Someone swapped the models in Arkham Asylum so that Batman and Catwoman were inverted.
I like to dismiss games like Arkham Asylum as “bad art” (sometimes still, “fun game”) but it’s interesting how differently the characters are represented. Embarrassingly bad, really.

Someone did the same thing a few years back with Revolver Ocelot and an egregious, mostly-naked female cipher called Quiet in one of the Metal Gear games.

Aaaaah, that was the Metal Gear game at which I stopped playing Hideo Kojima games. Not because of the egregiousness, but because of the over-exposition and general stupid hyper-concern with pointless detail.
I’ll have to look that up, it sounds like more fun than the entire game.
(I couldn’t tell what was more egregious about the quiet – that she was naked all the time, or that she was apparently Kojima’s ideal woman: silent. It was a bit obvious but I suppose it thrilled his incel fan-base.)
