I do not want her on my collectors edition..... I can't see Shep being anything other than a male. Sorry.

^ This. Replacing Mshep on the cover is like one of Laura's lakies being featured on her cover for Tomb Raider and expecting people who've seen the ads for TR in the past to pick it up. All it will do is confuses these people, " I thought TR was about a girl." Same with ME, " I thought ME had protagonist was a guy." She could be featured on the inside book but not on the main cover. I hope its a variant like comic books have buy cover A with Mshep's cool art or buy cover B with fshep's cool art.

You are misinformed. Both fem shep and male shep will be on the cover of the collector's edition. And unlike Tomb Raider, the Protagonist isn't static, and can be customized to fit the individual's desire.

Exactly. People who would go "I thought ME had a protagonist who was a guy" will learn a thing or two by seeing both possible protagonists. Better advertising for the game.

no they wont.
the regular edition still has MShep on the cover and the collectors case is in a N7 sleeve so unless your a long time fan or just a big spender you wont be seeing Femshep.... unless you watch her still work in progress trailer.

They why did you suggest they'd be confused by seeing femShep on the collector's cover? This is going nowhere fast.

Jeez, some people can be so...provincial. 

She's sharing the cover with male Shep, and it's only on the Collector's Edition. Anyone who buys the CE will be familiar with ME and know who FemShep is, the $80 price tag guarantees that. There will be no confusion. You can afford to give an inch. Get over it.

Seriously.... Bioware has portrayed Shepard as a Male from the beginning.... Up and changing that at the end is a kick in the nuts kinda. Why not save the female marketing for a new character in the ME universe....

So because one group is just used to getting shafted it is fine to continue?

And why Plato regarded democracy as corrupt and undesirable. But that's off-topic. There's no legitimate reason FemShep can't share the cover of the expensive and familiarity self-selecting Collector's Edition.

If anything, shepard looks like a light skinned peuto rican/ latino on the cover of ME2.

Wonder if a reworked game case appearance will mean a reworked in-game appearance?

I partially agree because I do not like the way the default female avatar looks.  She looks like a grade school teacher or a soccer mom who would have trouble carrying 30 pounds in one arm. She just looks silly and out of place. I've seen some believable modded versions, but the default is less than spectacular.  Listening to current fans may not be the wisest decision. Such a strategy may do more harm than good if they are looking to attract new customers.

My advice, for what it's worth, if you are going to market a female avatar, spice her up a bit. Give a mohawk and some biceps. Something.  Those hair and makeup model versions I typically see are kinda laughable.

That wouldnt work. Most of the people who play femshep are guys who want to watch "HAWT ALIENZ LEZBIAN SCHMEX"(oh yes they are. Dont fool yourself ppl) so if they made femshep all bulky and scarred they wouldnt get their fix.

Not true.

Having actually been apart of the femShep club and talked to them instead of making baseless assumptions, it seems to me that most femShep are just really happy to finally play a female main character that isn't an oversexualized boobfest. Hell, there seems to be a general assumption that anyone posting in that thread or in the chatroom is female unless obviously or proven otherwise.

I'm talking about a marketing femshep to women. Showing of a bit of the character creator and letting them know that in this game you can create a female protagonist. They, like many others, may make them look like super models, but for a video trailer she need to look the part.  She shouldn't look like a 90 pound waitress at Denny's donning heavy armor or carrying a reverent assault rifle. If they are marketing femshep to attract male players they need to fire their marketing team. Action games like Call of Duty did not get where they are because of pixel booty. And the femshep body model is not particularly sexualized anyway.

I assure you, no guy is playing as a female because they enjoy staring at her pixels for 50+ hours. That is what internet porn is for.  I never quite understood the need for guys to make up such contrived statements. As if they are less manly if they don't sexualize their reasoning. Maybe they really don't like Mark Meer's voice, or his default face and suck at the character creator. Or maybe they simply like the idea of a woman kicking ass. But it certainly isn't for the view. And if it is they have some serious issues.

For someone who supports manly Shepard, you sure let one journalist's opinion bother you.

It's about time, this news makes me more interested in buying the CE edition. Plus the little Normandy prop sounds nice, though a model of the Normandy to place on my desk would have been better, but oh well.

Hopefully they'll do a good job with the female Shepard, if I could take a picture of my Reina Shepard in ME1 and 2 I would.

Nah. I'm a femShep fan and I'd just ignore as yet another opinion on the internet I disagree with.
