You can't spell Umbrella without EA...
Ella ella
I see what you did there 😏
Yes you can...
A little bummed not to see DOOM (2016)'s Union Aerospace Corporation here.
Between the pillaging of Hell, creating demonic cyber soldiers, human sacrifices, rendering employees expendable...
Maybe on the next list. ;)
I'll never forget being a child and hearing Abe say "this is rupturefarms" and being immediately creeped out. Great game and developer.
Now we need a "10 Most Benevolent Corporations in Video Games".
Would there even be enough for that list?
@@Tatokat That's part of the challenge.
The Concordance Extraction Corporation from the Dead Space series, admittedly they have been corrupted by Unitology but their greed is a pretty big reason why the events of Dead Space kick off.
Bro the UAC has opened a portal to hell on MULTIPLE occasions. The worst monstrosities that Umbrella has ever created would be smears under a cyberdemon’s hoof within seconds
I'm insulted.
I'm with the handsome one....where the hell is Hyperion? Will happily destroy a whole planet for a bit of profit
yeah who tf made this stupid list and forgot about hyperion or uac from doom?
Ben is a fan of Borderlands so he might view Hyperion as the good guys?
@@Banquet42 After playing the pre-sequel and seeing how he was treated, I'll look the other way and claim Hyperion is a humanitarian corporation.
Peter: "Number 9..."
CZcams - promptly cuts to a Sainsbury's commercial
Me: "Sounds about right!"
I completely am not remembering that Mech sequence from FEAR 3.
The way you summarized the games' story pumps me up to play them. I wish games had some kind of intro as awesome as your summaries so I can without a doubt know why I'm slicing through security guards at the beginning of a game.
No mention of any of the companies in Borderlands or the Outer Worlds?
Shinra Electric Power Company. Basically generating electricity by burning the souls of the dead, if you think about what mako energy is.
Shinra, Hyperion and umbrella
Great list! Loved the real life entry.
No evil video game corporation can even begin to match Umbrella with constant infighting, betrayals etc; nobody would be safe with them around.
One thing to note the head of Project Origin was Harlan Wade (Alam's Dad), and to create the prototype offspring they used DNA from people working on Project Origin (INCLUDING Harlan Wade). Truth be told in a lot of ways Armacham is worse than Umbrella, for the most part Armacham is also scary competent.
15:32 the scariest thing is they aren't even the worst organization in the setting, somehow there are places that are actually worse like the guys that made E001 aka Evelin, i forgot who they actually are but i think they are going to be important in the upcoming RE8 so its worth looking them up.
I know it's 2 years too late, but they're a crime organization known as "The Connection"
What about Persona 5’s Okumura Foods?
Admittedly, their worst behaviour stems from owner Kunikazu Okumura, but they still attribute their overnight success to terrible working conditions, employee overwork and abuse, and the assassinations and intel gathered from inside the minds of its various competitors and detractors using the Metaverse.
All of this having the end goal of ensuring market dominance and expansion, including into international markets, and towards the ascension of Kunikazu into politics.
You got me with that number 1; I completely agreed. And then I did again. Dunno about Vault tec at 2... Ethics nonexistent but ultimately they did preserve humanity (at least in the States) through a nuclear war while using social experiments in (often insane yes) attempts to examine where we went wrong as a people. Obviously the panther was a trust building exercise (cough) and Stanley Milgram was only a step down from that sacrifice vault (actually not sarcasm). Compare that to the likes of Shinra and Cerberus... yeah I dunno. Anyway entertaining list but I gotta go, they tell me there's cake in the break room.
UAC from DOOM of course...(looks at other comments) man its easy to list evil video game companies.
The UAC is the worst. I can't think of any company that's caused more damage. Maybe the company from Horizon Zero Dawn too
@@Googaliemoogalie Yup, cos their experimentation with portals opened a portal TO HELL and unleashed a legion of demons that killed everyone, except Doom Guy.
Talks about how bad Umbrella is but fails to mention the Trevor family.
Calypso Industries from the Twisted metal series.
DataDyne from Perfect Dark.
Tried to clone/kidnap/assassinate the President, and willingly worked with aliens to acquire advanced technology to beat the competition in an arms race.
They sold out the humans to the Skedar too.
Weren't they deceived by the Skedar though? I can't remember.
@@phillipscheid4505 From what I remember That Mr. Blond guy was the leader of DataDyne or a higher up and he was just a Skedar in disguise. When they found out that tall lady in blue (Cassandra?) was betrayed by DataDyne goons who worked with the Mr. Blond Skedar guy. This is how I remember it.
Surprised you didn't include Datadyne from Perfect Dark.
I feel like the Dead Rising cooperation is so realistic. Also cradle pharmaceutical should be on the list.
The One Concern from iconoclast is up there with horrible companies.
The company in the Stanley Parable
in Final Fantasy 7, it was mako that was the lifeforce of the planet, not marko
Umbrella didn't have nukes.. they just abandoned their sites
Sidereal Plexus trumps all of these combined in sheer destruction many times over.
The UAC seems to be forgotten here. Ah well... making portals to Hell just isn't impressive for kids nowadays :P
Plot twist: All corporations are evil
Guessing Shinra and Umbrella top 2
I am making the umbrella crop real!
#1
Well darn! 🤣🤣🤣
No mention of UltraTech from Killer Instinct!?
Shame!
He should have included Tekken like either G Corporation or the Mishima Zaibatsu and he also should have included The King Of Fighters and that is the NESTS
Gotta say, Umbrella is not even half as bad as Vault-Tec.
Alright. Pack it up, boys. Nothing will ever top "Ben Pottage".
What about Ryan Industries from Bioshock?
Not really the same thing but I understand what you're saying
All of these are no different than the big companies who make video games.
How about CREO in the Surge?
Yeah, EA is the most evil, so evil it’s almost fictional.
Nook Inc. should be on here LOL
Number one: Disn... I mean yeah, Umbrella!
Faro Industries from horizon zero dawn quite literally ended the entire world. Completely. Like 100% destroyed every living thing. Should at least get honorable mention 😅
I thought that too. Faro is number 2 though because at least they let humans survive, just without technology. The UAC from Doom almost made human's and all Earth life extinct and almost destroyed Earth itself. They're #1
Does it get worse than Shinra?
You forgot The Murkoff Company
The Templars from AC
or just abstergo
Rupture farms in oddworld for me
But Sarif tried to make aug. available to all....
#1 is Google
**Sees in Video games**
#1 is Still google.
7:19 Don’t you mean Ben Pottage pie? ;)
I feel like umbrella has to be number 1 because they make monsters that can make other monsters. That is really dumb. I feel like monsters that can make other monsters should just be a byproduct of some kind. (Did not watch the full video)
EA,oh in game
Fontane futuristics?
Joja from stardew valley
LOL at the EA inclusion (not that i disagree).
Within the first 5,000 comments - FACT.
Hope you're all safe and well!
The umbrella corporation is so bad I saw this list and thought who are the nine other worst companies after umbrella
EA definitely wins
It's honestly amazing how much of a cautionary tale Dead Rising has become to the real world given covid vaccine patent control vs. curing such a virulent disease.
I love Ben from What Culture.
I love your delicious breakfast cereal!
I wouldn't want to work for CREO. A company that knowingly dooms 95% of humanity really isn't my cup of tea.
Czerka Corporation?
Everything in 40k
Comment!!! it helps the algorithm.
I do, David! D;
Black Mesa?
Sarif Industries but not VersaLife. Yeah, okay.
EA is top notch evil, but have you hear of bugisoft?
If you count games as their own worlds, then EA has wiped out multitudes of civilizations.
Whole universes engulfed and destroyed by the anomalous singularity of entropy that is EA.
I think it should count, I'm sure the EA logo appears in game somewhere, making it canon in a fictional universe.
Chariots chariots
Number 1. Whatculture
Honestly activision is probably worse than ea
14:50 Har-har.
ea
Oh what the hell, I'll leave the 100th comment 👍
W
Konami
Only british people call resident evil rezzy what's up with that?
F U C K EA
Nah Umbrella is a nice and friendly corporation compaired to the (EVIL) EA Games one!
I want to work for umbrella.
They have a lot of sexy girls in that universe
