I've never actually played Live a Live, Ginger. I'll defer to Enlong to tell you anything you want to know about it.

Well, there's always the Diablo series. Yeah sure the player wins in the end, but they always end up doing so in a way that comes back to bite them HARD.

Or StarCraft The human enemies tend to be a bit less so due to overconfidence/ego but that is more then made up for with Sara "I'm pretty much the queen bitch of the universe" Kerrigan.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines has some interesting villains because all the characters are villains to some extent.

The main villain of Live A Live is central to the whole thing, though it may take a while for one to make the connection, and longer for the game to show you how we got here. But the part where it does hits hard.

Also, gameplay suggestion for Live A Live. When playing Akira's chapter, equip all the robot-enhancing weapons as Accessories for Akira before his chapter ends. You'll thank me later.

Bloodlines is a great game, despite the bugs. The hotel freaked the hell out of me the first time I played it.

[up][up] That depends. There are a few different endings to the game.

Before the final battle, he certainly earns a great number of victories, though at a certain price. And if he wins the final battle, he wins hard.

What about space simulator games?
Because he know I'm going to go out in this plane and I'm going to remove one of His creations from His universe.

Well, New Vegas has plenty, though "villain" is subjective for most of them.

Dragon Age: Origins had a good villain. Did that get sent over to the PS3?

[up][up][up] You just said his competence varies and that all his victories come at some kind of price...

Oh, I just thought of something else with a competent villain - Watchmen. I'm not sure how much more competent you can get.

@Ginger: All victories have to come at some sort of price. If the villain can win just by waving a hand, then it's either hax when the heroes win or you get Darkness Induced Audience Apathy.

[up][up][up][up] Well, there's...

Look, to fully explain what I said would be spoiling the greatest plot twist in the game, so I can't clarify. All I can say is that I can't clarify what the victories are or what the "price" is. I'm trying to be cryptic and keep the surprise surprising, and I'm sorry if I made it sound bad in the process. I'm really trying to say that there the main villain is scarily powerful, and I suppose that I should mention that the non-main villains are also very powerful.
