Since we have been recently talking about the female side of video games, let's not forget about the female video game heroines who have been adventuring, defending justice, multi-tasking, kung fu fighting and shooting up stuff for years.

So who is your favourite female video game character and why?

Even though she's not a monster slaying adventurer, my favourite female video game character is Franziska Von Karma from the Phoenix Wright series.



Franziska Von Karma is an 18 year old courtroom prosecutor, from an early age she was a child prodigy and at the young age of 13 she became a prosecutor in Germany. She's a tough courtroom opponent for Phoenix Wright and when Phoenix makes a mistake she's not afraid to give him a whipping, literally!

Her character is generally cold towards others, especially Phoenix, but as you progress through the story you find out she isn't such a bad person after all.

SAMUS. EVEN IN THE BIG-SHOULDERED SUIT SHE'S THE HOTTEST THING TO HAPPEN TO NINTENDO.
Also, Zelda's pretty cool. In a shallow, always-gets-captured-in-the-games-she-decides-to-show-up-in, also-lends-her-name-to-games-she-can't-be-bothered-to-show-up-in way

My personal favorite would have to be Samus Aran from Metroid. Simple reason really, she has one of the coolest suits of armor I've ever seen (short of Warhammer 40k Space Marines) and makes a living blowing stuff up. That and the fact that she useually goes around killing local wildlife (seems that she also has something against peta...I like that).

I also find it interesting that when it comes to the topic of sexism in gaming, people are very quick to deny Samus' femininity since she happens to be a strong female character (and protaganist, thats even rarer) who acts alone and litereally kicks ass under the pretense of her wearing full power armor throughout the game (that would undermine their arguement though, wouldn't it?).

Heather from Silent Hill 3 and Victoria McPherson from Still Life. I love headstrong women with attitude.

Kairi, Kingdom Hearts 2.
Yuna, Final Fantasy X-2.

Yes, I liked Kingdom Hearts. Sue me.
The reason I choose these two is because they aren't bad-ass action girls, which is annoying as fuck. Also, they're hot.

Barring that, whichever ones keep their mouths shut.
That is so shallow and stupid i completely agree.
