat.

The first one I played, it was the one that made me fall in love with JRPGs and is still my favorite to this day. A masterpiece

It's insane its been this long since the last release.

CrimsonWing6950d ago

Not from you.

Knowing how you handled FF16 by trying to make it appeal to non-fans and changing the entire gameplay design I can see you changing Tactics to appeal to non-fans.

If they’re going to do this please give it to someone who wants to keep the game and genre in tact.

He worked on tactics ogre reborn. Was there changes? He wouldn't make an FF tactics game an action game. It will be AA but faithful. Probably what the Diofield Chronicles team and some of the FFXVI team is probably working on already and he is just keeping a secret.

And FF hasn't had a set gameplay design since X. I disliked the MMO, 12, 13 FF's but didn't mald for years. I played other games. Stop crying as he probably won't make a single player FF again and will be busy with the next FF MMO.

I can feel your hatred. Keep it up.

Tactics Ogre Reborn was an overall solid product but almost eliminated the concept of builds in the game.
So we'd probably end up with a system where character jobs like Mercenary for Ramza is 80% of the character instead of being freeform.

SegaSaturn66949d ago

Tactics Ogre Reborn changed a lot of gameplay mechanics for the worse. The class system is weird and hard to lock in roles, and they shoehorned a new "random card appearing" mechanic on the maps which makes no sense. Previously you obtained those boosts from killing powerful opponents, not spawning randomly.

There's a way better way to play Tactics Ogre: the fanmade onevision mod of the psp version.

EternalTitan50d ago

16 was just a terrible mess.
Its not even a JRPG let alone a final fantasy game.
Yosi piss(who said he hates JRPGs) should not touch another Final Fantasy game ever again.

VersusDMC49d ago

87 metacritic can't be a terrible mess.
If Kingdom Hearts is a JRPG then FFXVI is a JRPG. And he said he hates the term JRPG as it carries a bad stereotype with western journalists.

So you're just incorrect on several fronts...

Asterphoenix49d ago

I wouldn't mind a new FF Tactics longs they keep the tactical elements of Tactics in it as well as a very in depth story. Which FF Tactics years ago has by far one of the best stories in the series.

Tapani49d ago

Yes, alongside with Vagrant Story. Playing FFT, then Vagrant story and finally FFXII is a bliss. Deepest lore and best stories ever made in video games.
