Blizzard's Random Number Generator, particularly in regards to raid boss loot.
Fuck you, RNG. Seriously, fuck you.
Also, that halfling rogue you could hire as a companion in NWN. I didn't know you could disable his speech audio, so giving him commands to constantly be told "Oh, I can do that easy!" for four hours got really old, really fast.
And then I found out upon hitting Chapter 2 that if you did all of the Chapter one "minion quests" you got several very tangible perks. I gave up and never picked up the game again; I didn't want to re-do the first part, and I definately didn't want to listen to that fucking halfling for another hour.
I'd like to reiterate that Squall was in a position where his hot, supple, young, blonde, geeky-cute, newly-demoted teacher was openly offering her womanhood to him, and all he had to do was say one word or possibly even just nod his head and he would have had one night of the best sex he would ever have, and he just didn't feel like it.
Fuck you so hard, Squall Leonhart.
Fuck you indeed, Squall.
Although my ultimate gaming douchebag is still (with love, XoB) Redd White from Phoenix Wright:
This was also the first point in the game where I was stalled a bit in court, so I had to endure his taunts over and over again. I wanted to punch him in the face so bad I would forget he was a fictional character.
No seriously. This is the guy who threatened to buy the Freespace license, to then begin sueing the shit out of the incredible community that has been keeping the Freespace 2 engine alive after it went open-source. Douche-baggery on this level will likely never be matched. It's been mentioned before in this thread, but I had to mention it again (complete with DS conjuring, naturally).
Also, Fatal1ty. And anyone else that spells their name with a goddamn number.
Suda 51 is exempt from this rule.
Well I assume the 51 is pronounced 'fifty-one'. That's fine with me. It's when you start replacing letters with numbers that we have issues.
Technically it's Suda Goichi(Or Goichi Suda if you're American or some shit like that), but since Go is 5 and Ici is 1 in Japaneese, he's referred to as Suda 51. I think it might be "Suda Five-one" but I know I always say it as "Fifty-one"
"Hey, man. I know you just risked your life, like, jumping over lava, and a deranged turtle/dragon dude- but that girl- the princess? Yeah, totally not here."
If Yahtzee is to be believed, Toad is actually a guy who suffered head trauma, and was then only ever able to say 'our princess is in another castle.' His doctor recommended that he be placed there because he believed that he could still be gainfully employed by being placed in a castle where the princess is not being held, so that he might provide a useful service to anyone who infiltrates the fortress mistakenly.

Really? Wow. I missed that part. What an ass.
Anyone know what he and John Romero are doing nowadays?
IT's funny because Derek Smart has been the biggest douche in gaming for more than 10 years. He was already a huge douche back when John Romero was cool. Back when Thompson didn't know about games.
I mean, the guy trolled usenet groups.
Anyways, Raiden might be annoying, but I don't consider him a douche... Ocelot is the douche. And vamp too.
Joe, from Viewtiful Joe. But he's a Magnificent Douchebag.
Also, Spider-Man is kind of a douche.
(Surprise surprise, me replying to this post)
I wouldn't call Joe a Douche, more an easily distracted idiot. The game would have been half as long if he didn't plain forget by level 2 that he was supposed to be looking for Sylvia . I love the fact that for most of the game (until Joe and Alastor are talking and he's all like 'What... wait?! You mean Sylivia!') he's just kicking ass for the sake of it. Story spoiler-
I love how that was the reason Captian Blue went evil, he just lost his grip on reality, the only reason Joe didn't lose it was because he realised he was supposed to be doing something with his powers instead of just 'being a hero'/beating up endless bad guys until he got bored of it and desired to use his powers for evil
EDIT: about the Derek Smart thing, I haven't heard of him, that's all there is to it. Not a big deal.
I don't know, the Gman is up there with Jon Irenicus for me in that they're both pretty douchebaggy in action but they're hard to hate (in an out-of-game sort of way) because they're so friggin' awesome.
Fucker can stop time. He's like that smoking bloke off the X Files except he can do pretty much anything he wants.
The Mentor from Fable. The one with Obi Wan powers.
"Your health is low... perhaps you should use a potion.."
No shit sherlock, but I'm kinda trying to battle here...
My roomate was just playing through this game again, and we realized that he manages to know that your will energy is low when you're trapped in a prison, but doesn't seem to realize that one of his heroes is in a prison being tortured for a year and send help.
We had 2 rules for Goldeneye. No shotting someone without a gun, and no Oddjob.
wow we had the exact same 2 rules
although after a few beers someone would inevitably go oddjob and anarchy would break loose usually ending up in a real fight.......grandma shoulda known better.
You don't think the over-confidence and the witty remarks before totally wrecking somebody's junk isn't evidence of Spider-Man being a douche? He's awesome, but he is still a little douchey.

I'm trying to find characters that are just complete douchebags with NO redeeming qualities. Spider-Man is a cocky bastard but he fights for good. I mean, you could call the kingpin a douche, but he's not a complete douche, he looks classy, is smart and is a pretty cool character.

"Good luck. You'll need it." and you think to yourself, "No I don't, shut u-" and then ten thousand men with baseball bats beat you into something that looks like spaghetti.

Such rage, but It's so hard to hate them! I still hate the wife though. Turn into a snile Blizzard shadow creature thing.
The first chapter again? Heh. I can do that easy!
Fuck you indeed, Squall.

Suda51 is exempt from every rule.
Well, if the entire word is a number, that's fine by me.
frankly, both are assholes.
I don't know who is worse: people with numbers in their name, or people who insist on surrounding their names with x's or other nonsense

It's glorious.
Upload this and you get buttsex.
Even if you don't want it.
In the butt.
In retrospect that's probably not a good incentive.

What a douchebag!
ps Tommy Tallarico is a super douchebag. He's on a Kris Angel sort of level.
TT douchebag highlight: playing to a guitar recording for VG Live (maybe it was just for gphoria but it doesn't matter).
Also, Spider-Man is kind of a douche.
And Lord Garithos from Warcraft 3: TFT. Let alone the emissary he sends to you that says, "Be creative" when he takes all your troops away. DOUCHE.
That's really funny.

That's not fat, it's muscle!
How about Silvia from Viewtiful Joe 2? Man was she an annoying bitch.
