The Bungie Weekly Update has given female Halo fans a call for feedback on having a selectable female voice as a multiplayer option.

Hey, ladies. Yeah, I’m talking to you, ladies. It has come to my attention that a significant chunk of our playership is female. I myself am constantly pooned and then humped by ladies. That is not sexy like it sounds, btw. It’s humiliating. Anyway, one of the things we’re looking at for Halo 3 multiplayer (Master Chief is all man) is adding a female voice to the Spartan character should you choose it as part of your custom character.

If we do it, it won’t be comical, stereotypical or insulting – we’ll pick a great, strong female actress who can pull off bloodcurdling death cries and rattles. And we’re not promising anything, we’re just trying to gauge interest. If you girls think it would be cool, then comment in the forums, spam me with PMs or start a petition on your own sites and forums. Then we’ll have to listen. If you think it’s pointless and patronizing and you’re happy just being a dude, then say so.

Can I just say that, as a guy, I think this would be a great idea. And if there are other options, I hope they also have an Elite voice. I want to be able to push a button and have my Elite chortle “Wort Wort Wort!” This is also why I choose the Cole Train as my Gears of War model. “Whoo!”
