when the game gives you the chance... which do you choose and why?

I always choose female characters... and before someone tries to go freudian on me...

If I'm gonna spend 20+ hours seeing my character's backside... it better be a girl's backside :lol:

Same here, I like looking at soft backside.

However, in MMO I pick male characters to avoid getting hit on.

Depends on the games story, sometimes I like being female to see what dialogs appear or if the choice of different relationships come up. (rarely happens.) But usually I'm male character, why well just because I am male, I'm boring! yay! But on some games honestly they make females weaker, don't know why I like the option of choosing and character customs, makes a game better. Lol. no girls on the internet, you know they will probaly hunt you for that?

yes they may be weaker (physically) characters... but also faster...

women, being as smart and intelligent as they are will notice the "no girls on the internets" part was just a joke and will forgive me because of their kindness :)

I believe women are way too occupied ruling the world to be watching over 2 dudes talking nonsense...

ok now I went too far...

if women ruled the world it would be a bit better place though... downside: it'd a very pink-ish world...

That depends really. It depends on which character I think I'll like best. I'd pick Jill Valentine over Chris Redfield for example, yet I'd pick Leon over Claire.

Nope that will never happen. Also just to correct you Men have invented pretty much everything you use so show some respect. Back on topic I always play male characters except RPGs because in RPG's they always do a good job and make them real. For example Seth in Lost Odyssey one of my favorite female characters in an rpg.

If you create a character in the game? I create a guy because I could pretend it is me.

If the characters are already made it doesn't matter.

Normally I'll do what ever I think looks better. Like the clothes/armor, general look of the character, etc. Except for Mass Effect, I HAD to choose a male character. I tried a female once, and when Kaiden started hitting on me, I was like O.O and reset!

Usually, in games allowing that, I play several times as male (that's my gender), and afterwards I give it a try by playing as a female.

Most of the time I'll pick a female charater for astetic reasons. Like the thread poster, If I'm going to be stuck looking as the same person for the entire time I play I want some who is easy on the eyes.

Sometimes there are other reasons. For example, Guild Wars: Nightfall has a class called the paragon. They have a very angelic look about them. There is something really unnerving about the male paragons. Since I rarely ever see a male paragon I assume I'm not the only one who finds them kinda creepy.

For me I always pick the Male character because I like the male figure and they seem to be stronger and have better designs IMO.

Depends for me, usually if given a choice I end up going through the game with both so it doesn't really matter which one I choose first.

If I have a choice I always go female. But I don't feel strange when a game asks me to play a male character. But I do like it when games give me the choice to choose a gender and customise their clothes etc -I just love customisation in games.

But I have to say some games go way over the top with breasts, (I like em but....god they are like jelly blimps.) Have you seen IVY in soulcalibur? honestly, have they never heard of a bra? Still its nice to play a female once in a while, but again I would rather have choice of character custom and make one hulking brute of a male to destroy a couple of enemies I wonder if they will ever make a GTA where you can be a female, it would be nice to see what options and where the story leads you. (perverted grin, yeh i know i'm sad.)

Well in shooter games...the female is thinner/leaner meaning that you have a better chance of not being shot :P But i go for males because I generally enjoy playing as bulkier characters as i think they look cooler. However my friend (male) made a female character in Runescape back in the day..........bad idea in retrospect......very, very bad and disturbing too.....:S :P

I notice that in games like Phantasy Star Online women are usually magic users... poor magic users, thinking they can do things :P. If it's a game like Saints Row, I might have answered yes, just because all other 3rd person shooter/driver games have you playing as a guy, I mix it up. And, no, mix it up was NOT a euphemism for something.

The way the male paragon dances doesn't help, either. I would also toss in the Ritu, as watching a male perform the complex ritual animations is somewhat disturbing as well, whereas with the female, it just has this elegance that by itself makes the class worth playing.

I tend to use the female characters more often than not. I usually just tell people "it's because they're fast!" but I'm not sure if I really mean it.

I usually pick female... especially if she's hot. I think it has to do with some deep seeded inner feelings I might have of wanting to be a hot female porn star.

I usually pick the male. Sometimes I pick the female if I'm playing online with someone just to be goofy. And of course, I lived more than a year of my life playing FFXI as a mithra and convincing other gamers that I was really a girl in real life. :lol:

Lol, For those that fell for such a deception know that the difference between the sexs are. Male= Ugly, smell, gruff, filthy, insane but in charge. Females=Cute, hugable, lovable creatures with boobs and bum. Yeh natrually it would seem female was the better choice but in a game don't overlook the power of male. (If you took offense to this then I would like to take the time to say sorry.)

Male. 1) I'm a guy. Plus I occasionally like to recreate myself in a game. (Depends on the game though). 2) Men rule over women, and history has shown they are far superior to the opposite sex in just about every aspect. Always have been, and always will be. ( :P )
