I don't know why advertisers and game developers think female gamers are still such a rarity, and that they can't possibly enjoy more traditional games so they need stuff Yoga Trainer and Wii Fit and Brain Age. Or for younger girls baby games and hannah montana sing alongs and Bratz shit. When I was a little girl I was playing the likes of Super Mario and Mortal Kombat. I would have turned my nose up at the Imagine series even then. I’m a woman and I’ve been gaming since I was about seven.

(shotgun zombies good idea, MLG bad idea) I think Halo is a great gateway game to attract girls and non-gamers in general, as long as you’re playing with people that have the right attitude and on a gametype/map that focuses on simple and fun.
