Top 5 Video Game Babes

It's been a while since I've had a dork post. Doesn't really any dorkier than this.

5) The Dark Queen (Battletoads, Battletoads & Double Dragon)










Number of gamers who actually managed to go toe-to-toe w/ the Dark Queen: 8. While being an Elvira look-alike, she managed to come up with some of the most punishing levels in the history of gaming. Speeder-Bikes anyone?

4) Mai Shiranui (Fatal Fury 2, King of Fighters, Capcom v. SNK)











Sure, the girls in Tecmo's Dead or Alive series have their own Beach Volleyball game, but Mai's been jumping around w/ her tits hanging out since the 16-bit days. She kicked high first.

3) Joanna Dark (Perfect Dark, Perfect Dark Zero)











Agent Dark managed to successfully steal 007's thunder. Goldeneye may have had the Bond license, but it's sequel [the original] Perfect Dark became an instant classic the second it was released. Thankfully for her follow up she dolled up a bit and dropped the butch lesbian look.

2) Chun-Li (Street Fighter II, Marvel v. Capcom)











The most recognizable Street Fighter character behind Ryu, Chun-Li has definitely earned her spot in this list. Such a fan favorite, Capcom had to rework the original Street Fighter III storyline after fans demanded that she be placed into the game (SFIII doesn't have her as a character, SFIII: Second Impact rectified that). Only one other digital damsel ranks higher than her in the videogame arena...

1) Princess (Peach) Toadstool (Super Mario Bros., Super Mario World)











Her royal highness herself. Could there be any other choice?

Honorable Mention

Emi (Dance Dance Revolution)











Everyone loves dropping the bomb with Emi. I think its because of the big marshmallow hat.

Ulala (Space Channel 5)











Space Channel Five sucked. Space Channel Five 2 sucked. But ya know, Ulala was cute. And both of those games had Michael Jackson in it. Good enough for me.

Krystal (Star Fox Adventures)








From my time spend cruising videogame message boards, I think that if you constructed a Venn Diagram that consisted of Furries and Videogame players, those two circles would overlap waaaaaay more than they should.

Perfect Dark Zero is a prequel, not a sequel. You fail at being a gamer!

Perfect Dark always pissed me off because it was the exact same thing as Goldeneye, right down to the maps, just with different textures. Gay.

I know its a prequel, but in the grand scheme of things its a sequel. I mean Goldeneye and Perfect Dark had nothing to do with each other, but everyone's cool w/ PD being GE's sequel...

...now where does the whole TimeSplitters series comes into play??

Different textures... About 10x as many weapons... Triple the speed (as in, Joanna runs about 3x as fast as Bond ever did)... Bots with scaling difficulty... Customizable gametypes...

It's the same game insofar as Quake and Doom are the same game :).

Yeah, Bond ran slow as shit. I don't know what I was more thankful for RARE doing - speeding up the game or adding secondary functions to all the weapons.

The Dragon's proximity self-destruct mode was a brilliant addition.
