* In the recent ''[[Tomb Raider]]'' games, nearly every relationship Lara has with a female foe could qualify. The [[Fan-Preferred Couple|most prominent pairing]] within the fanbase seems to be Lara and her [[Evil Twin|Doppelgänger]], with Lara and [[Rival Turned Evil|Amanda]] following close behind.
** After [[Enemy Mine|Amanda helps Lara save the world]], she gives up on [[Avenging the Villain|avenging James Rutland]] and [[Hide Your Lesbians|saves Lara's life by holding her hand.]]
Line 40 ⟶ 41:
*** Actually [[Justified Trope]] in that Kula was genetically engineered to be a failsafe should K' ever defect (hence her [[Code Name]], [[Meaningful Name|the Anti-K']]). However, even in ''2000'', Kula showed no true mixture of enmity and infatuation towards K'.
* In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]. Brawl'', [[The Glomp]] administered by {{spoiler|King Dedede onto Kirby}}.
** Don't forget [https://web.archive.org/web/20121001085425/http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/snake/snake_070921c-l.jpg a certain picture] from the official site. There was a fanfiction for this mere hours of the picture hitting the internet.
*** Considering that both of [[Metal Gear|those]] [[Fire Emblem Tellius|guys]] are [[Broken Base|semi-sorta-questionably-maybe]] [[Yaoi Guys|canonically not straight,]] it was probably inevitable.
* In ''[[Jak and Daxter|Jak II]]'', Erol takes an unhealthy interest in torturing Jak for two years straight and then becomes [[Stalker with a Crush|even more obsessed]] when he escapes.
Line 68 ⟶ 69:
* ''[[Star Fox (series)|Star FOX]]: [[Star Fox Command|Command]]'': There's more to Wolf O'Donnell on why he's obsessed in taking Fox down... seriously. Heck, some of his lines are rather awkward ("I'm hot and cranky, and your orders are annoying, but I'll do them anyway!"), suggesting his silliness when confronted by Fox face-to-face.
** In ''[[Star Fox Assault]]'', Wolf did have that "You're mine!" fluffy moments, which are quite accurate to the Japanese translations of the game.
* ''[[Guilty Gear]]'' has so many sets of bitterly opposed rivals that the character selection screen is actually organized around them. (No, really. [https://web.archive.org/web/20100127085053/http://www.dustloop.com/data/ac/select.html in this arrangement], every character except the entire top row and Chipp and Potemkin on the second-from-bottom row have a strong connection to whoever is directly opposite them, usually either blatant idolizing fanboy/fangirlism or bitter and hateful rivalry. With this many Foe Yay pairings hinted at in the game itself, ''[[Guilty Gear]]'' shippers have plenty of material to work with, though Ky Kiske/Sol Badguy is the clear favorite.
** That is to say nothing between the weird hybrid of Foe Yay and straight up [[Ho Yay]] between Venom and Eddie/Zato-1. Given the fact that Venom is more or less [[Invisible to Gaydar|canon gay]] and screams Zato's name when he loses sometimes...
** In a non Foe Yay sense, everybody except [[Fish Out of Temporal Water|Order-Sol]] has an important relationship with the person(s) across from them on that row. Examples: Bridget (of [[Dropped a Bridget On Him]] fame) works for [[Chinese Girl|Jam]], Chipp and Pot are friends (Potemkin is helping Chipp become President of America), and A.B.A. ends up holding Robo-Ky's head at the end of one of their shared endings.
Line 87 ⟶ 88:
** In ''[[Tales of Hearts]]'', Chlorseraph seems to be motivated mainly by the desire to "free" Kunzite from his obligation to his mistress (by killing her), so that Kunzite will pay attention to him instead. He even calls him "my Kunzite" at one point. And then there's what he says after he is ordered to pursue the party:
{{quote|'''Chlorseraph:''' I'll do it, but not for you, it's so I can make Kunzite mine.}}
* ''[[Knights of the Old Republic|KOTOR II]]'' features an interesting and unsubtle moment really close to the end, for the female [[
** {{spoiler|Wasn't that because the two had a parent-child-like bond for most of the game though (albiet one barely above the level of dysfunction)? Unless you're implying a wierd [[Parental Incest]]...}}
** Atris also seems to have a thing for the Exile. {{spoiler|And when you confront and defeat her, she pretty much admits it openly, as well as her shame that she wasn't strong enough to go off to war with him/her}}. Really, the Exile gets a whole lot of this.
Line 150 ⟶ 151:
** Interestingly enough, in the [[Bonus Dungeon]], you will fight an [[Alternate Universe]] version of Fayt and whomever is highest in his [[Relationship Values]] is highest with. If the values aren't high enough for anybody; he's with Luther as a Mindslave.
* Oh Come on. [[Space Channel 5|Ulala and Purge?]] How can those two NOT be a couple?
* While everyone in ''[[BlazBlue]]'' is out to get Ragna the Bloodedge for the ridiculously high bounty he has on his head, Jin Kisaragi, his brother, takes an especially perverse interest in wanting to kill him. This is [[Playing with a Trope|played with]] in the "Teach Me, Miss Litchi" [[Omake]] skits, where Jin [[
** There's also [[
* [[By-The-Book Cop|Norman Jayden]] and [[Rabid Cop|Carter Blake]] from ''[[Heavy Rain]]'' are constantly at each other's throats for a vast majority of the game. The latter has a bad habit of getting incredibly close to the former's face during this verbal spars...
* In ''[[Condemned]]'', there's Serial Killer X and Ethan Thomas. SKX got so obsessed with Ethan that he constantly monitored the other serial killers Ethan goes after so ''he'' can kill them first. The [[Foe Yay]] between them becomes ''much'' more blatant in the sequel ''Bloodshot'', where SKX actually ''rescues'' Ethan, gets close to him and holds a knife to his throat, whispering to him, "Yes.. I look forward to cutting you open... learn your little secret..." And then there's how he told Ethan, "Do you think of me whenever you look at your hand? I think of you every time I look in the mirror..."
Line 161 ⟶ 162:
** There's also Tina and Jamie, from Magical Melody, which can be seen as the default couple. Rick and Kai, Back To Nature/Friends of Mineral Town/More Friends of Mineral Town wise.
* In ''[[Q*bert]]'', Coily follows Q*Bert ''everywhere'' - even off the edge of the pyramid to certain death.
* One-sided in ''[[Zone of the Enders]]: The 2nd Runner'', where in the Japanese version, Nohman very early on tells Dingo "I love you". {{spoiler|A bit of [[
* ''[[Soul Series|Soulcalibur]]'' has some of this. Certainly helped by the characters constantly grabbing each other. Special mention goes to Cassandra's Critical Finish move, which involves stomping her ass on her opponent's head while asking if he "likes this kind of stuff?"
** That's nothing. Tira's Critical Finish has her [[Forceful Kiss|forcefully]] suck out her opponent's soul with a [[Kiss of Death]].
** The Chronicles of The Sword campaign has Luna, who ''obsesses'' over fighting the player until {{spoiler|[[Defeat Means Playable|joining you]] near the end}}.
** Nightmare (once he becomes Siegfried's [[Enemy Without]]) [[Alternate Character Interpretation|has been interpreted in some circles]] as being [[
** And that's nothing compared to the hostility between Soul Edge and Soul Calibur ''themselves''. Imagine if [[The Bible|Eve was created from Adam]] for the sole purpose of ''destroying him''. Now imagine them clashing with each other numerous times throughout history, each wanting the other's blood ''badly'' and their powers continually growing and waning in unison in order to [[Balance Between Good and Evil|maintain balance]]. That sounds strange enough as is, but that's excluding the fact that [[Fusion Dance|Soul Edge needs Soul Calibur in order to become complete]], Soul Calibur herself [[Enemy Without|being created from purified shards of her brother]]. That's right; it's a [[Sibling Rivalry]] that ends in a weapons equivalent of ''[[Brother-Sister Incest|hatesex]]''.
* ''[[The Witcher]]'' has a few examples, and considering Geralt's general [[The Pornomancer|pornomancy]], these easily veer into [[Ho Yay]] and/or [[No Yay]].
Line 197 ⟶ 198:
* In ''[[Devil Survivor]]'', if you do end up fighting Loki, he is perfectly happy to attack you... after describing how to get through most of the game... and if Yuzu's the first one to attack him, he has this little bit of dialogue:
{{quote|"You think you're pretty hot, don't you? I don't care about you! My love is for [[Hello, Insert Name Here|[Protagonist]]]!}}
* Seen in ''[[Crash Bandicoot]]: Twinsanity'' between Crash himself and the villain, N.Cortex: [https://web.archive.org/web/20101225060315/http://cortexcrashfluff.deviantart.com/art/Crash-and-Cortex-s-Wedding-40996537
* There's a ''very'' subtle bit of [[Les Yay]] between Chris and Lucia toward the beginning of ''[[Suikoden III]]''. Granted, it's fairly brief, but it's still there if you have your [[Yuri Fan|yuri goggles]] turned up high enough.
** Chris and [[Fiery Redhead|Lily.]] Nuff said.
Line 221 ⟶ 222:
* In ''[[Amnesia: The Dark Descent]]'' there is more than a little foe yay between the main character Daniel and the antagonist Alexander and it's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZOogj5mZsw not just because they're the only two characters...] (go to about 3:00)
