| Jumpin said: You can't see Samus 99% of the time in the prime games. I could never help but to feel the experience is cheapened by not having the game in third person. Also, female characters who are more or less male characters with masculine traits, but with female parts - only seems like they were made to target teenaged male gamers who are insecure about playing female characters. |
There is nothing male or female about Samus in her suit. That's the beauty of the character. When given a faceless or voiceless hero in video games, we assume they are male because in video games masculinity is the default state of being. Samus turns that on its head while maintaining immersion for players.
