9 Hilariously Ugly Video Game Babes We All Had Crushes On

5. Jill Valentine - Resident Evil

Give us a female character to control, and we'll fall in love with them - it's that simple. Although nothing about Jill was sexualised, implied (outside of being a sandwich) or even remotely suggested, thousands of gamers worldwide justifiably fell for her amateurish fish-out-of-water scenario, guiding her through the corridors and spooky rooms of the Spencer Mansion, growing more attached with ever zombie-dodge and trap-escape along the way. Over the years Capcom would sex up all their characters - Chris Redfield in particular looks like his arms have been inflated five times-over these days - but its with Jill that many of us made that initial connection; one that despite everything, still ranks Ms. Valentine in 'Sexiest Game Character Ever' lists to this day.
