A Sort of Scavenger Hunt

Post Posted: Post subject: A Sort of Scavenger Hunt

I've noticed some gaming trends, and I would like your help. Please find me the following:

1. A Square or Square-Enix game where the main character doesn't use some manner of bladed weapon.

2. A Japenese game where all the characters have clearly identifiable genders.

3. A stealth shooter that doesn't star a borderline sadistic rough and ready mercenary.

4. A modern day action game that doesn't star a stubbled young to middle-aged man with brown hair.

5. A big name franchise game that is universally agreed to have sucked (not counting Final Fantasy X-2).

Ki ki ki ma ma ma. No, don't turn out the light. Yeah causes hes back. He's the man behind the mask. And he's out of control." -Alice Cooper

Yeah, but only because your options in the bosom department for the ladies are Ample and Tig Old Bitties. From the neck up some of the create-a-characters and OCs could go either way...
