How to Make Gears of War 2 Girlfriend-Friendly

When asked by Wired how Gears of War 2 is being made more girlfriend-friendly, design director Cliff Bleszinski said:

You do jump-in, jump-out co-op. You have configurable difficulty settings for the other player. You have very cool and bad-ass main characters that have a very human side. And you make sure that the female characters in your game don't have ginormous tits and aren't bad stereotypes.

As for the few female characters in the game:

I've always made sure, working with the art department, that Anya is strong-willed but also very mother-like to the squad. She has a very modest chest and doesn't look like some sort of heavy metal movie fantasy.
