10 Most Ridiculous Undergarments Worn by Women in Video Games
My love affair with gaming started 30 odd years ago. It all started with a text based game which was older than the PC itself, nestled into a Wang system sometime in the early 80s. My fellow word processing operators and I would imitate Star Trek characters (I was Scotty because I could do the accent) while we spent many lunch hours playing a game called “Colossal Cave” or better known as just “Adventure”.
It took us 2 years to get through it, playing only an hour a day. I built my first PC in 1985-6 and even at that time, text-based games were hot. Well, it was all there was!
I’m still a big gamer and have a real nostalgia for the text games even though I don’t think they exist any longer. I mean, if they did, where could you play them?
Anyway, it brings me to this fun article below (old, but I just found it). I’ve always considered myself a staunch feminist, but maybe I’m not as staunchy as I thought. Toon women are ridiculously proportioned and scantily dressed and it doesn’t much bother me. While I do choose some of the hotter looking Toons, I always have a few dwarves, goblins, orcs or some other terribly ugly creature. I guess it kind of counteracts the giant bosoms in your face.
You women gamers out there can dig what I’m laying down :) Interesting fact that most of you probably know. Roberta Williams and her husband, Ken, began one of the first gaming companies, Sierra Online and created King’s Quest, Police Quest and the Larry Laffer series (with Al Lowe). But before starting Sierra, Roberta and Ken modified the Adventure game somewhat and created their own version with some rudimentary graphics, not even quite CGI. So, you see, the feminist in me will always be satisfied. The road was paved by one of us.
Anyway, have a good laugh on me and I’d love to hear about your gaming experiences.
