Actually it took:

-A whole army
-Your whole team
-And then you

But yeah, he's a much more believable villain than say Kefka or Sephiroth.

You forgot the light peppering of a couple hundred arrows. ^.^ I think what made his so memorable is that he was just a man with no 'power ups', mystical powers and/or magic weapons. I think he had a fire rune. And a LOT of crazy.

I liked Hojo as a villain, too. Because he was just so twisted. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that he was the true villain in FF7. I mean, come on, he basically created Sephiroth - both physically and psychologically.

Luca's still the shnitz, though.

Yeah but she was a horrible villain(IMO). Sarah Kerrigan is easily the most memorable female villain for me. She started off on the Terran(Human) side of the war, but she was the first to become a mixed breed of Human and Zerg. She eventually evolves and grows as a character, the whole process is really well done. I could be wrong about that since I haven't played Starcraft in a while.
She's pretty damn evil too.

There's also Miang from Xenogears, but I can't put her in the same category as Kerrigan.
My favourite VG villains, eh? Ho ho, this is gonna be a tough one!

1) Kefka. (Final Fantasy VI)
2) Kuja. (Final Fantasy IX)
3) Van. (Tales Of The Abyss)
4) Sakaki. (.Hack//GU)
5) Mithos. (Tales Of Symphonia)
6) Sigma. (Mega Man X)
7) Necrosaro. (Dragon Warrior IV)
8 ) Ganon. (Legend Of Zelda)
9) Ansem. (Kingdom Hearts 1)

10. Mithos (ToS)

9. Pokemon Rival (Pokemon)

8. Albert Wesker (RE)

7. Nemesis (RE3)

6. Dr. Robotnink (SH)

5. Bowser (SM)

4. Ganon (LoZ

3.Physco Mantis (MGS)

2. The Ghosts (PC)

1. Donkey Kong (DK)
Possibly one of the earliest villains ever of video games. He battled Mario or Jump Man long before Bowser. Ferociously throwing barrels down and try to stop the good ole Hero.
10)Samus-X (Metroid Fusion)The only one I ever had problems with in the series due to the fact that you have to run away in terror from it several times.

9)Ultros (FFVI) Actually I considered him more of a nusiance who kept popping up.

8.)Metal Gear Rex (MGS) I wouldn't have beat him up so badly if I knew I could control him in the last game

7)The Moniter (Halo1) Stupid anoying whistling robot tricked me! And I couldn't kill him! I don't know why I like him!

6) Crypto (Destroy All Humans 1-3!) Deadly and makes comments that should have gotten the game rated a whole lot higher than T. The most extensive archive of sexual innuendos to date. Plus you play as him and kill humans. And it was really entertaining to use the anal probe on someone in the first game and watch them run away crapping.

5)Yuri (Red Alert 2:Yuri's Revenge) He walks the fine line between genius and madman, and nearly mindcontrolled the world after he dumped the Soviets.

4)Kefka (FFVI) Has one of the most entertaining and developed personalitys of a major villan to date. And he is The Evil Clown General/God!

3)Sephiroth (FFVII and other games in which he's a hidden boss) His theme song strikes fear in my heart, and a need to level up as high as possible. Besides he is a badass boss.

2)Illidan (Warcraft III) My favorite magic addicted Ex-Nightelf, whose had really bad luck in his long life. Why did you die! :'(

1)Kane (Any Command and Conquer Game that contains tiberium) Theres no words to describe this master mind of extreme evil. Peace through Power!

My favorites...I'll do ten of them, but in no particular order.

Bowser - Mario's arch-enemy just never knows when to quit. He might be a complete moron, but he's just an abominably tough guy! Or at least, he looks that way...

Ganondorf - I don't think I could personify evil any better than him. With his underhanded tactics and insatiable lust for power, he just defines villainy to me.

Lavos - As a villain, he's fairly innactive. But what makes him cool to me is how he plays a role in everything by hardly doing anything at all. His presence on the planet alone is enough to make him a force to be reckoned with.

Dr. Robotnik - And none of this "Eggman" crap, either! I never really understood his motive, but anyone with the technical skills and innovation he possesses can make for a very unique, ever-changing enemy. I can't think of many others who can match his versatility.

Sirius - Though many of you may not know him, he was secretly the main villain in Bomberman 64. He fed you lies the whole game to get you to help him while he, in turn, helped you. Then, in what might have been the final act, he betrays you and assumes the role of the enemy you just defeated! Maybe it's because I was younger when I played the game, but I love to hate him for that.

Regulus - Yet another Bomberman 64 enemy. He works for the supposed main bad guy, but helps Bomberman after Sirius takes over. In spite of this, he still hates Bomberman's guts (for beating him) and remains his eternal rival. He was never quite a friend, and always ready for a fight. Too bad he disappeared off the face of the series...

Raem - All you Final Fantasy fans rave about greats like Kefka and Sephiroth, but in Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles, this guy tormented the world in a way those two could never hope to! He's a demon that feeds off of memories. He doesn't need to eat much to survive, but he's both a glutton and a connoissuer. And painful memories are always the tastiest, so making people suffer just makes his meals more delicious...just imagine, losing your memories forever...

Gruntilda - The main villain of Banjo-Kazooie. She's crude, wicked, and delightfully evil. Her character quirks make her a lot more interesting, and her occasional taunts to the player are always good for a chuckle.

Mother Brain - I never beat the original Metroid (too crappy), so I'm talking about her Super Metroid incarnation. In addition to being the center of the Space Pirate's operations on Zebes, I respect her just for her sheer unfathomable power. She's way over 9000, and Samus would've been screwed if it weren't for her Metroid buddy.

The Doctor - Cave Story's own 2nd biggest bad guy. He reminds me of a more intellectual Ganondorf. He makes systematic and cunning decisions to elevate himself straight to the top, and I admire that kind of ambition in villains. Beats the hell of all the ones that are just bat-crazy!

And that's all ten...I was hard-pressed to come up with that many. Hmm...I should play more games.
...I cannot think of only 10 to list in order, so I'll list my favorite #1 villain.

Kane: from Vandal Hearts. I don't know, I guess there's something about a bloodthirsty rival getting possessed by dark powers beyond his control that seems fitting as a good villain.
5 - Mother Brain
Just because

4 - Shiva (Streets of Rage)
One badass boss at the end of Streets of Rage 2, the bastard turns up at the end of the first stage of Streets of Rage 3 for a rematch too!

3 - Adam the Clown (Dead Rising)
Dual weilding chainsaw psycopathic clowns are cool

2 - Metal Sonic
Holy shit yes! In all his forms, especially the badass giant red one at the end of Knuckles Chaotix

1 - Dr Robotnik
Been fighting the good dotor for years and shall continue to do so til the day I die
I dont know if i know 10 villians but here i go

1.-Bowser
2.-Ganondorf
3.-Mithos
4.-Sephirot...
5.-Purple ;D(day of tentacle)
6.-Lechuck ;D(monkey Island)...
7.-Taxes on sims ;D(I have lost many things because of that >:()
I dont have anymore villiasn :-\ (well i have but they are not favorite)
GLaDOS (Portal) - Don't you just love how her voice gets all normal and sultry when you destroy that frist node?
Dormin (Shadow of the Colossus)

I can't think of any other good ones that haven't been mentioned =/
Screw the rules, this list goes to 11.

11. Kefka - Not as amazing as most people say, but he's very iconic.
10. SA-X - SHE'S BELOW ME FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK
9. Sarah Kerrigan - Badass gone super badass
8. Dr. Wily - Get out of jail free cards.
7. Marche - WE'RE GOING HOME
6. GLaDOS - Nuff said
5. Death - It felt awesome when you "killed Death"
4. Dr. Breen - Tell me, Dr. Freeman, if you can. You have destroyed so much. What is it, exactly, that you have created? Can you name even one thing? I thought not.
3. Physco Mantis - Should have been the main villian.
2. Shodan - Look at you, hacker: a pathetic creature of meat and bone, panting and sweating as you run through my corridors. How can you challenge a perfect, immortal machine?
1. The Queen - I love her.

10. Sephiroth (FFVII)

9. Darth Malek (KOTOR) - Malek was pretty much a discount Darth Vader, but he mindfucked Revan just as hard as Vader mindfucked Luke at the end of Empire.

8. You/Wander (Shadow of the Colossus) - Nothing else to be said.

7. Eve (Parasite Eve)

6. Shodan (System Shock 2)

5. Pyramid Head (Silent Hill 2)

4. Liquid Snake (Metal Gear Solid) - Let's face it. Revolver Ocelot's goals just sucked. At least Liquid Snake was a proper megalomaniac.

3. General Lynx (Chrono Cross)

2. Doctor Robotnik (Sonic: The Hedgehog)

1. Carmen Sandiego (Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego)
