Mass Effect games disagree with you
... most women in real life are in fact crappy in general ... Male characters aren't any better in both fiction and non fiction.
While this is some what true but the point is also somewhat lost in the fact that most women in real life are in fact crappy in general.
They get better with age but when was the last time you saw an attractive, educated, intelligent woman who was about more than celeberty gossip, parting, and talking shit of face book?
This thread made me think of this Avengers poster, where an artist redrew the poster with the male Avengers doing "female poses" and Black Widow doing a classic male pose.

hey um. I hate to break this to you, but that's a dude. Go look it up :")
Please tell me you didn't..nvm I don't wanna know.
This quote shows game makers are just catering to their audience, obviously. (And you should get out more!)
There is no straight or gay. If something is pretty, just stick your dick in it.
Skyrim isn't overly sexualized, either. Unless you count the mods...that's something else altogether.
Pyro is female? Man, that's hot.- Pyro...

I would however not recommend googling sexy pyro...
Valve games tend to have non-offensive female characters:
- Chell
- Alyx
- Zoey
- Rochelle
- Pyro...
Other games with non-terrible (i.e. overly sexualized) female leads: Dreamfall / The Longest Journey, Beyond Good and Evil, Borderlands
Mass Effect games disagree with you but I think you're right 99 percent of the time. When it comes to Japanese games , women are 99.9999 percent of the time portrayed as innocent Japanese school girls or something of the like. Sexism in Japan is incredibly high. So its not really surprising (even remotely so) that this continues to be the trend. Japan will have some of the greatest growing pains in this regard.
However its a male dominated industry , if more women got into development/publishing positions then they would have a greater say in its content. And the more women game and start to get into gaming in general the greater the odds of them seeking out career opportunities in game development.
But games are just exploiting what is being exploited nearly by every form media , sex sells and well at that. I'd love to see more games developed by women that give a damn about gaming. More originality and input is always a good thing.
I think Alyx Vance is the sexiest character to ever exist. Book, Comic, Videogame, Movie. I really do think she's my favorite female character.
Edit: I should say that second place, in my book, goes to Tali.

The new Tomb Raider appears to even be taking a step back from the classic look of Lara to a more realistic style.
