Some television shows are ripe for interactive adaptations. Like Grey's Anatomy, or The Young Ones.
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.
A protagonist who lacks some or all of the qualities traditionally seen as heroic.
A board game is a game played on a mostly-static surface using markers or chits to indicate player progress. Many video game board games are based on tabletop games (Catan, Monopoly), but some, like Mario Party and Culdcept, are original designs that use board game design as a starting point.
A game where cards are used to fight your enemies, or one where you make a "deck" with different abilites. Some examples are Culdcept Saga, Yggdra Union, and Phantom Dust.
A concept that has been popularized since the days of the European colonial empires. The main bad guy is seemingly old, white, although not always human.
The elite squad within Frieza's henchmen, compromised by the strongest of his men and those with unique abilities.
Whether it be Mario vs. Bowser, Jedi vs. Sith, Link vs. Ganon, or Elves vs. Orcs, the forces of good are in an eternal battle with the hordes of evil.
A living being who is the product of the reproductive mating of two different species.
Special or stronger units than standard ones, usually found in strategy games. This is not necessarily the same thing as a superhero or a game's protagonist.
These games are based off of established licenses, such as movies, comics, or TV shows. Examples are the James Bond 007 and Spider-Man franchises.
Often appearing in role-playing games, the reluctant hero starts out not wanting to fight, but ends up getting drawn into the conflict nonetheless. If not forced into it against their will, they are often motivated by love, honor, or a sense of righteousness.
In the Dragon Ball Z franchise, the Saiyans (also known as Saiya-Jins) are a warrior race from the Planet Vegeta.
The Demon Clan Namekian's signature attack in DragonBall Z, mostly associated with Piccolo.
Super Speed is the ability for a character to travel at speeds normally unattainable by regular humans. Super speed can be a stock super power by characters such as the Flash & Sonic the Hedgehog, or a technologically enhanced ability like Nomad in Crysis.
Strength beyond normal human bounds, i.e. lifting cars, bending metals, shattering a street with one's fist.
A malevolent character whose goals are evil in nature. While villains are commonly featured as antagonists, not all antagonists are necessarily villains.
Just as heroes sometimes fall from grace, occasionally someone who works for the forces of evil will turn their life around and become a good guy.
For games that have either wholly or partly Japanese title names.
Defenders of Earth and the Dragon Balls in the Dragon Ball Universe.
