israphel's kinda a dick.
BUt I think i'd have to say the one that did it the best was Randal Flagg. while he had the advantage of doing so over several books, I think what tops it for me is he isnt even the main guy. he's taking orders, but he does so with such skill and for no more reason it seems half the time than for beinga dick.
<spoiler=But at least he gets whats coming to him in one of if not the worst ways possible><spoiler=Death by being eaten by giant demon spider>http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110328221011/darktower/images/f/ff/Randallflaggandmordreddt7.jpg

Not so much for the guys themselves but rather the acts they commit that I really hate;
Hazama from BlazBlue
http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mas8rzja5N1r2wdxto1_500.gif
Manipulates others' emotions for his own gain, causing best friends and family to kill each other, is incredibly anarchistic, and takes a great, maniacal Joker-esque joy from it.
He also has a complete knowledge of every alternate timeline making him almost infallible, and is shy from indestructible.
Yet, he's still completely fucking awesome for it for some reason..... (ambivalence, I guess?)
Griffith from Berserk

Let's just say you know you're supposed to hate this guy early on [for some reason], but later find little reason to...
Until the whole thing just does a complete 180, and he ends up destroying his possibly one true friend's sense of trust, love and camaraderie. Making him completely jaded and detached from humanity.
You're gonna want this guy's head on damned spike when it happens.

Wally from "Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard" would be my pick. To say that finally taking down that whiny, spoiled prick was satisfying is a gross understatement.
Griffth may he some day burn and get killed a thousand deaths.. because he is asshole number 1..FirebirdXR said:
Hamdo from Now and Then, Here and There.
And Arlong from One Piece. All I'm gonna say is "Loophole Abuse."
1) First onscreen act is killing a kitten.
2) Kills his own soldiers without a hint of remorse.
3) Implicitly molests a little girl.
4) Keeps a grown woman around just to serve as a vessel for making more soldiers. Yes. Just ONE WOMAN.

most of the villians from the Wheel of Time series. the fact that they are so well characterized and the readers ability to see from their perspective and their horrible tendencies just makes me want to go into the book and murder them all.
Oh hell yes she is a pain in the ass... but..Milanezi said:
it took them awhile before finishing her off..is it in 4th season where SHE FINALLY gets shot in the face and its Opie that does it.. and she wimpers and cries.. i was so happy.. when her brain finally got blown out in the windshield.. its been a long time since ive hated a person so much
I am currently re-watching the Death Note anime, and I must say I have never been a fan of Light Yagami. He is probably the biggest melodramatic arsehole I have encountered in fiction. I don't think I have encountered another character in fiction that I have found so utterly unpleasant that I was actively rooting for his downfall when I was halfway through the series when I first read the manga.
I couldn't agree more. You put it better than I could.Chromatic Aberration said:
You're all missing the real villain here.

He killed Ned, Robb, fat Bob, ruined Tyrion's childhood, killed fatherless babies, put Joffrey on the Throne and gave us this:

Charles Lee from Ass Creed 3. The I don't hate him with burning anger as a character, but I hate him in the sense that he is by far the least compelling villain in the entire series IMO.
Now Blight is a true a-hole for sure. I havent played that game since it came out years ago but Ill never forget when he made that person oink like a pig, laughed at them for doing so then cut them down while calling them a filthy pig! And of course when he was shot up with like 30 arrows and kept going like a beast.Pipotchi said:
I found it kind of funny he seems a nice and reasonable chap in the first part (Hayathem mode)Cheesus Crust said:
and then as soon as we get into the "real" game he becomes a crazed wild eye nutter...I mean honestly who says "YOU ARE NOTHING, YOUR PEOPLE WILL DIE FOREVER!! RAAAAGGGHHHH!!" to a kid? its like "dude....seriously"
every single last character in the anime Blue Gender
they were all so bad that I was rooting for the blue by episode 3
there was not a single character in Blue Gender with even one redeeming quality.
When an episode came along that ended with the blue attacking humanity in space and it looked like they were going to exterminate humanity I stopped watching and assumed that they won and all the characters I hated so much were all dead.

GLaDOS, for obvious reasons.
Xheanort, because i count having killed him at least three times, probably more, across the entire Kingdom Hearts series and he just wont STAY DOWN.
Knight-Commander Meredith. Its like someone took the Knight Templar TV Tropes page (NOT LINKING IT! I just saved your life... unless TV Tropes has already ruined your life) and distilled it into a character.
Darth Thanaton, The Old Republic, Sith Inquisitor Storyline. Condescending, asshole, and hypocrite all at the same time. Tries to convince the entire Dark Council that the player character is a greater threat to the Sith Order than pretty-much everything except the Jedi, and hopelessly devoted to disproven traditions. The curb stomping my Sith Inquisitor gave him at the end of the storyline was INFINITELY more enjoyable than it would have been had I not spent a few days coming up with ideas of what I wanted to do to Thanaton in my free-time.
Malak, Knights of the Old Republic. He kidnapped Bastila, and pushed her towards the dark-side (then again I expected that to happen eventually anyway, woman had a Pride problem). You do not kidnap members of my crew, or Love Interests, and DEFINITELY not both.
Loghain, Dragon Age Origins. I know, he had excelent reasons, and he did the tactically correct thing. He is responsible for Duncan dying, and Thedas needs all the badasses it can get.
The Collectors, Mass Effect Two. Killed Shepard, Kidnapped the entire crew of the Normandy minus my squad and Joker, and caused me to start shipping Joker and EDI in the process.

From Dragon Age 2:
Anders. And his justification for doing what he did. And how this mirrored the Oslo bomber that happened previously the same week in real life.

If anything, Charles also made me hate George Washington. It's like "Dude how many times do I have to point out this nut job is a bad guy? He even has a Whiplash like moustache..."Vault101 said:
My personal favorite is Cesare from Brotherhood. Then again Brotherhood is still my favorite game in series so far because it had the right mix of extra fluff without sacrificing the core stuff.
