Back on the 14th of November, 2012, I wrote the following in my Black Ops 2 review:
"...I would like to take this opportunity to make [a] point that I feel needs to be made: Where are the women? I see enemies in front of me; they're all dudes. I see my allies around me; they're all dudes. I appreciate that the people who make these games don't want to show women being violently murdered, but there's a point where covering your ass becomes disrespectful to the women in uniform who do the exact same job as the men of the armed forces.
Have you noticed that all the helicopter and jet pilots in these games are women? This is a trend that goes back as far as Halo 1, if not further. It's because developers want to have female characters, but they don't want to put them on the ground, in harm's way. I call bullsh*t. This is something the industry needs to fix immediately."
And now, nearly a year later, we have this:

I don't believe for a second that someone at Infinity Ward read my post, but it seems that at least one of them was on the same wavelength as I was. You may now be in awe of my prescience.
