Several years ago, a game called Bikini Karate Babes was released. Part parody, part cheesecake panolpy, this fighter featured digitized graphics of real female performers, giving it a Mortal Kombat-style of look. It actually didn't take itself too seriously, featuring among other things fart moves and special attacks that had fighters stealing off their enemies' tops. Really, it all looked and moved more like an amateur effort and not a serious entry into the beat 'em up genre. Well, I didn't really care about that since the game featured, well, bikini babes- to be more exact, barefoot bikini babes... so it was great for me.
Since then, the studio responsible- Creative Edge- has been plugging away at a sequel, Warriors of Elysia. From all indications, WOE does a 180 away from the original, adopting a more serious storyline and tone... well, as serious as an all-out war set on an island populated completely by hot barefoot babes in bikinis can get. The game has been in development for what it seems like an eternity, but apparently it will finally see release on PC this October. As cheesy as it is, I can't resist a game full of so many live-action barefoot martial arts beauties... too bad it's on PC (I'm on Mac), so unless they put out a version for OSX or consoles, I'll have to pass. Still, we'll see, as it's still a long way to October. For now, enjoy the full trailer, just released recently on Youtube.
It's like Mortal Kombat, but with barefoot bikini babes!

Greetings Sole Keeper,
ReplyDeleteCan't hide it anymore. I visit your page quite a lot in my downtime. Nice blog you got going on! ^^ Quick question, do you happen to have super street fighter 4 for xbox?
Anonymous: Glad to hear you like the blog! Unfortunately my copy of SSFIV is for the PS3- while I do have an Xbox360, I can't fathom doing hadoken and dragon-punch motions on the crappy directional pad of the default controllers, nor do I like paying monthly Gold fees...
ReplyDeleteOf course. *nods* It's understandable. Was looking forward to a chat/fight session with you. =(
ReplyDeleteWow...this has to be this has to be the best idea for a game ever. Fantasy type of woman battling it out in nothing but bikinis. :-D
ReplyDeleteI loved the trailer alot. Awesome post Sole Keeper.
P.S. great new color scheme. ^_^
KSC: Thanks! Glad you like the new look... I call it 'White Lili'. Heheh...
ReplyDeleteAnonymous: You can always chat with me here in comment sections of the blog, or on my Youtube Channel. I'm always up for nice talks with fellow foot/game fans. ^_^
That's good to know Sole! ^^. I actually have tekken 6 and SSF4. You guessed it, fav'd characters are Juri and Lili.
ReplyDeleteI'll be looking forward to this game as well, primarily because I love bikinis which usually goes hand in hand with being barefoot. Love your new header by the way, especially the image of Lili's sweet soles on the left.
ReplyDeleteThis is great, hope they have plenty of shots of the girls on the ground unconscious.
