Imagine creating a popular video game that pretty much everyone plays. The Damage: see entry for “Umbrella” above, these guys are basically the same if not worse.
#BLACK MESA RESEARCH FACILITY BADGES FULL#

Guess who was a major backer for Tricell? That’s right Albert Wesker, former Umbrella big-wig, and evil badass. Tricell seemed to have it all, but as this list shows, there was obviously some kind of secret dealings going on. A new company stepped up to “clean up” WilPharma, and bought them out. This company, WilPharma, was found to have ties to Umbrella and was linked to the trade of T-Virus specimens to terrorist groups. You name it these guys did it.Īfter Umbrella’s much needed closure, a new company seemed to pop up in its place overnight. The Damage: Viral epidemic, destruction of more than one village and/or town mass murder, gun running etc. Soon all manner of bad dealings surfaced revealing a huge network of research facilities and all their bad deeds. After a mishap in a secret underground research facility a viral epidemic is released that causes “zombies” to rise from the dead. Problem was that they also bio-engineered weapons for shadowy governments for the highest bidder. They were a fairly well received cosmetics and pharmaceutical company that helped charities and all the other things that a company is supposed to do. The Damage: Scientific mishap results in demonic invasion.Īs a company, the Umbrella Corporation was on cloud nine. Suddenly it is revealed that the portals actually link to Hell itself, and all manner of demonic legions infest the bases with their sights set on Earth. A teleportation gateway was developed that seemed quite troubled as those who entered it either never returned or went insane. The Damage: Release of a deadly virus with the cover of being saviorsĪfter creating a stable network of interplanetary bases on Mars and its two moons, UAC decided that it needed a quick way for one to travel from one base to another. Not to mention that VersaLife specializes in bioengineering new life forms and other dastardly deeds. Little does everyone know, they also are the ones responsible for bio-engineering the virus in the first place, and plan to use it for a bid on world domination. The Damage: Arms race causes mass murdering sentient computer.Īfter the outbreak of a virus, a glorious pharmaceutical company steps up with an anti-virus much to the joy of the population. GLaDOS proceeds to kill most of the folks inside, while trapping others. Abandoned at some point, the main facility of Aperture is left to be controlled by a sentient computer system called GLaDOS. While not as bad as what Black Mesa went through, its closest rival was also run through quite a few problems during the Combine invasion. While the facility is destroyed, the tear still exists causing a multidimensional race called the Combine to take the earth over. The messy situation gets worse as the government decides to send in the Hazardous Environment Combat Unit to basically nuke the facility and the nearby town itself.
Monsters from the other dimension fill up Black mesa, killing most inside the facility. The Damage: Corporate greed leads to white collar crime of game company CEO.īlack Mesa Research Facility – Half Life seriesĪfter discovering a new dimension and testing materials found within, a tear in the space time continuum occurs causing mass havoc. The games do well, but Wario decides to steal all the money in a rocket. This is hard work, and Wario needs help from his buddies. He immediately rushes out to buy a new computer and concoct all manner of quickly made mini games. Wario is at home one day hearing of the great money to be made from videogame sales. Spoiler Warning!! Some of these descriptions may contain spoilers, so be careful. What has been compiled is a list of the top ten “troubled” corporations in videogame storylines, in no particular order. Fictional corporations haven’t gotten off easy lately either, especially those found in videogames. Whether it be poor accounting practices from ENRON, oil spillage from British Petroleum, or even the bank meltdown of last year there are a lot of problems going around. It seems that being in a big multinational corporation these days makes one slightly hated individual. By VGChartz Staff, posted on / 11,529 Views
