The fact that she is over sexualised is a piss take back at the industry at large on how they portray women in games. I loved her sense of humour and the fact she was voice by an amazing British actress Helena Taylor. Also to let you know her concept and design where done by a woman who worked for Platinum Games who in my view has set the bar at a very high level on what a female protagonist should be in a game.

I’ve put about 67+ hours into the game have not lost any love for it and have found myself replaying bits over and over again to try to get the highest rating on each section. The game was also the one that got me to get a 360.

She is quiet frankly the sort of personality I admire in a woman head strong and bloody hot as well and it was her personality that made me fall in love with her most of all a lot could be learned from this game about how to make a woman’s character realistic.

And yeah the story makes no sense but hell who cares she knows how to kick the crap out of heaven’s little helpers as Rodin called them at one point.

We need more female leads like this.
