What A Pretty Girl... Wait, What's A Guy!? Top 7 Gender-Confused Game Characters

August 27, 2008 in Top List comments 29

We've all come across them before... Those pretty game characters who we think are female, but turn out to be male. Some poor gamers out there still believe that some of these beauties are girls!
Here are GamesRadar's top 7 "That's a Dude!?" game characters.

Go to the source for the full list.

Damn, that girl is smokin... oh... that's a guy?” Surely, we've 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 of us aren't as perceptive, so we’ve decided to highlight those brave folks who might not have gotten their sex across the first time around.

    That list was dyer and I don't understand why Tidus was added unless there was no one they could really think of XD.. You just know that he is male :/

    A pretty good list except Tidus, they always have to rag on about a Final Fantasy character don't they? There are more feminine males than him by a mile.

    I'm surprised Larsa (FFXII) and Kuja (FFIX) aren't on the list.

    Tidus doesn't have any reason to be on there.

    That's a pretty freaking random list. I second that Kuja remark (seriously, I did a double-take when I saw him). Most FF guys really strike me as too feminine, but that guy really takes the cake.

    And I thought NiGHTs is supposed to be androgynous?

      I'm gonna third Kuja. Who the hell looks at Tidus as a chick anyway? Does the guy that wrote the article always see women with muscular chests or something?

      And I still can't see how Bridget is a dude...wtf?!

        Well, Bridget's story is that he was raised AS a girl in his town. Now he's on some journey to prove his worth as a male. One of the more silly characters of GGXX

    I know I'm gonna get majorly flamed for this, but Gackt just comes across as a fag to me. Good lord, why does he style his hair like a girl, it's not right.

    STOP PUTTING THE ANSWERS INTO IMAGES ON THE ARTICLE.

    Talk about a way to spoil the surprise.

      You're going to find out anyway. One extra click isn't going to make it any more surprising. >_>

      (though I'm saving the lazy bums, who can't be assed clicking the source, the effort)

    Good points. It was REALLY funny though.

    NiGHTs is a dude?! WTF?! The voice was some chick I swear!!!

    The one that made me cringe the most was Bridget. I mean, a nun outfit, and the name itself implies full-on female. Plus, the fanart pic they have of 'him' is like the most feminine pose EVAR.

    Scarred Red 9 is scarred.

    What happene to Lucius from Fire Emblem?

    Some of those were rather obvious (Tidus for one, what kind of blind ***** thought he was a chick?)

    Birdo is pretty unfair. It's like saying any cat, dog, or animal. It's not easy to tell for a different species.

    The dudes on this list are crying for a boogie in their butt. Epspecially GACKT!

    Someone please tell me why Tidus is even on this list? And heavens sake I don't see where where him not having his shirt off in blitzball meant he's feminine since well most of the other guys there had shirts on as well.

    Wow im surprised Vaan wasn't on the list.

      If Vaan were a woman, then that pose would make it pretty damn obvious. xD.

        It has nothing to do with that picture, I just grabbed the first one I saw. The fact is Vaan is a girl, P***y, and he should be on the list more so then Tidus. I mean honestly his voice even sounds girlish, and he does look like one.

    Everyone's gay fro Bridget - it happens.

    Birdo though? That kind of threw me for a loop.

    Bridget is a guy! D=

    Tidus doesn't deserve to be on that list at all though. Really, there's no point.

    I thought Nights was androgynous. And should traps really be included here? I thought the point was 'hurr hurr, tehy look liek girls', so I'm not sure why someone who was *supposed* to look ambiguous makes this list.
