I do wonder if they put a fat woman, very skinny woman, or an unnattractive female in a video game would that affect the sales of a video game?
-
Its all about playing to the primary fanbase demographic. Video games, comic books, and action movies all do this because they know who's buying their products and what they want to see.
-
There's no main female characters in these games because they're too busy making food for the real men who worked on these games.

Ok, what about kat from halo reach, bayonetta(who uses that fact that shes a woman to her advantage a real femme fatale), jade from beyond good and evil, madison paige from heavy rain, the big sisters from bioshock 2, alma from the fear series, ashley, liara, tali, jack, samara, kasumi, kelly, and miranda from the mass effect games, or lightning from FF13? You fail sir/miss do more research.

@waddleg I think you broke his entire argument:)

Its called 'marketing'... Males buy more video games.
Your video is the equivilent of me bitching that there is bias in makeup commercials since there are few men in them. Oh yeah... Females buy more makeup.
-
What about Chun-Li? She doesn't have a skimpy outfit and is a fighting female. A number of other posters have put up various other female characters from video games that aren't degrading. There's also Jill Valentine from the Resident Evil series, who as far as I know almost always just shows up in a cop uniform.
And somebody also mentioned Mirror's Edge, too. If you're going to make a video like this, at least do your research so you don't seem one sided.

Samus from the Metriod is a good example of a non-stereotypical female character.
