They may be the heroes for saving the day from whatever cataclysmic event that shatters the peace,but when it comes to dressing for the occasion,these video game characters just haven't thought it through.Here are my top picks for the worst dressed video game characters ever to grace our television screens.Prepare to get your eyes burned.
#5. Jill Valentine(Resident Evil)At first glance,there might be nothing wrong with her outfit...if she's spending a day at THE MALL.But when your town's overrun by hordes of brain-hungry zombies,the last thing you'd wear is a tight tube top and short mini skirt to limit movement.Imagine trying to escape the clutches of the undead in this getup.They'll be chomping her down in no time.Come to think of it,that might be a good thing,if only to spare us the sight of such travesty.
#4. Mai Shiranui(Fatal Fury & King of Fighters series)I read somewhere that in ancient Japan,female ninjas,or kunoichi,dress scantily in order to distract their targets long enough to go for the kill.In that case,Mai must have had killed a lot of people,right?Wrong.When you're spending most of your time trying to not let your clothes fall off of you during battle,something's just not right.Also,I blame her for the negative views held by most quarters of society that gamers are a horny bunch of losers.
#3. Tingle(Legend of Zelda)He is not a well-known character,and we should keep it that way.Tingle looks like what would happen if a crossdressing midget and an Irish wrestler mated.Which was why he never saw the light of day in any future LoZ games again.
#2. Bridget(Guilty Gear XX)If Japanese videogames have taught us anything,it's that it's okay to have the hots for a young nun.Until you realised that Bridget is actually an underaged BOY.Guys have not looked the same way at Guilty Gear again.
#1. Tidus(Final Fantasy X)It says a lot when there are only two pictures of Tidus in his original outfit on the first page when I searched him on Google Images.The rest are fanmade artwork of Tidus in clothes lightyears better than what the developers had in mind for this protagonist of the immensely popular FF10 video game.Fans were filled with mixed emotions when he sacrificed himself in the ending to the game.Sorrow,for losing a great lead,and joy,for finally having him leave the screen for the rest of the FMV.
So there you have it,5 of the worst fashion ideas in video games ever.And did anyone realise that all the characters featured above are from Japanese video games?Hmmm......
Beginning from today,I'll be bringing you the Top 5 Best(or Worst) of anything that's related to our favourite interactive pastime.So if you have any suggestions for future topics,do leave them in the cbox.Thanks.
