I actually laughed at the Voldo description

Actually surprised Fear Effect didn't make this list, since that's another PS1 game that got most of it's publicity from it's 'sexy' female lead. And the implied lesbianism from the sequel.

The four people above me somehow posted a year ago. o_O

Also, this could've used some of the female wrestlers from the Smackdown! series.

OK, never mind that thing I said about the people posting from the distant past.

"You can’t fool us, Michael Jackson". That comment almost made me cr*p on my pants. It is very hilarious.
But seriously Nina looks like him in that shot.

what about Meryl Silverburgh from Metal Gear Solid 1? she looked fine in those codec call sprites, but in 3D, gawd... did we really have to see that thing's ass?
Harmon20  - 4 months 21 days ago 
take THAT Tifa lovers! oh, and her non-battle appearance was even worse...

And I couldn't help but notice that her legs in the official art are about 1.5x the size of her from the waist up...

Just think, the next generaton will look upon our video game characters, and think THEIR hideous.

lmao @ Silvermech--"C'mon guys, everyone knows that boob physics didn't really get interesting until the 'hyper gravity' era!"

I never understood polygon 'babes.' My friends had this whole fangirl thing going with Squall and Zell from FF8. To be fair--I think that Aya Brea looked ehh better? (in cut-scenes AND in-game) in PE II (still fugly) than in PE.

LOL @ Nina from Tekken 2. I thought of Michael Jackson before I even read the caption.
