Nah man not just Cesar cj should be higher than sweet and cesar... wait zero is higher than cj how? Co did like 95% of the work oh nd of loc too man cj should be ranked so much higher
I don’t think it’s a matter of moving Cesar up, but moving other people, such as CJ and Victor, down. I mean look at everyone else below (or above?) Cesar. Bunch of pure angels.
and also niko bellic is actually good actually he save some people like marie an when he saved her from being a drugs adcactie I men he do bad things but he's not evil
Claude is the most badass character in GTA history. He’s ice cold, would kill anyone for the right price and has no morals. GTA 3 is the darkest game in the series.
Claude also is polite to a lot of characters he meets. Like Kenji, 8-Ball, Joey, and even Salvatore Leone. Sure you could argue that he’s just doing that so they can give him as much help as possible, but in some missions he’s pretty nice around most of the characters you encounter in the game. What’s especially awesome is that he doesn’t even have to act kind to the characters. So that gives him some points and good traits. Silly WickedBinge.
Cj is the most iconic in the series then tommy Claude is 3rd and the least is the liberty city dude the one I always forget his name he's the most forgetful and easiest to forget about.
I'll have two number nines, a number nines Large, a number six with extra dip, a number seven, two number fourty-fives, one with cheese and a large soda.
I think you are mistaken about Tommy and especially Toni. While Tommy really is rather evil, he has lots of redeeming qualities. He took full responsibility for Sonnys 20 mil. Altough he weren't always nice and quick to anger, he never backstabbed and always has been loyal to his friends and the people he has worked with and also he always treated elderly people he came across with 100% respect. And about Toni, yea well, he probably is the most evil character. Yes, you mentioned he butchered a guy and sold all his body parts to a butcher, but you completely left out that he blew up an entire city district, causing at least a few thousands or ten thousands of civilian casualties. And he showed no remorse.
I think Donald Love is the most psychotic, sick and evil character in the whole 3D Universe. He is a canibalist, killing a lot of people, mostly to eating them. He even ate his mentor and turned poor people into dog meat literally.
@@ruben_zermeno He should've definitely been at number 1. Eating his mentor and ordering an entire neighbourhood to be blown up all without rumours is magnitudes more evil than most on this list.
23:32 Tommy actually isn’t loyal to Rosenberg. He sent Rosenberg to rehab in Los Santos and when he was done he tried calling tommy to be sent back to vice city. Yet, all he got was being ignored by Tommy. So no, Tommy wasn’t loyal to him
to be fair, tommy was parainoid after the betryal of lance , even lance him self said this is vice city , this is buissness. and ken rosenburg is a bogus ambulence chaser as well as a junkie drug addict
One thing you forgot to mention about Ken Rosenberg is he was also in San Andreas where even though he was a weasel he developed a heavy cocaine addiction during VC and possibly after, that it was apparently too much for Tommy to take and sent him to San Andreas to get clean, then eventually cut him off because he was too much of a hassle for him to return to VC, leading to his shenanigans with him in San Andreas. Overall great video!
When I first played GTA III I was shocked by how cold-blooded Claude was. He kills his old bosses just for money. It hurted me a bit having to kill Kenji. P.S: Asuka's pronunciation is "Aska" and great video, can't wait for the HD Universe list
While all the characters are more or less just an avatar for the player, Claude suffers the most from this. he has only one motive. kill the woman who betrayed him. and he has no past (until San Andres, and even then that isn't adding much), combine that with the fact that he is a silent protagonist, and he certainly comes off as cold blooded. Oh, and he wouldn't have had to kill Salvatore Leone if Maria could have kept her damn mouth shut. she told Salvatore that she was sleeping with Claude (which she wasn't. she just wanted to piss off her husband) resulting in Claude being marked for death. he sees this as betrayal, and we all know how well he handles betrayal. don't worry, the bitch gets hers in the end too! a post game audio clip right before the credits has her complaining to Claude, then a gunshot, then silence. a little gruesome, but, well, she betrayed him too, and no one gets away with that.
@@darkdialga777 Maria also did the same thing to Tony in LCS, I guess Salvatore must've seen more potential in him or had gone senile since he didn't seem to give 2 Fs that Maria said the same thing about him before hand and Sal didn't do squat
See, that would have been a way to make the definitive edition interesting, make new branching storylines in GTA3 where you can choose to be loyal or betray the bosses you work for
im pretty sure ryder was threatened by smoke to join him, cuz all his missions were for the grove and he never showed any signs of betrayal, and even said he hated the crack addicts in los santos. but smoke threatened him to join and he couldnt tell the others bc smoke had more respect than him and nobody would believe him, and then smoke would cap him for snitching.
That is a popular theory, and it's supported by none of Ryder's lines in his last mission being unique, because his voice actor left after being refused more pay.
I think Niko will be the most moral of all characters in the HD universe. He feels remorse over his actions, at least cannonicaly seems to have standards in who he kills, avoiding hurting women and the elderly, is extremely loyal, doesn't let money and power get to his head and protects those he cares for. Pretty remarkable for a main character in a GTA game of all things.
OG Loc is worse than Ryder because Loc cares more about himself and doesn’t care about grove street when Ryder does more. Ryder deserves to be higher on the list
The fact that you ranked Catalina the most evil character in the 3d made perfect sense I like both tenpenny and Catalina as characters both are sadistic, cruel and manipulative they use people for their own good then tends to get rid of them once they get what they want and have no trouble getting their so called partners in trouble either even if it's at risk which is why I hate them so much
Also I would consider Claude to be psychotic not sociopathic. Claude seems to have zero moral compass for anything including his own goals. While he is driven by revenge in the last mission he gets there by blind luck. I don't see any evidence that suggests that Claude has any moral compass or has learned to have a moral compass of any kind throughout his upbringing. and just like Catalina I consider Claude to have been born with Mal intent or psychotic behavior.
Keep in mind that the hd era also includes GTA V since they carry characters from GTA IV. The best- Louis Lopez's mother. She did nothing wrong at all other than borrow money to pay her bills when she was in need and when her son was in prison. She only wanted her son to live a better life which he eventually did by the end of gay Tony The worst - Dimitri Raskalov. He betrayed his childhood friend that went in prison together in Vladivostok Michael Faustin, left Faustins family starving and on the street and even kicked them from their house and Faustins wealth, betrayed Niko Bellics secret whereabouts to Bulgarian, personaly kidnapped and tortured Nikos cousin and if we chose the non cannon end of taking the deal then Raskalov will kill his cousin. He is a manipulative bastard that betrayed everyone that loved him in the worst possible way. He is the epitome of an actual snake. Billy Grey turned because under Johnny's guidance, the club didn't earn money, betrayed themselves to the angels of death and made things worse for everyone. And that showed in GTA V: Johnny ended like Billy but way worse, left his ex-slut get fucked by Trevor and turned the gang to sell drugs so they can live. If anything, Billy was indeed a better version of Klebbitz.
@@Γιάννης-ξ8μ But his mother is abusive to Luis, alwais gave credit to her other sons. Kate at least is just cynical. Actually for the best I would give to that brittish old couple from gta V.
Headass McDeadass I feel like Eddie would be on the list just because of how fucked up he is. He seemed so outta place in a GTA game, he felt more like a character from Manhunt.
Claude could not express his emotions as he could not speak .he could also not say yes or no for the missions because of that 1upbing: Claude is most evil playable character
The most evil GTA character I originally thought was Trevor until I found out their was a mission in GTA 2 where you literally grind bodies up into hotdogs. The guy behind that is easily the most evil GTA character of all time.
@@ThatoneLiminalGuy Tony did it to a bad person and only one guy, however Claude speed kidpaned like 20 innocent people and had them minced into meat and his boss congratulated him with a ‘Well done’ 💀
@@ThatoneLiminalGuy yeah he literally killed thousands to tens of thousands with the mission where u blew up a district(fort something forgot the name)
I can't remember his name but the cop who's death was pinned on Carl was gonna expose Crash to intenal affairs so Crash whacked them, and if I recall Officer Hernadez was working on a case to expose Pualiski and Tempenny which lead to Tempenny killjng Hernadez before having Pualiski kill CJ which fails.
It’s Ralph Pendelbury or known as Officer Pendelbury. He is actually good cop to investigate Tenpenny and Pulaski’s corruption before got caught by them
That one would be confusing with how everyone changed from SR2 to SR3. The Boss in SR2 was a power hungry sociopath while in the later games he softens up.
Man I love cj but the murders he commits sometimes are very questionable, such as the construction worker he buries in concrete and the innocent woman who drowns in the car with mad dogs manager.
Madd's manager whom carl killed isnt completely innocent, as he mentions whilst in a car with CJ that him and ballas are like brothers, but his girlfriend is innocent
Small correction: Miguel was killed by Catalina. Not by Asuka. Also, how is Jimmy Hernandez a bad guy, for killing a guy to save his own life? I mean, he was threatened on the spot, that if he doesn't kill the guy, he is killed instead. Perfectly normal and relatable reaction. And he did try to redeem himself, by secretly working against Tenpenny. Going along with Tenpenny only to keep his cover (which is sadly blown in the end).
@H1 But the difference to CJ to other GTA protagonists in 3D universe is he is the only one that has conscience and does not seem to enjoy killing a lot of people. Occasionally giving his victims to redeem themselves, Perfect example was the mission High Noon where he tried to convince Eddie that Tenpenny is just using him but to no avail.
@H1 put yourself on in CJ's shoes what will you react if someone messes with your family members especially your sister? Of course he will take his revenge its pretty understandable to begin with.
@H1 you mention earlier about the mission Deconstruction. What if CJ did not kill them to begin with? Those construction workers will be doing it over and over and over again. Are you going to even allow that to happen?
Ryder and Big Smoke should of been higher. Ryder was subtly threatened by Big Smoke to join him. And Big Smoke was threatened himself by Tenpenny and if you look closely, tried to change some of GSF to see his way of thinking before things got deeper like shown in his talks with Sweet.
Exactly! One thing that it seems like most fans miss is that after CJ and him fight in the famous scene where Big Smoke was dying he seem to regret his decisions and it was most likely implied that he was sorry for what he did. Which of course was followed by the beloved line “When I’m gone; everyone gonna remember my name. Big Smoke!” WickedBinge tends to overlook some facts about certain characters in their videos lol. But that’s why they ask near the end of every video “But what do you think? How would you rank these characters?” They’re kind of like WatchMojo asking near the end of their videos “So, do you agree with our list? What do you think is ___________________? or what’s your favorite _________? For more top 10s published everyday; be sure to subscribe to WatchMojo.com!”
Big Smoke was a traitor but what could he do sure he said he did it for the money and the power but deep inside he knew if he did not do this tenpenny would have killed him. Tenpenny is the Devil
You should do the games Mafia I II and III characters Good to Evil. Good- Vito Scaletta Grey Area- Leo Galante Evil- Sal Marcano Most Evil- Remy Duvall
You forgot to put for Sweet that he did almost go into doing some drugs but his brother stopped him before he got tempted into doing the drugs meaning that sweet almost did give in when time was tough but his brother stopped him from making a stupid mistake
This was an interesting watch; I like this concept! If by any chance you take suggestions, how about going for Ace Attorney in a future episode? Maybe sticking to the original trilogy first for the sake of less characters to dig through.
Tenpenny is such a amazing villain. He’s corrupt and evil but he only became that way because he saw the only way to really clean up the ghettos of Los Santos was to be just as if not more dirty than the gangsters that inhabited it.
Artemis Arrow nah, he’s just a selfish bastard taking advantage of his position. He’s helping Big Smoke push dope to the streets and by that fueling a gang war. Name one thing he does that actually prevents crime and gang war
He even killed a police officer that wouldn’t cooperate with him and his gang. Then he threatened to pin the murder on CJ, if CJ didn’t do as he was told.
@@NotDingse simple.. his plan was unify the crime below him and them control everyone... when CJ was cast out to badlands and sweet got to jail, ballas, vagos and russian mafia came to a truce below Big Smoke.
Liberty City was a mess all around. Claude being the cold-blooded protagonist, but also dealing with the worst people: Catalina, Asuka, Salvatore, Donald Love among others... That game was dark from start to finish. No comic relief like San Andreas and Vice City had, it was all about killing, killing and only killing.
Honestly, I was hoping to see you guys do Metal Gear Solid villains, Least Evil to Most Evil (The Sorrow as the least evil, and Colonel Volgin as the most evil).
I kinda just realize that the protagonists of GTA V represent the 3D protagonists. Both Tommy and Micheal have short tempers. Claude and Trevor are crazy. And Franklin and CJ care about their allies, friends, and family.
If an anti-hero makes good choices all of the time does that still make anti-heroes? and if an anti-villian make makes bad choices all of the time does that make still anti-villians?
Cesar should be a bit higher. OJ and Marty should be way lower. I can see why Big Smoke is very low, but Ryder should be a lot less lower than the placement he’s on. Donald should be first, and Catalina should be like third. Still, good effort guys
No way CJ can be higher than Vance. Victor is the most "humane" protagonist in the whole GTA saga. It kind of makes it the most hypocrite too, because in VC Stories you end with the greatest empire of all games (even bigger than the original Vice City)
Good: Cortana Neutral: Master Chief Bad: Covenant Aliens Evil: Well, whoever is the main antagonist and had done the worst things in the series. It’s been FOREVER since I last played Halo so I don’t remember much lol
King Courtney of the Yardies is a horrible person too, he's the only person to betray TWO protagonists (Claude and Mike) and still live. Talk about lucky...
Good (ish): Ernest Kelly Louise The Truth Mitch Baker Mad Dog Ken Paul Mercedes Cortez Love Fist Kendall Johnson Grey zone: Wu Zi Carl “CJ” Johnson Víctor Vance Umberto Robina Sean “sweet” Johnson Phil Cassidy Steve Scott Lazlow Caesar Juan García Cortez 8-ball Ken Rosenburg Zero Jimmy Hernandez Maria Jeffery Cross Luigi Joey Leone Ken Ji Bad to evil: Tommy Vercetti Tony Cipriani Mickey Hamfist Aunty Paulette Marty J Williams Miguel Avery Carrington Torino Rain Makowski Salvatore Leone Joseph O Tool Massimo Torini Vincenzo seeley Lance Vance Ryder Ma Cipriani Eddie Pulaski Jerry Martinez Méndez brothers Claude Ricardo Díaz Sonny Forelli Assukha Big Smoke Frank Tenpenny Donald Love Catalina (I tried to pinpoint where each category ends, because they don’t say it)
GTA III Most Good: Lazlow Most evil: Catalina GTA Vice City Most good: Earnest Kelly Most evil: Donald Love GTA San Andreas Most good: The Truth Most Evil: Frank Tenpenny
Good list, but Love should be first, since he literally destroyed a whole neighbor at the end of _Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories_ causing hundreds if not thousands of casualties.
I'm glad that of all the protagonists, CJ is the highest ranked, since in my opinion he's the most sympathetic. Now, don't misunderstand me, he is definitely not a good person, but compared to Claude, who's a sociopath mute who basically does whatever he's told, and Tommy, the exceptionally violent asshole, CJ is practically a saint. I don't know much about the Stories protags, unfortunately, having never played those, but still.
Plus The Truth too , I think CJ and Niko are the most friendliest GTA protagonists but Vic is actually the nicest because he never done brutal crimes , CJ and Niko are one of the highest bodycount protagonists but they're definitely nicer than Calude and Tommy who rarely feels sympathy.
@@ArtieArchives Lol not , CJ committed many brutal crimes and murders like drowned Madd Dogg's manager and women , bury foreman alive , kill thousands of police and gangs. It's strange that someone think he's not villainous at all. He's more brutal and dangerous than Michael , Vic or even Claude. He's unlike other characters I think he's diverse as California. Moral , Immoral , heroic , villainous , humorous , angry all in one and he is very loyal. That make him the greatest and most popular GTA character.
Next should be the following: WickedBinge: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987): Good to Evil Dinosaurs: Good to Evil Rugrats: Good to Evil Ren & Stimpy: Good to Evil CatDog: Good to Evil Ed, Edd n Eddy: Good to Evil RWBY: Good to Evil My Hero Academia: Good to Evil Finding Nemo: Good to Evil 1upBinge: Super Mario: Good to Evil Donkey Kong Country: Good to Evil Kirby: Good to Evil Star Fox: Good to Evil Pokemon Trainers: Good to Evil Kid Icarus: Good to Evil Warioware: Good to Evil Mega Man: Good to Evil Street Fighter: Good to Evil Bayonetta: Good to Evil Banjo-Kazooie: Good to Evil Fatal Fury/King of Fighters: Good to Evil Crash Bandicoot: Good to Evil
I agree about CJ. That's why I hate the mission Deconstruction because it really feels out of character that he just buries the foreman under concrete. Also Cesar should be ranked higher than him Edit: on second thought this list is all over the place. No way Cortez who handed a chainsaw to Tommy to kill his opposition is a better person than Zero or Rosenberg and Mike Toreno is not evil. He did what he did for his country and always kept his word
Mike is on correct place he is responsible for starting a wars in other countries and replacing evil people with even more evil people who can be controlled by USA, his actions are just part of the dark side of politic and didn't he sabotaged other organizations just for gain of his own organization. Mike also never done anything to stop Tempenny even if he knew what he done. And Gonzalez deserved what he got he betrayed Cortez for money and even when they were friends he was stealing his coke. Cortez is a criminal kingpin, but he still is much better person than many below him.
4:41 I'm not sure if this is Grand Theft Auto's inaccuracy or yours, but you don't earn a purple heart for killing enemy soldiers, you get the purple heart for being wounded in action.
Claude is definitely the most evil. Never says a word and will betray anyone for money. Remember he saves Kenji and even does a few jobs for Kenji. And always gives Kenji a bow like he respects him. Then turns around and kills Kenji for money. Then helps asuka find her brothers killer (which means he just killed whoever asuka thought was her brothers killer despite it being Claude all along)
I disagree, how can he say no to Donald love? He is a billionaire that can have him locked back up so if you think about it he really had no choice, it's called Capitalism he buys and gets what he pays for and how can a mute say no. I don't remember anytime Claude saved Kenji?
If Ryder's only heinous trait is just his betrayal of the GSF, then that shows that he's the kindest of all the antagonists of the series. PS, Catalina definitely earned her spot as the most evil character of the series.
