Women characters in Video games

 
This is a picture of a women character from a popular video game. It is obviously very revealing and thats what appeals to most consumers. It is obvious "sex sells", that being said the illustrator took that into account when building this character. You see she has very large breasts, heavy make-up and revealing clothing. It is speaking that most consumers may be men and this will appeal to them. The women usually do not act as the hero or the most muscular fighter, but as the sex symbol to lure consumers in.

  1. I agree this kind of "propaganda" is being directed at the opposite sex. I completely agree with you on that "sex sells" and the gaming industry knows this so they take advantage of it by putting it in the games.
