Comment on Lara Croft Has Company: More Female Heroes Appear in Big-Budget Games

Comments

Surprised they don't mention Life is Strange or Heavy Rain in their examples of female protagonists. They pushed that angle quite a bit when they were released. I also liked Remember Me from Capcom quite a bit, even though it wasn't a commercial success.

Personally I usually prefer playing female characters, even though I'm a guy. Currently rockin' a female character in Sunset Overdrive right now. I was always a fan of the novelty (to me) and the different approach female characters often had to the gameplay (like lightning-fast kicks with Chun Li in Street Fighter II, for example).
