20 Video game characters that get our blood flowing

Darryl Linington from ITF Gaming writes: Female and male video game characters have always caught the eye of gamers around the world. They even catch the eye of those illusive girl gamers that everyone seems to search for, but can never find. It just seems that fictional characters get our blood flowing in all the right directions, that is why we have compiled a list of the top 20 characters that get our blood flowing. Now before you jump to conclusions, I enlisted the help of Girl Gamer, Ashleigh Venter (yes they do exist) to assist with the male section of this article.

People should stop trying to sexualize video game characters, it's creepy

Lucretia4261d ago

ur a fool element.

thats like not sexualizing comic book characters, movie characters or anime characters.

your a sad person and def don't know that hot videogame/comic/anime characters lead to some hot cosplay girls.

josephps34262d ago (Edited 4262d ago )

Cloud looks like a girl. Look at the face structure.

Nova from Starcraft has got to have the sexiest ass.

Pozzle4262d ago (Edited 4262d ago )

To be fair, Cloud is supposed to be fairly pretty. After all, he DID fool Don Corneo into believing he was not only a woman, but an attractive woman.

Then again...Cloud also looks like the average 20-something, attractive, Japanese male celebrity. They might be considered feminine by Western standards, but these types of guys are at the top of most "sexiest/cutest/most handsome/etc men" lists in Japan...

Magic_Spatula4262d ago

I read somewhere that the design for Cloud in Advent Children (thus versions thereafter) was based on Japanese idol Gackt. He is also the person they modeled Genesis after, and the voice actor (Genesis) for the Japanese version of Crisis Core. Also, he had an appearance as Genesis at the end of Dirge of Cerberus.

Pozzle4262d ago (Edited 4262d ago )

I knew about the Genesis thing, but not about the Cloud thing. It wouldn't surprise me if it was true though. I seem to recall Nomura saying he has been a big Gackt fan for years, and Gackt has made no secret about his love of Final Fantasy.

(Gackt is also the guy in the top-middle picture I posted. Right next to Cloud.)

Pozzle4261d ago

I didn't say he wasn't. I like Cloud. :D

I like Gackt too. But that's a different story alltogether...

Lucretia4261d ago

Cloud, genesis, and tidus were all based off of gackt

Kind of feel like Nova shouldn't count since that game never came out.

R_aVe_N4262d ago

Really bad list if you ask me.

Hicken4262d ago

I wouldn't say bad, but it seems like it definitely could have been better.

-Gespenst-4262d ago

Would've thought Snake or Raiden would've made the dude list, instead of Ethan and the L4D guy or Desmond Miles.

Also how is Bayonetta not on the babe list?

josephps34262d ago

Bayonetta is not on the list because she's not human. No human has those freakishly long legs. Not saying I wouldn't tap that thing but that must be the only reason lol

DarkBlood4262d ago

what tall people dont exist or something? i believe that is mistaken in my opinion

-Gespenst-4262d ago

Not a reason for her not to be on the list as far as I'm concerned. Just another plus to me, together with DAT ASS.

Original Final Fantasy 7 - Is it Worth Playing in 2024?

Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?

ravens5210d ago

Got to Zacks part in 7 Rebirth. Said f it. Finishing my game in 7 og. Just got to part 2 yesterday. I also got Crisis Core... So it'll be a while before I'm back to Rebirth. I just keep thinking about it too smh, want to get back to playing it. Not till I know Zacks story though. I beat 7 og sooooooo long ago, it's crazy going through it again and remembering things.

MrNinosan10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...

ravens5210d ago

... Really 🤓 lol. His second part, I've played for 80hrs lmao. <---- PS5 Run time, probably not all game time. You guys know how it goes.

VIK212110d ago (Edited 10d ago )

Did you not ever play the OG FF7? After you recruit Vincent, later in the game, disc 3, return to that basement and look at the pod, there's a whole Zack story that'll trigger as a memory.... it's well hidden in the game and a lot of things regarding Zack are cleared up. FF7 Crisis Core is basically an extend feature of that hidden flashback... It took me years to discover it back then lol

MrNinosan10d ago

@ravens52
80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣

ravens529d ago

Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.

ravens529d ago

Not to mention fighting Titan at his full strength. Hours spent trying still haven't succeeded. Found all 3 ruins but I'ma masochist when it comes to games.

Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.

Barlos10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

It always takes me back to Christmas 1997, I got it as a gift and I was blown away when I played it. I couldn't believe games could look that good. The combination of pre rendered backgrounds and FMV really made it stand out. It definitely still has a certain charm that modern games can't replicate.

I can't imagine people will still be talking about Remake and Rebirth in 27 years.

Tapani9d ago

Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.

Rebel_Scum10d ago

Yes, play this, skip remake, start rebirth for new players.

I_am_Batman10d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim10d ago

Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

Rebel_Scum10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

I disagree Batman

Rise of the ronin sold twice as much as Dragons Dogma 2 this week...but no articles about that. It's only news if a PS exclusive is being outsold.
