  The Colossi

  ..from Shadow of the Colossus. I had a sinking feeling every time I brought one down. It was a feeling of destroying something grand and beautiful.

  Slimes

  ..from Dragon Warrior. These low-level nobodies don't even have arms OR legs. Hell, they're even smiling! How can you hate something that rolls for 1d2 damage??

  He was SO lovable that he was made into a hero of the Donkey Kong Country series!

  Goombas

  ..from Super Mario Brothers. The stupid little things have no arms and aside from looking angry, aren't very dangerous. I pity their stupid existence more than anything.
