I don't know if it was mentioned already, but this kind of along the lines of the topic, Playboy is doing another girls of video game feature. Last years version was less than impressive. It featured a bunch of minor characters from 3rd rate games. The only really recognizable character was Blood Rayne. Unfortunately, this year looks to be as lackluster. Here are some of the characters to be featured:
Jacqui - a cheerleader from Blizt: the League
Carla Valenti - from Indigo Prophecy
Cassidy & Tala - from Darkwatch
Alexa - a reporter from 50 Cent: Bulletproof
and random characters from God of War, Hellgate: London, and Playboy the Mansion.

Yeah, I read this a few minutes ago. If only Playboy would get Masamune Shirow to do the art! Or the guy that does the Magna Carta art (I forget his name but it is by far the best I have seen).
[quote name='Sleepkyng']Watermelons are a huge thing in Japan - especially in the summer. A gift watermelon can fetch as much as 15,000 yen, or about 150 bucks.
never could get into anime girls, tho the girls from Lunar will always be a soft spot [/QUOTE]
150 bucks? What's so special about it? I've been buying 15-20 pound watermelons for 4-6 bucks lately, since someone always has them on sale.

well, you can get a 10 lb watermelon for about 15 bucks.
$150 watermelons are the ultra mega happy super fun perfect gift sensations!
seriously. Apparently they are one of the best gifts you can give in a business environment (aside from nice booze).

Although I posted The Baroness earlier, Psylocke has ALWAYS been my favorite female comic book character (at least to look at). It took me a few minutes to find thees pics, but here's some interesting ones:
[quote name='bostonfrontier']Does anyone find it strange that you guys are comparing animated girls when you should be comparing real life girls?[/QUOTE]
Considering this site is primarly about games, I am surprised no one did a thread like this sooner. It's all in fun anyway.
Besides, I contributed more than my share in the real thread. :lol:
Xtreme331, that Baroness pic is awesome!
I'll see if I can find more Psylocke later. She was one of my favorites from the Capcom fighters.

When it comes to comic book femme fatales, I've always been partial to Angela from Spawn. I couldn't find more than one really good pic of her, though. I might have to scan in some more myself.
[quote name='Xtreme331']Thanks! I got that pic from my friend who is absolutely in love with 80s era cartoons (although i gotta admit i am too).
and for this post.... another pic of Faye Valentine from Cowboy Bebop: [/QUOTE]
Classy!
Yeah I still have fond memories of 80's toons. GI Joe, Transformers, Thunder-Cats, He-Man, She-Ra....good stuff. I loved watching USA Cartoon Express as a kid too. Herculoids, Space Ghost, Teen Force....

:lol:
I wasn't going to say anything, but I figured as long as I was nice about it it wouldn't hurt.
How about Emi from Tenjou Tenghe? I [strike]won't[/strike] ruin it by saying that her power is that can control and shape her obscene fatness... (Before anyone asks, I've yet to see the anime nor read the manga. I came across some images of the series during some surfing and just had to investigate the source of the captivatingly dynamic drawings further.)
Everyone prefers Rei to Asuka? Maybe I'm biased because I like redheads.
