A) because it s a game where you shoot people/ things

you know why the devs for the game made the main character a girl? Because they knew that would just make guys want to buy it even more.


Even though this is about halo, just thought i'd throw this in.

A bit off.... I have a DVD depicting why they chose a female character. Sony shot the original idea off for a game, and it was almost like a Indiana Jones one... They needed some different than every other game. A game people would play until they're adults even. So they created a female character. And yes, just 'coz she's.....hot, yah, that counts too. Over the years they have made her (Lara Croft) look more realistic, though.
