Just out of curiousity...
What are your 5 favorite females in videogames?
And
What are your 5 favorite villians in videogames?
I love asking these kind of questions. < Might be because i'm special.
Ooh, ooh, opinions!
[collapse=Females first]
#1: The Boss. (mgs3) Technically she is a villain as well, but i won't put her on that list for her not actually being evil. She's the best female character i have ever seen in games, with a deep past and a set of ideals that one should hope to achieve. Her death was terribly sad and ****ed with my head as well as my heartstrings.
#2: Lucina. (FE:A) Probably the strongest female character not wearing a white sneaking suit. Despite being from a doomed future, she has nothing but hope and resilience, and basically changes the future with the power of will alone. She's up in this spot mostly due to this and her personality really being fleshed out in the games and dlc. (an obvious advantage awakening units have over other FE chars)
#3 Faith. (Mirror's edge) Not much to say about Faith, besides a miracle she pulled in me playing the game. I constantly forgot who i was playing as was a girl and fully immersed myself in the story. Faith is the first female protagonist that could successfully pull this off for me, so she deserves this spot just for that.
#4
Raiden Cynthia. (Pokemon) This isn't a filler position, i swear!
#5 Rosalina: (Mario galaxy) She'd probably be higher on this list if it wasn't for the complete over saturation i've had with the character since the 18th of December. She's an interesting character with a great background story,not to mention being the first really powerful female character in mario games.

Phew, that was a bit more thought required then i.... thought
[collapse=Now4villains]
#1 Blue Oak (Pokemon) Who else did you expect really? This smug ****** was always a step ahead of you, and he had an attitude to match. It was wonderfully chilling when you realized that Not only did he get all the badges faster than you, but he beats the game faster than you no matter what. He definitely left an affect on me, as i am now a douche-bag, and for some reason get the name of all my friend's rival characters.
#2 Liquid Ocelot (mgs2,4) This guy was the most tricky ******* in the whole series, and he knew it. Every time you think you had a victory, he would just pull up and basically say, "guess what? It was all a ruse! You've fallen into my trap!". Ocelot knew your every move, and up until the end he was on the winning side for that reason. Not to mention the 2 fights with him in mgs4 are some of the best in the series.
#3 Giygas (Earthbound) Nightmares personified. This guy is pretty much the most terrifying boss i've ever had to face, for multiple reasons. A completely destroyed mind of an almost endless power is something by itself, but when you cannot even begin to fathom the power of his strikes, you know that what you're dealing with is way out of your league.
#4 Ganondorf (Zelda) This guy is also here for sheer tenacity, years and years of deaths over different timelines don't even phase this guy, it took a sword to the brain followed by being turned to stone and buried under the sea to get rid of him (for good?). That's some tryhard **** right there.
#5 Dr. Eggbotnik (sanic the sanichog) This guy is a genius and he's tenacious to boot. Any normal person would've given up, but Eggman always tries for the last word, he has failsafe after failsafe and will always try to defeat sonic in a last ditch effort, even when he knows he's lost. Too bad he can't do ****.
