Lets face it, the world is chock full of douche bags. Hell most of you reading this article are complete douche bags, especially if your an editor for N4G but that is for another article. Those of you that aren't douche bags at some point might have wondered to yourself "I wonder who the biggest **** douche bag in gaming is?" Well hopefully this article will help put that question to rest.

5. Cliify B.

When you see Cliffy B. in an interview or on an award show toting that chainsaw rifle it gives me douche chills all up and down my spine. Not to mention the fact that the guy actually had the balls to say in an interview "Metal Gear Solid is our example of the game we're not doing. Passive entertainment is on its way out." WTF, first of all ya couldn't hold Kojima-sans jock with both hands Cliffy. Secondly, if I wasn't laughing at the ridiculous dialouge in Gears 2 the whole time I would have fallen asleep. (I lol'ed at this part :lol: )

4. Teh Pwnerer

Were gonna go a little light on teh pwnerer because of the recent loss they have suffered. That does not change the fact that our boy Jeremy portrays gamers like a bunch of retarded chimps. Everytime I hear some jerk off little bastard on xbox live spouting some **** line he got from watching pure pwnage it makes me want to jump through the mic and punch his mom in the face.

3. Shane Bettenhausen

Former writer for EGM and cohost of the 1up yours Shane Bettenhausen should be wearing a cape and a big D on his chest. Anyone who listened to the old 1up podcast has heard this ultimate PS3 fanboy jerking off all over any Sony product that came his way all the while talking about how non biased everyone at EGM and 1up was. Shane was a blight on video game journalism and it's probably for the best that he is now working for Ignition Entertainment.

2. Jonathan "fatality" Wendel

Why god why did you choose pro gamer Jonathan "fatality" Wendel as a ambassador for gaming. Check this out "While I won my championships on ultra-performance PCs, I still go to Nintendo for fun and relaxation, playing with the same passion and sense of joy I remember as a kid on that original Nintendo console. This year I've become addicted to Wii, which lets me replicate the challenge of the physical sports I've played my entire life, such as tennis, bowling and golf. I bought all my business partners Wiis for Christmas. I even play Wii with my grandma. (Her favorite is Wii bowling.)" I wonder how much he got paid to say that, and to use his grand mammy in such an obvious **** plug is decpicable.

1. Dennis Dyack
dyack

Dennis is at the top of the heap for two reasons. 1. He developed Too Human for 10+ years and still managed to have it suck ass! 2. When the gaming community pretty much universally told him that Too Human sucked ass he went to every media outlet available to him , including his infamous apperance on 1up and made the weakest excuses possible. Dyack blamed everyone but himself for Too Humans failure including gamers. Well Dennis the tribe has spoken and it said your a total douche bag.

Lol, pretty funny read.

edit: lulz, why did I quote that? :P

I agree with # 5, 3, 2, and 1. I think David Jaffe atleast needed to be their He makes great games but he still needs to be on this list.

Hahahaha Dennis Dyack

Nintendo_Ownes7

Ah, no Reggie?

He started out great, then got promoted, and did a 180. Oh well, it's somethin to read. :)

Oh, and Itagaki, how could I forget! I guess he has been away from the limelight for a bit though.

David Jaffe should be in here

I can't see Kaz Hirai on that list.

There again, he's too hilarious to get angry with.

didn't expect to see cliffy up there.

jaffe shouldn't be up there. he's not a douche because he speaks his mind and swears.

I can't see Kaz Hirai on that list.

There again, he's too hilarious to get angry with.

Menalque2

Who edits Gamepro?

What no Ken Kutagari. Ohh yea he retired. Would put Shane #1. This douche bag used to rate NBA live better than 2K every year back in the xbox PS2 days.

What a mook.

Nice list but I would have included Reggie Fils-Aime and Jack Tretton (especially Jack Tretton).

No David Jaffe? I would have thought he'd take the number one spot. :?

No itagaki?

I'd say Jaffe, Itagaki, Reggie, Yamauchi and Miller (of 3D Realms).

I can't see Kaz Hirai on that list.

There again, he's too hilarious to get angry with.

Menalque2

Fatality is a douche. He considers himself an "athlete" since he's a gamer. What a joke.

I dont know why alot people see Jaffe as a douchebag he just speaks his mind and swears alot

Needs more Derek Smart.

If anyone should be on there it's Reggie. Besides I think anyone who bashes someone for having a great career dealing with video games is just jealous. Get over it and play some games fellas!

I'm surprised no one mentioned Tomonobu Itagaki, that guy is legendary. I remember in some NG2 interview about a year ago, he said something like 'if i was to play a game and mention the bad things about NG1, I would never lose', lol

No Kojima? Anyone who has made a career naming his production company after himself, completely stealing the credit from his team, deserves a spot on a list like that. Miyamato and Meier aren't that arrogant, and they actually have a right to be.Shafftehr

Do you have proof of him saying "I DID ALL THE WORK AND NOONE HELPED" cause im pretty sure he hasint said that.

OK yea good job assuming stuff. Kojima never came off as a douch bag.

DOnt even try that dude. How is Zelda and mario not synonymous with miyamato,but MGS is with Kojima. THat makes no sense what so ever. You jsut sound like your hating for the sake of hating plan and simple dude. Also so what if its called Kojima productions its just a name. Thats like calling everything thats named after someone a douch. Example P.C richards and son are you going to go to the grave of Peter Christiään Richard and call him a douch cause he wanted his store to be named after him. I have never seen Kojima be little his team and say its all me. Its just a name dude. What you want him to call it SUPER ACTION NINJA DEVLOPERS!!! Its a plan and straight forward name.

Miyamato hasn't even made Zelda for a while now. People have long associated it with Nintendo. Heck, most casuals don't even know who Miyamato is. Whereas Kojima... of course, his name is on the side of the box every one of his games. The guy chose a "plain and straight forward name" which gives millions of gamers the impression that he's largely responsible for what is, in reality, the conglomerate effort of hundreds of people. Again, you rarely see someone in creative endeavours so full of themselves as to do this - and it doesn't surprise me at all that people are bending over backwards to put it in the best light.Shafftehr

Still sounds like all this is just assumption. Why dont you hate on Sid Meier after all his name is the name of the game. Saying "Oh but he can do it cause he deserves it" wont cut it at all. Its either everything or nothing. If you try to twist it your just being a hypocrite.

i actually miss shane on the 1up podcasts i really didnt find him to be a douche. sure he liked sony, but he really didnt like fps or shooters which basically make the xbox not really a good system for him. The ps3 has a lot of shooters but they also have some very cool and wierd games on the psn so i dont know i guess he was kind of the yang of the yin on the podcast. While everybody else loved the xbox he would defend the ps3. Thats the way i saw it.

Oh wow you did twist it. Yea your a hypocrite. Like I said everyone gets the hate or noneone. Also if Kojima was really a douch he wouldint have credits in his game. I mean after all its all him the credits should just say KOJIMA and thats it.:roll:

No itagaki?

The list isnt relevant if Reggie isnt in it.

Wow, never thought I'd ever see anyone attack Kojima's attitude. Very odd....

[QUOTE="finalfantasy94"]Like I said everyone gets the hate or noneone.Shafftehr

Debunk what points? All i heard against kojima was "He named his company KOJIMA so hes a douch" thats it. I didint seen not one NOT ONE EXAMPLE of him being a douch. Like I said being the hypocrite you are kills any argument you had.

no name on Snatcher look it up on google wont let me putup a photo, but it really doesnt matter kojima is not a a d-bag, he is a nice guy and has said in a lot of interviews and on the dvd with mgs4 if it wasnt for his team he would not be where he is today.

Kojima is def up there when it comes to this list.

Yet sid meier has 11 games stamp with his name on the box and you say thats fine? According you your logic he should be a douch too right. Doesint matter if you he made one game from scratch or any other defensense you try to give. Its either yes or no. I dont see the problem with calling it Kojima productions its not like he puts down his team or says its all me. Its just his house thats all. Remember im not calling Sid a douch. IM just using your logic.
