icecold4u brought this wonderful article to my attention.
It all started with a little message from icecold linking me to the article and asking me these questions.
Well, I took a look at the list.
First off I am psyched to see that Tifa is on the list. She is incredibly sexy and one of my all time favorite characters of the FF series. But I will say that the cosplay chick had an even more skimpy Tifa-look going on. Why did she have to make it more sexy? Tifa is already sexy.
Now to answer his questions. I don’t necessarily take offense to the over sexified female characters. Video games were originally geared to males. And even though that is changing with the growing population of female gamers, old habits die hard. Plus, I have a fairly large rack, as do plenty of chicks, so why shouldn’t the female video game characters have them too?
I think it is funny that boys drool over female characters. But I’m guilty of drooling over some of the sexy male characters. It’s all in good fun
Sexy male and female gamers exist, so why not have sexy game characters?
Now it’s your turn to answer icecold4u’s questions. What do you think?

Before reading the article. It’s male fantasy, pretty simple. It’s been known that more guys play video games than girls typically.

The movies also feature skinny women with large breasts. I don’t think it’s so much a gamer thing as it is a human thing.

A lot of people, asked what the perfect female form would look like, would give the girl huge breasts and a tiny waist. That’s just the way it is. The fact that you and others have a huge rack has nothing to do with it at all- lots of people have tiny racks, why are they not featured? Because people like big boobs.
guest
anyone who finds a video game character hot or sexy is a fucking loser. lmao.
guest
Because video game characters with big boobs makes men want to have babies.

Because more men wil buy the game

guys play video games and guys like big boobs. Also its that whole ultra-feminine but will also destroy you with her powerrrrr thing that has been around for years and years and years.
I do find it kindof sexist and annoying, when the villan is doing topples cartweels.
but its not a bfd.
guest
It’s a little annoying, but thats just how things are. Lol.

The same reason that most movie stars/celebs on the “hot lists” always have AT LEAST a C cup.. they are merely reflecting current preferences in our world. One day smaller breasts will be trendier again. Also most games are made/produced in Japan. Japan… has quite a vain culture.
And plus, most gamers don’t get laid, so yeah, that helps. Although I think the only thing more pathetic than jerking one off to a video game character is bestiality or pedophilia…
For the record, I’m a girl gamer.

@A_NY_Zone61@xanga - It happens all the time. Usually Datingish and Lovelyish steal each others lol

@kaylamae31@xanga - In this case – it was lovelyish and Mancouch [there's no 'ish' in the name but it's basically still an 'ish' site].

I take issue with the title of this post. It’s not “always”–if you played a variety of video games, there are plenty of characters (although some aren’t major) that don’t have huge breasts.
But yes, there are a significant number that do, and of course it’s to get males to buy the game. Shoot, I like Dynasty Warriors for the hot guys…okay not really, it’s actually just a lot of fun but the hot guys are a bonus.

I will tell you now, the male characters can be pretty hot, too. And especially in the Japanese RPGs, they can have some fairly large bulges. You have to admit, it is the RPGs mostly, which only make more sense because in an RPG you are playing as a certain character interacting with hot babes or whatever. It makes the game more appealing when you get to actually play such a fantasy.

Because it’s hot. What kind of question is this?
guest
because the bouncy huge boobs showcase the 3D effect at its finest and caters to the majority male audience to motivate them to buy the game and play. in reality, the chance of seeing a female with huge boobs jumping and running around like lara croft isn’t common, so this fantasy comes to life in the game. they could go to the strip club but that is too costly.
guest
It doesn’t really bother me because there are some sexy male characters in rpgs, games and anime lolz *_*
guest
blah blah blah who cares.
guest
the main demographic for video games is YOUNG MALES. what do most young males like? FEMALES. why? BOOBS AND BOOTIES.
the equation is pretty simple!
sex sells!

Because you don’t expect a female to play Final Fantasy, Bloodrayne, or Tomb Raider as much as you’d expect a male.
guest
Because the world is going to hell without the soothing view of Lara Croft’s… personalities.
guest
I couldn’t read the post because I was too busy fapping to Lara Croft’s tits.

@chipshmunk@xanga - Tottally agreed.
I really hate it.
