Reach Multiplayer - Can we play as a female Spartan?

[Twilight_guy]

I can't imagine how much more immature idiotic squawking this will cause in X-box live. Good for the developers for adding a female character but I'm not really in the mood to find out the fan repercussions.

Yes. Yes you can.

Scroll down a bit, its there. You can be an actual female spartan instead of just having a female voice. So says almighty Bungie.

Well I've not played Halo 3, but are we talking Spartans like, THIS IS SPARTAAAAA!!!! spartans? I'm pretty sure they didn't allow women in the army.

No, in Halo there is a group of supersoldiers named Spartans after the original Greek warriors but not the same thing, in multiplayer you play as groups of these supersoldiers attempting to kill eachother. Just look up "Spartan" on Halopedia it should explain it to you.

I see what you did there, at least I didn't give you a full detailed description then I'd feel really stupid.

yes you can

Yeah, halo 3 already had the different voices, so with the female model, you can look and sound like a girl, even if you arent actually one. really though, its a nice option for all the lady gamers out there.
