hey where is Jill ? (og RE1 only) ......probably the most perfect represantation of a female in a video game...attractive hot ,caring , intelligent,dynamic and strong willed without being a ridiculous masculine takeoff of a femenist wet dream (or like every female representation in games developped by western studios ) but instead behaving sentimental toward her partners like every normal human female

Jill is cool but as far as Resi goes I prefer Sheva Alomar.

I would say the representation of any gender is subjective.

I would say the best representation of any character in general would probably be the Joy from Metal Gear Solid 3!!!

This character is as dynamic as I've ever seen.

Aloy is too.

nevin12603d ago

Not a big fan of female characters but these few are OK.

Elissa Steamer-Tony Hawk Pro Skater

Mileena- Mortal Kombat

Orchid- Killer Instinct SNES

Karin- Street Fighter Alpha Max 3 (PSP)

Regina-Dino Crises

Strange comment. If you are not a fan of female character why bother looking at the article and commenting?

Hypothetical bunch of people discussing their favourite piazza's.
1: I like Ham and Pineapple.
2: I like Supreme.
3: I like Margarita.
Nevin 1: Not a fan of pizza. Garlic bread is ok I guess.

Your problem is not female character is it simply how they've been portrayed but that technically can go for any character, my problem is not male characters, it's simply Bad characters in general.

gender is actually irrelevant to your problem.

(Hopefully)

Might be one of the greatest characters ever presented in a video game.

Elevating the medium tossuch a ridiculously high degree I don't even know if there's a close second right now.

There is no reason why other teams could not deeply Focus their character interactions around something like this.

robtion2603d ago (Edited 2603d ago )

I usually choose female characters over male where given the option.

Some of my favourites in games are:

Jade - Beyond Good and Evil
Alice Liddel - Alice The Madness Returns
Lara Croft
Emily Kaldwin - Dishonored 2
Amanda Ripley - Alien Isolation
Juliet Starling - Lollipop Chainsaw
Catherine - Catherine
Nilin - Remember Me
Kat - Gravity Rush
Nariko - Heavenly Sword
Bayonetta
Ellie - The Last of Us
Elika - Prince of Persia
Dragon Age Inquisition - Female
Mass Effect Trilogy - Female

Samus is my all time favorite. Nobody can mess with her.

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?

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.

MrNinosan16d ago (Edited 16d ago )

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

ravens5215d 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.

VIK212115d ago (Edited 15d 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 🤣

ravens5215d ago

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

ravens5215d 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.

Barlos16d ago (Edited 16d 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.

Tapani15d ago

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

Rebel_Scum16d ago

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

I_am_Batman16d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim16d 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_Scum15d ago (Edited 15d 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.
