A couple of problems with the examples you're giving. The Laracroft character is fictional and when she was rebooted into a much younger character sany realistic 2014 age and timeline became irrelevant which is usually the point of a reboot. Even in Underworld she looked very young and since...

If anything older male playable characters are pretty common. Joel from The Last of Us is past middle age. Snake from Metal Gear Solid is middle aged and ridiculously old in Metal Gear Solid 4. Max Payne in Max Payne 3 is middle aged. Isaac Clark from dead space is middle aged. And these are...

I think one of the most overlooked things about female main characters in Japanese games is very rarely are female characters over the age of 30 featured as playable characters. Sheva was 23 in RE 5. I know Jill had to have been 31 in Revelations but I think she was in it by popular demand.

Well I can see what you mean. I really liked Metal Gear Solid 4. The Metal Gear Solid franchise has been a really great place to find really strong stories. But not every gamer wants "emotional value" from a game and the characters. And I'll admit sometimes I just want to get to it and play a...

Well if you want less action you're in luck because Resident Evil Revelations tones down the action. But heres the thing about closing up and wrapping up "stories." Most of the time not every wrapping up story needs to be told. Not every game needs to pull a Metal Gear Solid 4 and tie up every...

I think some cynical reviewers were too busy rushing through the game to get their reviews out and ended up bashing it instead of appreciating the smaller and subtle nods or looking at the big picture of what Resident Evil 6 represents to the rest of the franchise. I love how everyone is finding...

Holy Crap you're right! O__O that's pretty cool

I think some people hated it(when compared to 5) because there was more action and increased mobility (even though the new [and optional] controls were streamlined toward mobility and modern shooters and having to fight the deadly and faster J'avo enemies). I think another reason people hated...

Hah I'm glad that you mentioned that because in every Resident Evil game there have been two playable characters. Usually one male and one female. Even in Resident Evil 2 3 and code veronica you were never completely alone even if a lot of the games felt like you were alone gameplay wise. I mean...

I loved Leon's campaign, but I like the J'avo enemies better in the other campaigns because they are tougher and smarter.

The 2nd Chapter in Chris's campaign where they are inside the big building cover with that nasty goop with dead people in cocoons. Its the same set up as main entrance of the original mansion from Resident Evil 1. Simmons underground lab is like the umbrella underground labs. The cop Leon...

Awesome. The mercenaries can get pretty addicting for me. I like being able to try to top my own scores rather than compare myself to other really good players. The extra character movement in RE 6 makes mercenaries so much more fun to me for some reason

I think what is being overlooked though is the kind of female characters that are featured in Japanese games and their age range. From the Japanese games I've played like all the Tekken games, Soul Calibur, Resident Evil, etc. Is that Japan game developers seem reluctant to feature female main...

Yeah I never cared for bias complaints either. I can understand people not wanting something too different sometimes. I just wish they wouldn't trash so much otherwise good (or decent) games or people who like those games. I didn't like RE Operation Racoon City but I'm not gonna trash people for...

Hah yup people can be really stubborn. They say the don't want to play the same game over and over which is what I heard a friend of mine say when they played Resident Evil 0. But then they say they don't want something different from what they've been playing. Yup makes total sense to me.
