'Duh, when was the last time you saw a game with a black woman on the cover, any woman at all is pretty rare. '

Like two weeks ago

Like I said. Gamers/consumers aren't the ones who care about this stuff. It's marketing/"suits" who's job it is to take the risk out of anything that object to anything.

The funny thing is a large portion of the gaming community I'm pretty sure is black/latino/asian and most of the white audience is cool with anyone on the cover. Just make a good freaking game.

"I was going to buy that game, but this one has a white person on the cover so I'll buy this one" .... said no gamer ever, and if there was one he/she is just an asshole that's a tiny, tiny, tiny minority.

This goes both ways - plenty of people are assholes who say that they'll support a game simply because the character is a minority.
