				Cloud, FFVII. One of the most popular games characters of all time purely because of his marvellous taste in female underwear.
 
 
					
				Art imitating life? Thongs sell the most, don't they?
Nah, that's not it. Just listen to Paul.
 
			
			 
					
				
			
			
			
				 
			
			 
			
				 
 
					
				Game designers only make underwear in size XXS. Game characters just have to make due, and flossing ensues..
 
 
					
				Most? That sounds like an exaggeration.
 
			
			 
					
						 
					
						 
					
						 
					
						 
					
						 
					
						 
					
						 
					
						 
					
						 
					
						 
					
				
			
			
			
				 
			
			 
			
				 
 
					
				Hey, don't knock it, this is a great thing. If they didn't wear thongs, think about how much poorer Gears of War would be. But playing it as Augustus Cole is just the best thing ever because his big black arse is just so cutely contained by that tiny thong thing he wears
 
			
			 
					
						 
					
						 
					
						 
					
				
			
			
			
				 
			
			 
			
				 
 
					
					
						 
					
					
				Men/boys like sexy women. Early on (and honestly, still today) the largest demographic of gamers was male. Sex sells. It always has, so why not with video games.
Oh, and 2+2=4 btw.
