That's because you're male. ^_^
I expect another DOA in the future.
sex sells

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Nice 
But seriously though, can you give me an example?

Until it is proven that the way women are portrayed in video games has a negative effect on sales then dont expect changes
PS3, WII and 360 all great systems depends on what type of console player you are.
Currently playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, Fallout 3, Halo ODST and Dragon Age Origins is next game

sorry but that is bullshit

Yes, it is.
I just think human male sexuality is easier to understand and market.
Big boobs? Good
Little clothing? Good
Stupidity? Excellent
Now what about women? It`s just a mess that no one understands. Probably because it tends to change from one to another.
Big boobs? Is that good? Who the f*** knows!
Stupidity? Is that good? Again, who the f*** knows!
Little clothing? Well, not a lot of women watch wrestling matches so again, who knows?

In the long run, sex sells.
THQ hired Tera Patrick for promoting Saints Row 2, and who's shitting on their parade? And as it's been stated before in this thread, it's not like we haven't seen the "ideal" masculine male with huge pecs and biceps punching the crap out of everything that stands in his way.
Videogames are fantasy, fiction. Unless you're a World War II game, in which case you don't see your scantily clad ladies nor humongous steroid dudes.
It's just gaming. There's worse crap going on in movies and film. I had a rant about games and sex during a recent show, about Grace Kim (former Activision PR Lead) posing in PlayBoy. Sex, sexy, sensuality, lust nudity, it's all in games and used to tell stories. It's normal. The thing I hate is when people use games to sell the sex. As in this recent photoshoot.
People don't really care about Grace Kim, don't get me wrong she is beautiful and I'm sure she's a great soul. Plaster her on the cover of PlayBoy and people shrug their shoulders. Label her as the PR lead of a hot videogame company and a well known videogame, and you instantly have someone's attention, it got mine.
Like I said with Tera Patrick, booth babes, hell my site might even have our own "sexy model" soon, are all sex symbols to grab attention for a game. But that's not what the game is about. So my only issue is using/exploiting a game to sell the sex.

Sex sells, it's as simple as that. If I see a game where a hot girl appears it attracts my vision. I'm pretty sure that if the girl from Beyond Good & Evil was a lot hotter the game would have sold a lot more...
Why not it makes money keep them coming.
