Joker destroyed Arthas...
He's not even a game-created villain. lol. Unfair competition.
Ya well my vote goes to big D. Vader originated from the movies. True, he won't have been there if he wasn't part of a good game, but the popularity is more than just the game and that sucks.
And I voted for Kerrigan, because I greatly dislike Mario and company.
sif people choose darth. he made his choice in despair and repented when he was renewed with his son. diablo on the other hand is a chaotic entity of pure evil jumping from form to form. its all up to the fangirlage now. im glad they made the new diablo closer to his original form in d3... probably because hes no longer emerging through another (btw what happened to his stone?)
Diablo is perfection as a game character, Vader is not.
Vader is perfection as a character, Diablo is not.
Diablo is "just a demon", he doesn't really have anything unique that makes him stand out from all the other demons, except that he is more powerful. but his charisma is perfect for a video game. You can basically change just about anything about him and he will still be accepted if there is a good lore explanation.
Vader on the other hand is very unique and easily identifiable anywhere, but his characteristics are not at all suitable for video games (laser swords and the force, laser swords and the force, laser swords and... you get it). He will never be as epic and versatile as Diablo as a video game character. He is simply too limited by being the awesome Vader.
Increase their size 5 times, or change their look in any major way. For Diablo? Yes, it works, we already know that he can take many forms. For Vader? No, that would be blasphemy. Vader must stay as he is because he is under geek-protection, that makes him great for movies that require static characters, but not for games that requires them to be versatile.
diablo is not just a demon, he was not formed the same way.take away his body and he still exists. and he does have character, read some diablo lore and youll get some. his characteristics are... focused
Vader, The Death Star, R2D2, Lightsabers, The Force (telekinesis), Yoda and Jar-Jar. Forgotten these will never be.
Yeah, but why? I mean, I know Jar-Jar will never be forgotten as the most hateable character in Star Wars, but what compelled the author of that poll to compare Diablo to Darth Vader anyway?
If the comparison is between which is the hardest to kill, I think it's a bit unfair for Diablo since there hasn't been a new Diablo game in almost a decade and the game mechanics back then for making a badass boss were limited compared to all these newer Star Wars games which aren't even in the same perspective.
As far as storywise, Diablo is definitely more than just some raging devil that kills and destroy things. But a person playing Diablo needs to pay more attention to its lore to understand that. I will, however, give credit to Darth Vader for never being a villain that goes, "Mua ha ha ha haaa!!"
C'mon guys, Vader is winning. We must do something. Tell your friends to vote. Diablo is the dark side! vader is merely a servant of it. Diablo = lord of terror (he is the reason there is something called evil) wearing a black mask, a black cape and having breathing problems dont make you evil. Come on vote 4 Diablo.
Diablo can ass rape Vador. Vador's genitalia was obliterated when he was killed. A man-chick if you will. Besides, nobody can top the Lord of Terror, the most famous of The Three Prime Evils.

Like someone said, Vader is a movie villain, not a game villain. He shouldn't have got so far, and neither should've The Joker.
My votes: Diablo, Ganondorf and Bowser, didn't vote on the 4th one since I didn't know any of them.
