10 Most Ridiculous Female Bodies In Video Games

10. Lara Croft - Tomb Raider

Yes, yes, let's just get this out of the way. Everyone knows that Lara Croft was a huge step forward in terms of strong, female characters in video games, but she was also a step back in terms of, well, accurate, respectful depictions of women. There's a rumor out there that Lara got her bodacious basketball boobies due to a programming error that increased her cup size by 150%, but that's a crock. Anyone who knows anything about 3D modeling knows that there isn't a "boob slider" that you can slide back and forth, like in The Sims or something. This is nothing but good, old-fashioned fanservice, and the developers knew exactly what they were doing. Did it work? Heck yes it did! Tomb Raider is a massively popular franchise. Thankfully, the developers did away with the "cantaloupes in the shirt" look for the most recent iteration of Lara and went with a more realistic image.
