HOLY KNOCKERS BATMAN!
Found this screenshot comparison from the new Soul Caliber game from this cool article in The Escapist. Wow. Remember what I said about women needing to help out with video games? That looks so amazingly uncomfortable. She could never play mini-golf.

That is just so wrong. *shudder*
I suppose since she is a warrior, those are now classified as weapons of some type?
If being a boob-guy means you like them World Hunger Solving Huge…then I suppose I’m not a boob-guy.
soul caliber.. who plays soul caliber?!?!
i didnt read the article [lazy] but i smell
desperation..
with titles like TF2 and HgL on the horizon..
who can blame them..
when in doubt [or basic lack of creativity]
ADD BOOBS.. [?]
*they just look so inefficient…………
Silly girl!
Of course she could play mini-golf.
She just wouldn’t have to hold the putter with her hands.
Ok, this is getting ridiculous. I mean come on – even the most freaky programmer has to know better than this.
Although it is not the first game that put the developement focus slightly off track.. I immediatly had to think of this

It appears she put the bottom half of her bikini as the top. I’m sure that happens all the time…
Now that I think of it, there is certainly room for that sort of figure in mini golf.
With some good animatronics, you could revolutionize the game. For one thing, you could replace that damned windmill. And water hazards would be less annoying, given the right t-shirt choices.
Apropos to women needing to help out with video games, have you seen this news report (this version from the online London Times)?

I bet she sees a back specialist.
“Fake Ficuses”
’nuff said
Forgot to mention:
I’m not a big breast man.
If any of the women who frequent this website are thinking about getting themselves “enhanced”, PLEASE don’t do that to yourselves. If the size of your boobs makes a difference to the guy you end up with, then you’re with the wrong guy.
Me? If you’ve got an average body and pretty eyes, then as far as I’m concerned, you’ve got a +5 on your sexderity.
There needs to be a shirt that says “Shirt of +5 Sexderity” to be worn by someone who looks like Comic Book Guy.
Jeez…here I go again….well, think of these a bite sized posts: easy to consume in one sitting.
Stefan: that was macabre and LOL hilarious.
William: that was a very interesting article. But I wonder if that demographic shift is due to conditions in Japan. Japan is extremely urbanized and these applications of Wii might be an outgrowth of that urbanization: a way for frugal housewives to play expensive outdoor sports in their home, for “free”.
Japan has evolved a very interesting financial dynamic. In many Japanese households, the men go to work, while the women stay at home and handle the family finances. The low interest rates of the Bank of Japan (BOJ) has been a driving force behind a significant portion of the world economy (do a google search for “yen carry trade”). Japanese housewives have been borrowing Yen with a 0.5% to 1% interest rate , then investing that moneyin higher yielding instruments in other countries. The 40-62 year old demographic cited in the article is very heavy with these the “kimono traders”.
Courtney….I forgot, you should send that one to Matt Groening.
The action babe on the Holding Out for a Heroine masthead is herself blessed with an ample, self-supporting bosom. I suppose that she wouldn’t be a proper video game heroine without it.
If she asked to play minigolf with me, I don’t think I’d turn her down.
I can’t help but shudder when thinking about the pain of little metal parts against human flesh, like the steel thongs in WOW. Um, ow. Chafing.
There’s no way she could fight with those in the way…
I know plum, like, what if she’s in a frost cave fighting yetis? OUCH!
Ouch… I’m just imagining the scene from A Christmas Story.
Cold metal + nether regions…
/shudder
Ewww… That’s not cool at all.
