I recommend you Dragon´s Crown

First of all, let's separate the gameplay for the graphics. Often in these discussions regarding titillating graphics in video games, there's a slant towards the suggestion that people are playing the game solely for these graphics. If you bring the conversation to that, you're attacking everyone who enjoys the gameplay and they'll fight back.

You can enjoy the game but find the graphics over-the-top.
You can also think the game is crap but "enjoy" the graphics.

But in any case, let's try to separate the two here. We're not debating if the game itself is poor, we're just talking about the graphics. I'll put this out here:

Obviously, Diablo II fans are just in it for the T&A. :p And that Sorceress rocking the bare midriff? I mean, come on. But seriously, there was quite a bit of talk about Diablo II's female characters at the time as well, and those are nothing compared to what's in Dragon's Crown. There's way too many pictures of the D2 Amazon using a bow and it would actually be very difficult to accurately fire a bow with...mammaries of that size.

That said, I used to subscribe to that belief that if a game hypersexualizes its women AND its men equally, it makes it okay. But honestly, that's a flimsy argument. Studies have shown time and time again* that men are visually stimulated moreso than women. It's not that women aren't necessarily interested in seeing gigantically overstrong men with bulging muscles - many (most?) are. But in general*, men get more out of seeing hypersexualized women than women get out of seeing hypersexualized men.

In Dragon's Crown, you can make the argument that the man is super-exaggerated physically, sure. He's also fully armored to the brim. He's not sporting a shirtless exaggerated Matthew Mcconaughey look, which would be more roughly equivalent gender-wise to what the Sorceress in the game is drawn as.

*citations needed, but I'm lazy
