How can we petition Epic to put a -cool, strong- female COG in the next Gears of War?
Anya is totally lame. And female fighter pilots ... so yesterday. We need to bust up the combat exclusion in Gears of War and get a woman who kicks @ss for real! Just because the U.S. military is discriminatory (at the moment, hopefully it will change SOON!) doesn't mean our in-game militaries - especially seemingly futuristic ones - have to be!

- I know what your saying, but I think (I may be wrong) GoW is designed for the male gamer. I say that because of the all male cast, gore, weapons and language. I think its fair to say that (for the most part) males typically like those things more than females. I think its great that you play and I encourage other females to play, but right now the game market is heavily dominated by males. It's a fact that more males play games than females. Although, females are playing games more today than ever before. Someday, games will be played evenly by both, but the producers of video games make these games for their highest consumers, males. If I reverse this, it would be like me petitioning coach to make more man bags. It wouldn't make much business sense for coach to make more man bags because the market cannot sustain it. I think it would be neat to see a female in the game (there is the locust queen), but a female COG. However, I personally don't like the idea of females being shot, killed, chainsawed or blown up by men (seems wrong).
