Snake's Top 10 Video Game Crushes(pics included)

Yes, yes, it was only a matter of time before this list came up. Every true nerd has to admit his/her virtual crushes. What can I say, I believe video games are art and, well, these designers know how to make some beautiful worlds with beautiful characters. Not to mention, the stories are so well written at times that you get connected to these characters the same way you would reading a book or watching a movie. By no means am I going to give in and marry a video game or character like that dude in Japan, but I'm not gonna deny that these girls, virtual or not, are pretty damn hot. Please feel free to comment on your favorite, and enjoy.

Snake's Top 10 Video Game Crushes


10. Bayonetta (Bayonetta)
Ok, some of you are already rolling your eyes. The game was cheesy at times, but I really enjoyed playing it and Bayonetta is pretty sexy. I just love how she taunts ANGELS with her body and sexuality. It is naughty and she just puts it out there. Plus, she's got some cool weapons and smooth moves.




9. Lei Fang (Dead or Alive series)
Out of all of the gratuitously rendered hotties in DOA, Lei Fang has to be my choice. The long, dark hair, her high-slit dress, she's kicking your ass in stilettos, it was just all awesome. Also, her fighting style ensured that she would be kicking those exposed legs all over the damn place. Pretty sweet.




8. Samus Aran (Metroid Series)
This almost seems a little cliche' at this point because of Samus' resurgence in popularity, but I really love Metroid series and hence, I've always had a connection with Samus. She may be in the suit most of the time, but let's be real, she kicks some serious ass...and that's pretty hot.



7. Rayne (BloodRayne series)
For those of us who wish we could BE Dante from Devil May Cry, we wanted to MARRY Rayne. In my book she still reigns as the Goth Queen of Video games. Sorry Bayonetta. Also she's a vampire, what's not awesome about that...except Twilight. Fuck you Twilight.


6. Mai Shiranui (Fatal Fury, King of Fighters)
With the explosion of fighting games in the early 90's, alot of gamers tended to overlook SNK in favor of Capcom's Street Fighter and Midway's Mortal Kombat. Those of us rabid fans of fighting games, however, took to SNK and I really think it paid off. An often forgotten character in America, yet one of the most common Cosplay's you will see, Mai is just hot. Everyone was busy watching Chun-Li and her mega-thighs jumping all over the screen, and missed the very scantily clad Mai kicking ten-times more ass in King of Fighters and Fatal Fury. Oh Mai, you can kick my ass any day.



5. Joanna Dark (Perfect Dark Series)
I'm really waiting on a new game to revitalize this series. I love this series and this heroine really deserves a game that does her justice. She's rough and tumble, knows how to work technology, and is the hottest super-agent I've ever seen.



4. Poison (Final Fight)
Now we're going way back and obscure, but can you blame me? Poison would probably be even higher if I had the chance to see her character in action on TODAY'S consoles. Oh well, we still have the memories and the fan art. So what makes her hot? First off, she's got the bad-girl, cop, stripper thing working for her. She's like straight out of a glam metal video. It is ridiculous. Daisy Dukes, high-heels, and a barely hanging on shirt. She really has that "when I'm not having Lesbian sex, I'm using dirty needles and screwing guys for money" look about her. She's the chick you literally have to weigh the options over. "Am I going to catch something?" Well yea, to be honest, probably if she just breathes on you. So if you're a few drinks down, you've probably already made your decision and there is no saving you. You're so bad Poison.




3. Tifa Lockhart (Final Fantasy 7, Crisis Core,)
Tifa is a HUGE fan favorite, and it is easy to see why. She is very feminine, but she's a brawler. She's the perfect "guy's girl". She's the chick that will sit and drink beer and eat nachos while watching football and then throw you out the window when you get too drunk and ruin the game for everyone.



2. Morrigan Aensland (Darkstalkers series)
I'll make this easy. Let's forget about playing her as a character and I'll just tell you what's up. She's a succubus, dominatrix, and can change her clothes into whatever she needs at the time. Maleable wardrobe. Yes. There is nothing wrong with any of that. I just told you that she is going to rape you, and she'll wear whatever you want her to. I need say nothing more.



1. Aya Brea (Parasite Eve series)
Ahh, my first and always video game crush. Aya Brea is just an awesome character. Super-feminine, yet an ex-cop, who is the only one that has the powers to fight the evil that terrorizes New York. If you've played the games, you already know what's going on, and it is hard to explain to those who have never played it, but I'll give it a try. She's 39, but since she developed her powers (the regen specifically) she's trapped looking like she's still in her early 20's (when she got the powers). So basically, you get the best of a cougar in a body that looks like a college freshman. That's pretty awesome. Basically, she's a sad character that you really pity, and you just connect to her. Plus, she's gets hotter and more mature through the games. Just a side note, Parasite Eve: The 3rd Birthday will be arriving in North America in the near future. If you want to see what Aya looks like on the PSP, I suggest you check out the trailer and stills from the game. It looks amazing...and so does Aya
