Top 7 "That's a Dude!?" Game Characters

"Damn, that girl is smokin... oh... that's a guy?" Surely, gamers have all fallen victim to such a scenario. Not you, you say! You're a hardcore gamer with 20/20 vision and a keen eye for Adam's apples and moose knuckles? Fine! Many aren't as perceptive, so GamesRadar has decided to highlight those brave folks who might not have gotten their sex the first time around.

This isn't simply an excuse to point and laugh at the femmy kid, heavens no! GamesRadar is well aware there's no humor to be mined from the transgendered, and that being gay is, most certainly, serious business. Nay, this article is a semi-researched, gender-bending celebration!

There is Bridget (Guilty Gear) but no Poison (Final Fight)?

Going androgynous (or totally shemale in those 2 cases) is pretty usual as a decision of art direction for japanese games. FF is one name to say because it's well know on the western, but actually tons of games have androgynous tidbits and you don't even realize...

Like Jin (Tekken) has a most feminine shape of face/head. The same goes for Mitsurugi (Soul Calibur) and Dante (Devil May Cry) and none of them even lightly resemble women.

It's just too damn deep in the modern japanese culture. Like, most animes and mangas, the actual "beauty" of a man is pretty much close of the ideal of beauty of a woman, reason why they usually don't have beard or any fur except hair, long and colorful mane, real slim body (some even with slim waist and pronounced hip), between others.

Estrogen push the body to a different construction. Specially in the head, it make for a more child-like face. And the more strogen, the larger the eyes and fuller the lips.

Actually, this is not the terror movie you must be thinking now ('oh my god, japanese woman are all lesbians!'), actually it's just the desire for a more child like structure as an ideal of beauty that is expressed by both men and women, there is nothing wrong with it, actually many other nations have or had this on their social interactions, Greeks to say one.

Call it cultural mark.

You know whats odd is I have read a few of these types of lists and almost every one of them has Tidus on it. Honestly you have to be retarded to mistake Tidus for a girl for even a second. He looks nothing like one not his hair style and not his costume either. Personally I have never thought a guy was a girl or vice versa with the exception of Bridget and that was because that was the goal of the character. They wanted you to like Her only to find out that WHOA its a he.

Very humorous. I have actually had a more positive experience using PSN when compared with XBOX LIVE. People on LIVE are very loud and obnoxious for the most part. People don't talk alot on PSN, which is nice, but I have ran into some annoying people as well.
