Uhh I know I don’t read this stuff in detail but which of those was for the WII? Is that the Hotel Dusk for Nintendo DS?

I just got a WII during the holidays and need ideas one what to purchase for it. Currently I just have WII Sport. Tennis, Golf and Boxing are getting old.

You forgot Link from Legend of Zelda. Always a classic, always a hottie, and always in the closet!

Oh and let us not forget to mention Pitt from Supersmash Brothers.

Being a gamer, I’ve just gotta say…

The character from FFXII is named “Vaan”, not “Vaal”. (Dude, it’s in the filename!)

@Alex: I recommend Metroid Prime 3, Super Mario Galaxy, and Okami. Good luck!

How are these characters “homoerotic”? They’re cute, no question. But I don’t see the homoeroticness here. If I can get all “Princess Bride” on your ass – “I do not think it means what you think it means.” If yer gonna choose homoeroticism in your vid games, start with Marcus Fenix and Dom Santiago and the rest of Delta Squad in “Gears of War”. They in love!

Well, he is Crashdown in the first season of Battlestar Galactica so you don’t even have to imagine him unpixelated….

Wait, you said you could do a whole post about Final Fantasy characters. CAN you do a whole post! I’ve been a Final Fantasy fan since America’s III (VI in Japan) and I’d totally love to get all geeked-out gay nostalgic to that post!

This is more a post on hot guys than homoeroticism. But in that case you forgot Chris Redfield from the upcoming Resident Evil 5.

@alex the sea turtle:

Wii Fit is fun, but can kill you self esteem. And all the Rayman Rabbid games are fun, and you can play the newest one with your ass, which is hilarious. Cooking Mama is fun too, basically you do cooking and you can play versus. The Medal of Honor games are fun too, because it is a shoot and dodge game. The Harry Potter games are fun too, because you use the Wiimote like it is a wand. Mario Party is good, but it is frustrating how long you play the board game to get to the mini games.

@Joe M: “Hero” (does s/he have a name?) on the Fables is as homoerotic you can get considering that you can opt to have only gay sex. Plus s/he’s VERY expressive and fit…those gay stereotypes fit.

You’re doing a list of homoerotic male video game characters, and you left out Joachim from “Shadow Hearts: Covenant”? What were you thinking?

@Distingué Traces:

Oh…I hadn’t actually watched that video before posting it (just heard about it) and having now watched it, it’s a lot more homophobic than homoerotic.

Oh and who can forget Kingdom Hearts, that is at least a little bit homoerotic with a touch of disney. I mean Sora and Riku in Kingdom Hearts 2 were totally all over each other. Also the fandom has hot teenaged boys totally making out with each other for either more money or girl’s and boy’s numbers at the Cons. But then again a lot about the anime fandom, can lead to homoerotic situations. Like Yaoi-con were they auction off hot boys and drag kings in the name of charity.

I’m with Joe M. Squall aside, the rest of these guys just seem straight as an arrow to me.

If you really want homoerotic, then there’s Army of Two and Gears of Wars; Raiden and Vamp; Kingdom Hearts and Shadow HEarts have already been pointed out…Saints Row has you really protective over Carlos, in Mass Effect you can have lots of intense staring with Kaiden, Dante and Vergil (and a bit of Nero) from DMC (confounds me you don’t have them here), SF’s Ryu and Ken, KOF’s Iori and Kyo, the two sisters from Fatal Frame 2 are creepily close, Wesker seems to enjoy getting his hands on Chris Redfield (who is currently wearing the tightest shirt known to man) as often as he can, Leon and Luis from RE4 have been the object of many a fanfic, let’s just throw in Steve Burnside and Carlos Oliviera in there (tentacle rape all the way?) and, huh, can’t think of anymore. Anyone else got a list?

Please Drake has nothing to do with Tomb Raider. That wannabe has nothing on Lara Croft, regardless of his penis (which to some makes him more attractive but to me makes him more bland. chicks with guns rule)
He is in no assosciated with the franchise, and is no way more popular than Lara. In the slightest.

On a more ontopic note, most of these guys are pretty meh. There are plenty of sexier video game heroes out there.
Dante anyone? Little Devil May Cry?

For me it would definitely be Kaidan Alenko from Mass Effect. He’s just a secondary character but I played a female just to be able to flirt and eventually have sex with him.
Another hottie is Frank West from Dead Rising, hmmmm…

All the Final Fantasy games from 7 onwards are very homoerotic.

I think it was FF 8 where the teenage hero and his best “friend’ become enemies and the ex-friend captures the boy and hangs him in chains and tortures him!

Phew!
