*MAJOR SPOILERS*



The Boss's faux double-cross...or would that be triple-cross?...in MGS3.

I knew about the Lance Vance one (read the guide in advance), but Big Smoke surprised me. I had a feeling Ryder was gonna turn heel, but I didn't realize he was "The Outsiders" to Big Smoke's "Hollywood Hogan".

Maybe this is just me, but in one of the Smackdown games, the one where Teddy gets hit by the car and it's revealed YOUR CHARACTER was the one that hit him. Not the greatest storyline, but you felt you were so sure of who it was and then it's revealed it's you.

How did you get that result, whenever I played it was always Chris Jericho.

Ogrim Doomhammer killing Blackhand in the Warcraft story.

Maze in Fable. Although, it wasn't a total heel turn, I didn't really see it coming.

And I agree with Big Smoke. I knew Ryder would turn, but didn't think Smoke would too.

And for a reverse... I never expected Kalus to turn back to the good side and help Kameo. I came close to shedding a tear when she gave Thorn the Kiss of Death and became the sacrifical lamb. (Although, I knew The Mystic was turning heel)

Wesker from Resident Evil 1 immediately comes to mind. (can't wait for RE5) Never saw it coming when I played it through the first time.

But who else? I'm sure there are many others.

I kinda figure it was Wesker when watching my cousin play the game and he let Barry die in the mines

BB in Max Payne

Jade Empire. "Glorious Strategist" indeed.

The Big Black guy who turns on you in Gladius (though I can't remember his name at the moment).

Odd Eye in Shining Force 2 is up there, too.
