Strong Female Characters in Video Games


I remember reading an article about the lack of female characters in video games a year or so ago so I counted all of my 200+ games and found that about half either featured a female lead, co-lead, or character creation that lets you choose your gender.  I posted a comment on the article with my findings and got responses like "those are either stereotypical females or 'men with boobs!'  We need female characters that are REAL!"  So I asked how they would make this character real and not fall into the above categories and never got a response...  This comic reminded me of that conversation.
