Video game girl crushes. You know you had one!

Girl characters used to be in the 'damsel in distress' role most of the time and if they were in another role it was usually the 'tom boy ' role which made them notoriously uninteresting. Usually girls could be found being dragged along by the male lead while being chased by something and then they fall down at the most inconvenient time. We liked the male characters because they were strong, fast and seemed to like yelling at people. They were everything we wanted to be. Then suddenly something happened...girls became the center of our universe, they seemed important...they looked good...oh my god we hit puberty. Now suddenly they were what we wanted!

Had to be Lara Croft when I first got Tomb Raider III on PSX

HarryMasonHerpderp4242d ago (Edited 4242d ago )

100% Lara Croft from Tomb Raider 3 ^_^
I used to buy the Official Playstation magazine just because it had pervy pics of her in it.

I can't say I did really and I do not understand how people do

TheMasterShake4242d ago

iamnsuperman4242d ago (Edited 4242d ago )

or I didn't find virtual characters attractive/had a crush as well they look virtual and are not real. Just me on this then?

claud34242d ago

Really a crush on a digital piece of crap... why on earth would anyone and why

shammgod4242d ago

Isn't your avatar of somebody doing cosplay of a video game character. LOL. That must express some level of admiration towards a "digital piece of crap". I choose not to believe your statement above

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

@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.
