Concept »
Extraterrestrials appear in many video games in a variety of styles. Sometimes they're evil, sometimes they're benevolent, and sometimes they're very similar to humans.
Fighting games which include a roster that consists entirely of women.
A female warrior from the Amazons, an all-female nation in Classical and Greek mythology.
Anthropomorphism is the concept of an object, concept or character that has human qualities or traits, such as speech, a level of intelligence similar or higher than a human's and self consciousness. "Anthro" means "of human" and related to the concept of humanity.
One of the original founders of the Citadel Council, the Asari are natural biotics who are among the smartest and most diplomatic species in the galaxy.
Baditude is being "edgy" in an obviously forced or fake manner. Games with baditude often feature excessive swearing, gratuitous violence, and content meant to shock or offend.
Games that have been banned, or refused a rating for one reason or another.
One of the Tainted Coil's hierarchy units in Brutal Legend.
The many lovely ladies who have been allies and love interests to James Bond.
The deliberate animation of breasts, meant to titillate as a means to conform to more realistic physics.
Also called a "Boob Slider", this is an interface that allows players to interactively increase or decrease the size of a character's breasts usually as a part of character creation.
Any game that lists Bust, Waist and Hip measurements for characters.
A character who attacks with their buttocks. Most common in fighting games. Not to be confused with the act of attacking somebody's butt.
A physics simulation or manual animation of a character's posterior.
A scuffle typically between two women that involves actions such as nail scratching, pulling hair, and slapping.
Videogames with extreme or controversial content will often be altered for release in certain countries, usually to comply with local laws or prevent cultural misunderstandings.
Games that feature cheerleaders. Whether they be girls with pom-poms or burly Japanese men, they know how to get people motivated.
Video game controversy revolves mostly around the psychological effects that games with graphic violence or sexual content in them can have on players. Other sources of controversy can range from racism, sexism, politics, or religion.
Due to crafty camera angles and conveniently placed objects in the environment, the nudity in the scene is obscured from view.
The concept of a helpless female character in desperate need of rescuing by the protagonist, in most cases from a villain, or from a form of impending doom.
Elves who have often been corrupted in some manner, changing their skin tone and leaving them with a predisposition towards evil. Sometimes called "Drow".
One or more events from someone's past that negatively affected them. Plenty of video game characters have such pasts.
The wear and tear of a character's outfit as he or she receives damage. It can be done for realism, but often serves to titillate.
Elves are a race found in a lot of games based on a fantasy setting. They are recognizable by their elongated ears and often live much longer than humans. Some are even immortal. There are many variations of Elves.
Often referred to as Hentai, Eroge is a video game genre which has (usually manga-style) pornographic content and artwork.
Fairies appear in many games, usually as a race that will assist players with magic. Fairies are almost exclusively female.
See? The exploiting, soulless people who run the video game industry DO care about their fans!
Games that feature an antagonist--someone who opposes the game's protagonist--that is a woman.
This concept is for games where at least one of the main characters is female.
Females with the double X chromosome, contrary to the fighters of the XY variety.
