9 Badass Female Game Heroes That Changed Everything

6. Jill Valentine (Resident Evil)

Starting as they meant to go on (at least until part 4), Resident Evil gave players the choice of playing as either Chris Redfield or Jill Valentine, the latter of which actually packed more of a punch throughout the game when it came to combat. Thanks to the two of them being trained special agents, uniform-wise Jill was instantly a well-respected and regimented character, as well as a great choice that many players chose to take on the zombie horde, thanks to a bolstered inventory that traded damage for being able to hold more items. In the later releases Chris would turn into a ridiculously over-muscled meathead of a character, with Jill also donning a purple catsuit that was far more revealing than her previous attire. Still, forgetting the current abominations of what once was, the original Jill was a force to be reckoned with.
