Within my researched post I've included screenshots and imagery of the heroines from the video games I've chosen. I also found "In the Making Of..(Game)" footage of the game designers and creators of these characters. I delve into the character concepts and interviews and analyze their reasoning on the character design. As I go into researching each character . It seems like the designers and publishers use sex appeal to sell women video game characters for profit. Despite the popularity of characters Lara Croft, Nariko, and Sheva. There have been disappointments such as Ayumi from X-blades. But, there is at least one gem of a video game character that deserves praise despite poor sales, Jade from "Beyond Good and Evil".
I go in depth with these characters in my researched post as well as putting personal input from my own experiences.
