While Rebecca’s cheerleader outfit seems like a terrible idea during a bio toxic zombie outbreak, I think we can all agree that Billy is empowered for the job

I’ve logged on into my steam account, got a link to the new Resident Evil’s pre-order page with this picture in it, and… May we discuss how refreshing it is to see a girl getting a normal (albeit a tad short) cheer leader costume, and a beefy dude getting this ridiculous belt bikini for his impressive pecs? I don’t really follow this franchise, but if there’s more of this in it, it may be worth following.

While it is nice that the RE guys remembered there is a definite demand for empowered men, it’s kind of telling that they had to give him that over the top gun to remind people “just because he’s sexy, doesn’t mean he’s not badass”… meanwhile Rebecca is literally Capcom’s cheerleader and merchandise model.

Kaguya-Hime

Can we talk about how the legendary Kaguya-Hime (a beautiful lunar princess from Japanese folklore) was transformed into this abomination?

I’m not really sure how those garments even work, let alone how she’s supposed to swing that mallet around – I mean c’mon, it’s a beat’em’up game, not a dating sim…  Or is it?

Since I can already hear the furious typing of people rushing to assure us that we can’t judge this because it’s Japanese and things are magically different over there, let me just point out this studio not only put their games on Steam for international market, but they started marketing games to the USA and their biggest title on Steam is…. “Mahjong Pretty Girls Battle” 

Oddly the game site seems to make a big deal about her bunnies having to play games with her and protect her, but makes no mention of who glues that outfit to her every morning.  The bunnies, incidentally… look far more intimidating that the Princess herself:
