    This is an interesting little vid I came across during lunch. The majority of the market are men, plus the developers are...well, mostly men lol. Some guys just dont like playing as a woman. *shrug*
    This particular gal doesn't seem to mention (she may in a later part) Samus Aran from Metroid, the first female protagonist in games, who I believe was also partially created by Shigeru Miyamoto. Samus, arguably one of the most iconic figures in games, is a pretty damn bad ass tough gal, right fellas? Same with Cammy, Chun Li, and most of all, sisters of the Adepta Sororitas...genetically modified female guardians, suited in power armor, who wouldn't think twice about purging your ass with a multi-melta in the name of The Emperor. I can understand where she's coming from, but...meh...I wouldn't play a game without some hotty in it to rescue ;)

    it's funny how the comments and like/dislike bar are disabled LOL!

    I think women in video games should be portrayed more like Femshep in Mass Effect. Total badass without being sexualized.

    Sexuality sells. Look at most stores nowadays, you will see more women working them than guys because girls bring guys and guys bring money. Same logic applies to games

    It's the main reason I am unemployed right now. More women are being hired for sex appeal

    yeah, sometimes the over skimpy outfits in a few games are just ridiculous. Like Ivy from Soul Caliber 4, it's almost embarrassing
