"The Temptress" from the cover of the Lure of the Temptress...

I also found myself lusting after Christina Ricci from Adams Family... What? I was 13!!!! Come on people...


   Actually Christina was older than the part she played.  Especially in the second movie.

   When I first saw this message I was like "Bubsy!!"   Oh, characters I FANCY... not a fan of.  Ok...

    Well not counting a X rated game here and there...

    ... the first one was the girl on the Adventureland Scott Adams adventure:

   Wow, get a load of her.  And then later the Azure Bonds cover...

   I loved the cover art back when the cover had to be better than the game itself.

   That was especially true of the cover art for Custer's Revenge on the Atari 2600...

   Love that 80's Phoebe Cates haircut the indian has. :D

   Well, that's some for now.

Actually, I fancied both the Rick Dangerous boxes as well :-) (not the title screens... see here and here)

Most of the responses so far have been talking about the photos on the boxes, nothing to do with the characters in the games themselves.

Although I can't think of any particular pixellated babes on the Amiga, there are plenty on other, more modern platforms. For example, there are some cute girls in Grand Theft Auto games on the PS/2, and a few cute-but-cartoonish ones in games like Leisure Suit Larry for PS/2 and Xbox. Lots of people seemed to lust after Lara Croft as well, of Tomb Raider fame.

Restricting the matter to Amigas only, weren't there some cute girls congratulating you for winning races in Stunt Car Racer? Perhaps I am confusing it with another driving game though. They weren't actually characters, though, just static images.

My $.02...

Just go to http://hol.abime.net and search for Rick Dangerous. There are scans of the boxes.

You can pull my 'leg' any day ;-)


edit: Oh, on topic. The female governor in Monkey Island and the redhead out of Indiana Jones...
I like Amigas
