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.

“Power and sex appeal is almost always a focus on the female character in video games. What do you think about this list? In a world where the female character in pokemon has shorts that will make a girl at hooters blush, do the female gamers (likeyourself) take offense that so many characters are projected this way? (Badass and Big Breasted) Just a random question :)

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?
