I totally agree, J. The variety in male bodies is just fascinating, compared to the similarity in female body types. It makes me think about all the different types of female bodies that *could* be in games…

I must say, the lack of the Prince from Prince of Persia makes me sad. His look in The Two Throne is unbelievably sexy–even when he’s a sand monster. ;) He even runs around shirtless!

As for my likes, I usually waver between “muscular but limber” and “femme.”

I think the diversity of male bodies on the list is very interesting in comparison to the list of female bodies linked in that post. The female bodies seem to be diversified mostly through breast size. The men, however, are diverse in height, weight, age…

Scott:

Hmmm, I think there was a game that did that once. Didn’t sell too many copies. Don’t know if you’d have ever heard of it… Metron? Netroid? Something like that. I think the main character was “Seamus” or something….

Ah, Sam, that’s another good question: who would you do :)?

Mutant for Hire, I hear you all the way. I’m not a WoW player myself, but from what I’ve heard you can attempt to alter your character and end up with a body build that’s identical anyways.

Perhaps I just have odd tastes then — but I was commenting the other day to my boyfriend that Altair is perhaps the first male game character I’ve found attractive in any way similar to the adoration my male friends show to females. (In his words: ‘If he showed up at the door, would you do him?’ ‘If he wasn’t there to kill me…’)

But I saw his gait as more of a cowboy-like swagger than a girlish swish, too.
