I picked up Fallout New Vegas (very good game, pick it up) and I noticed something very, very much awesome in this game.
In New Vegas, you can have one humaoin and one non-humanoid character at a time. Well, Arcade is one such companion. He's a funny, extremely intelligent, and very moral genius, doctor, scientist, philanthropist, and general do-gooder. He has one of the highest Intelligences out of any companion (he's the max at 10) and is very much a Good character. (He spends his life healing the sick and fighting for justice and his own expense often times.) He's charming, cool, competent, useful, deep, and likable. And he's gay. He's not wussy, but she's not stereotypically bear-ish. He's very much open of his sexuality, but not promiscous. He's not a novelty, he's not a joke, and he's not a stereotype. In fact, his endings are all (SPOILER)noble sacrifices at the expense of his own life. He's well-voiced by Zachary Levi and is a step forward from positive potrayls of gay people in the media.
