Revolver Ocelot

Had it not already been taken by Metal Gear Solid's gravelly voiced protagonist, "Snake" may have been a more fitting code name for long-time series villain, Revolver Ocelot. Duplicitous and treacherous to the very end (even past the credits), Ocelot has at least one hidden agenda for every bullet in his favorite sidearm, the Colt Army Single Action revolver. His penchant for torturing trespassing heroes is only matched by his precise and deadly aim, capable of predicting the path of a ricocheting bullet. In much the same way, only Ocelot can predict where his winding criminal career will take him.

Special abilities: Aside from expert gunslinging, Ocelot is capable of interrogation, torture, and last-minute double-crossing. He also has the president's telephone number.

Weaknesses: Ocelot's guns only carry six shots in a chamber. Being a slow process of ejecting casings and inserting new bullets, reloading leaves him open to attack. You'll also catch him blathering about how terrific his gun is.

Trivia: Ocelot has appeared in every single Metal Gear Solid game. Not even Solid Snake himself can claim to have done that!
