Yeah, but I think OP is asking for examples where the villain's backstory justifies the character turning evil. That's slighly different from simply having a reason behind their acts.

Hugh Darrow (Deus Ex: Human Revolution),
Superman (Injustice: Gods Among Us),
The Stranger (The Walking Dead),
Karl Ernst Rasch (Crysis 3),
can't think of any more examples though. Oh, and The Dog from Silent Hill 2.

Andrew Ryan from Bioshock. He was a visionary, but he had to deal with psychotic murderers like Fontaine and dumb-ass lost kids that get back to the city and work for him thinking he'll help them :-p.

Hector Le Mans and Domino Hurley of Grim Fandango; one of the most common evils: taking advantage of other people to better their own situation in li-- err... in death.
GLaDOS in Portal/Portal 2: for science...? Maybe...? No... nevermind... she's just insane. But I think her insanity is justified.
