As a female gamer - before I buy a game - I'd like to know that the game creators took time & consideration for their female fans. What was so amAzing about Halo; was not only was there stylish armor which complimented the female figure, but there was also a variety of color choices and other armor features. So far, I have seen pix which portray some female attributes of the different game characters. What I'm wondering is, what sets the female characters apart from the male characters? Has Bungie promoted the game to female gamers? Are the female characters a realistic embodiment of a human female or are they alien in nature? Would females around the globe recognize this game, as a game girls play?
