Barefoot Warrior Babes in Dynasty Warriors 7 Empires!

Here's a refreshing change from our usual fighting game contribution to our barefoot babe collection. Kaymac201 on Youtube brought to my attention that the Edit or Create-a-Warrior mode in the just-released Dynasty Warriors 7 Empires has barefoot customization as an option (not sure if it was ever available in previous DW games). So now you can conquer the Warring States of Ancient China as a barefoot warrior woman or Amazon!



Crush all opposition beneath your warrior woman's lovely soles!

I do plan on getting the game, but for now here are a couple of vids that I found that show off the Edit feature and the options for outfits and weapon skills available. The graphics of the character model looks good enough, at least with detailed feet for our pleasure (even if I'm sure most of the time the views will be a bit zoomed-out). I've never really been a fan of this series, but this may be a nice change of pace.



Some of the weapons and attacks are pretty wild!

The game is available on PSN only for US gamers (since the game does not have an English dub, only subtitles). It's out on disc in Asia. I'll have more on this soon.

Kasumi Barefoot and Bikini-clad in DOA5 Plus (PS Vita)

Kasumi shows off her body and soles in the DOA5 upgrade.

Not a day has passed since I posted last about the upcoming Dead or Alive 5 Plus (PS Vita), but now clearer pics of the portable fighter's barefoot heroine Kasumi have surfaced at Team Ninja's European Facebook page. Well, from the pics we can finally confirm that Kasumi will be barefoot in at least one of her swimsuits- we still don't know if she's shoeless in just this suit, or if footwear can be toggled from this or other costumes. Hopefully this outfit isn't some limited edition exclusive nonsense though.

Anyway, Kasumi is looking hawt, and really I can't figure out how Team Ninja missed the barefoot boat in DOA5. Well, they're finally looking to be on board with footfans' desires with Plus. I am really hoping ALL the girls have a barefoot outfit/options like Kasumi, so it will be really worth getting a Vita.
Though I am sorely tempted to already plunk down the downpayment for one, seeing how hot Kasumi is. The 'touchscreen' vertical mode is also pretty intriguing. Heheh...




 Nice views look to be the norm in DOA5 Plus.

There's still quite a bit of time before the game's March release, so we'll probably be seeing more of it online soon- perhaps a cool trailer to show off the modes and the outfits? Anyways, I'll be on this like a hawk and I'll post more media and info as it comes. How much is a Vita again..?

Bikini Karate Babes Mobile on Kickstarter

Let's have more barefoot babe fighting games on the go!

Aside from perhaps the upcoming Dead or Alive 5 Plus, there really aren't that many portable fighters (good or bad) with barefoot babes in them. If you've got an Android phone, you can get a PS1 Emulator (FPSe is my recommendation) and enjoy the original, classic Dead or Alive and unlock the babes' swimsuits for barefoot beach babe action. On PSP (Original) or 3DS, you can have some barefoot action in Tekken 6 or Tekken 3D Prime Edition. That's about it.

So really, the more barefoot babe fighting games get ported to mobile, the better. The sexy and funny brawler, Bikini Karate Babes is being ported to iOS and Android, which means sexy bikini and barefoot fighting action wherever you go. But to get this done, the creators, Creative Edge Studios, need quite a bit of help. They've started a campaign on Kickstarter to fund the game's development. As of this writing, the pledges are nowhere near close to the required amount. So I'm here to try and get more gamers- footfan gamers- to pledge some loose change to help. All that's needed is at least 5 dollars for a good return- the full mobile game AND an exclusive character.

So if you can, please give your support to this! I'm sure it will turn out cool. Aside from the vid embedded above, you can check out the BKB Kickstarter page here.

Dead or Alive 5 Plus (PS Vita): The Next Big Barefoot Babe Fighter?

Among other things, the scan confirms at least Kasumi can be barefoot in DOA5 Plus.

Okay, a bit of good news and bad news. The good news is, well, according to the below scan for Dead or Alive Plus (PS Vita) from the latest issue of Famitsu, it seems that indeed there will be some sort of barefoot customization or barefoot costumes in the game. As we can see in the scan despite the crappy, blurry quality, Kasumi is obviously barefoot in her bikini. We're not sure yet if the outfit comes without footwear by default, or if you can toggle the sandals (I suspect you can toggle, since this was something asked by foot-loving gamers last year in a petition). I'd love for this, since it may mean that every girl can be barefoot, and hopefully in not just their swimsuit outfits but in other costumes as well.

To add to the tease (aside from the first trailer of DOA5 Plus), I found this tantalizing pic of Pai Chan posing in her swimsuit sans sandals on the Team Ninja Facebook page... man, does Pai look scrumptious.


Barefoot Pai in DOA5 Plus? Sign me up!

 In addition to the potential barefoot awesomeness, the PS Vita version of DOA5 also come with a First Person Touchscreen mode where you can battle your opponents using the Vita touchscreen, even launching them with juggles and observing them from various angles (well played, Team Ninja). Looks like TN is pulling out all the stops with DOA5 Plus- Gravure scenes, teasing camera angles, touchscreen controls, more than 100 costumes (according to the official site)... and now, barefoot customization? Color me impressed. Oh, the bad news? Looks like we're going to have to shell out the cash to buy a Vita, folks... if this game turns out to be all that it looks to be, it may be worth it. With Tekken and SF being quiet all this time, looks like Dead or Alive 5 Plus (which will be cross-compatible with the PS3 game) is going to steal footfans' hearts this March.

Vilja (The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim)

Vilja is a vision that should brighten any Skyrim playthrough.

Apologies to many for my recent lack of updates both here and on the Channel- I've found myself quite lost once again in the vast expanses and labyrinthine underreaches of the virtual fantasy world known as Skyrim. This is in no small part to my recent upgrading to yet another new and slightly more capable laptop- still not a powerhouse of gaming, but enough to give the world of Tamriel that much more glitz and polish to make it fresh and wonderful to play within again. As many of you should know, Skyrim with the right mods is a veritable foot-lover's paradise, a whole continent of lovely femme fatales' soles to ogle or even (literally) hunt down. There are even quite a few lovely NPCs that have captured our fancies.


Vilja is indeed... enchanting. Heheh.

Recently one of our longtime readers/friends and fellow foot-fans, OlgerthHeidern666 brought a cool mod to our attention. Olgerth is a fellow Skyrim fan and has quite a few awesome mods revealed, such as the 'barefoot' leggings for female characters in the game (sadly something I can't always use due to my choice of body replacement mods). His latest update to us is a Companion mod called Vilja in Skyrim. For those not well-versed in Elder Scroll modding (me included, actually), the character Vilja was also a companion mod, a customizable NPC ally, from the previous ES game, Oblivion. Well, modders have brought this fan favorite sidekick into the world of Skyrim, and she's apparently more interactive than ever.


Some of Vilja's ramblings are quite interesting for footfans in particular...

Vilja comes with thousands of lines of spoken dialogue, her own quests and questline, the ability to interact with the player more intimately (games and more in-depth actions... what were you thinking?) and in all respects seems to be a fully-realized A.I. character compared to all the other NPCs in the game. Best part is, you can outfit her pretty much as you want, and as you see in these pics (provided by Olgerth from his game), barefoot Vilja is a lovely sight.


A girl and her horse.

Of course, it should go without saying that this lovely lass is far more than just a lovely pair of legs to admire. Her character, personality and storyline should add greatly to the enjoyment and immersion in your Skyrim playthroughs. Whether you're a footfan or not, if you play Skyrim on PC and like companions riding along with you, having this talkative, headstrong young lady may be a wonderfully refreshing experience. Thanks to Olgerth for introducing us to this beauty from Solstheim!

Barefoot Beach Babes in Dead or Alive 5 Plus?

Hitomi, barefoot and NOT in her karate gi? My Gosh!

Last year's return of Dead or Alive 5 surely pleased a lot of its longtime fans... but as well sorely disappointed foot lovers. There were bikinis aplenty for the lovely DOA ladies, but ALL of them came with footwear. Apparently Team Ninja as a whole have no clue that feet are sexy- well, the ones who handle their Facebook page surely don't, as they seemed to be puzzled that a lot of people were asking for a Shoe Toggle option in the game. It even reached a point where someone set up a petition asking for it (which gathered at least the needed amount of 100 signatures). After that though, there hasn't been word or sign of them answering footfans' wishes... until now.


Finally, a DOA game where both fighting AND gravure fan service mix and match.

Judging from the trailer above, the upcoming Playstation Vita port of DOA5, titled Dead or Alive 5 Plus, will have some of the girls wearing outfits where they are barefoot. Hitomi the karate hottie, plus kunoichis Kasumi and Ayane are shown shoeless as they cavort on the new beach stage, 'Zack Island'.

Logically and hopefully, all the girls will have barefoot outfits or have a Shoe Toggle so they can kick off their bothersome sandals and boots and show off their perfect soles. It's something we footfans have been wishing for, and perhaps something great. Great enough to warrant purchasing a Vita? We'll see. DOA5 Plus is out this coming March. I'll keep my eyes on this.

Alva (Elder Scrolls V Skyrim PC)

Surely one of the most alluring faces (and feet) you'll meet in Skyrim...

It's been a while, but though I haven't been posting a ton of stuff from this awesome RPG, I actually have never really stopped playing Skyrim. It's just too cool a game with too sexy feet to leave for too long. Of course, that goes without saying that I'm talking about the divine PC version, with mods installed to turn the otherwise horrific, deformed bare feet of the vanilla version into luscious peds that would make any foot fan drool.
Anyways I focus yet again on another sexy NPC and femme fatale you'll encounter in the game- the seductive Alva. You'll meet this beauty in the town of Morthal, where she is involved in a quite messy and tragic affair that has you investigating for some dirty secrets. It eventually leads to you breaking into her home and, most probably putting an end to her since she's an evil vampire bent on enslaving the place. Oh well.



Even when I played the game on the PS3, Alva was already fetching without the aid of body and face mods to beautify the usually-weathered and wrinkled look of the default character models. But as you can see here, with mods like CBBE (with FemFeet) and Coverwomen (my face mod of choice), she is dangerously hot as the temptress that she should be. Of course, to view her barefoot you're gonna have to take her down (as you would most of the random babes you'll enounter) but then you also get to pose her as you wish- best I guess in her dark cellar of a lair, which comes with a convenient coffin. Hey, before you finished her off, she was already undead anyway.



Sadly I didn't have the Dead Thrall spell yet when I visited Morthal the first time, so I wasn't able to have Alva along for a trip this time, like I did on the PS3 game. But then again, I have these rather dramatic posed pics as a souvenir of some memorable undead vixen toes to dream in the darkness...
