Fat yet fit game characters

Tyranitar24 | August 13, 2008 | Top List | PC Playstation 2 
GamesRadar takes a look at the fat characters in video games and the amazing skills they shouldn't possess, ranging from stealthily robbing a house to dodging bullets like they were nothing.

In addition, they also write about what the characters would really be doing if they were real.
Video game characters are increasingly becoming the poster children for gym membership. With most of gaming’s heroes and heroines being chiseled, pert and with cheek bones you could grate cheese on, there seems to be less and less room for the more gelatinous gentleman in the industry.

That’s why we thought we’d celebrate those characters who said no to Atkins and still managed to pull off moves that would shame most gold-winning Olympians. But while they might seem fighting fit on your console, we’ll look at the grim reality these gaming goliaths would face as a result of their big bones.

    I love it when we have these mystery lists and the game links on the bottom completely *bleep*ing ruin the surprise.

      Not to forget the giant images with bright backgrounds, showing off the characters in all their glory.

    ...oh God, not another flippin' list. Have they done one on video game characters with glasses? That's two lists right there if they split them up by sex.

    Kirby isn't fat. Yes he's big and round, but he's like a balloon. He weighs like nothing cause he's just filled with air. So why shouldn't he be able to move fast and such? This article FTL.
