Microsoft has concluded a search for the worlds best looking female Halo fan by deciding on a South Londoner by the name of Amanda Johnstone. Hot or Not? It's up to you. But it's undeniable that Halo isn't only the world of glasses wearing geeks.

So, when you've got a new computer game to plug what do you? Easy, you trawl the UK to find UK's hottest female Halo fan.

And after a rather vague selection process which just might have involved wandering round a few modelling agencies, Xbox decided on 25-year-old Amanda Johnstone from South London, a girl who likes nothing more than 'being snuggled up in bed with her Xbox controller, playing Halo to help take her away from her daily stresses.' Halo duvet cover and pillow case set naturally.

At this point, we'd love to tell you (Miss World Style) about her charity work, measurements and star sign, but sadly we can only inform you that aside from walking round her house in a skimpy top and hot pants, Amanda runs her own events management company, hangs about the Halo Club night at The Cross, Kings Cross, London, sings karaoke and walks her pet Chihuahua 'Chiefy'. Come on, at least it's not quite as obvious as calling it Halo. Ok, maybe it is. Check out the bedroom too, packed with Halo goodies, almost as if it's been dressed for a photo shoot *cough*.

      The pic is stretched so it does give off that impression.

    Looks entirely fabricated to me, Since her whole room and herself is plastered with HALO WARS, Oh yeah, their upcoming game, they CAN'T be advertising that at all with a mildly atractive woman as eye candy... >_>

    Plus if she was a REAL halo fan i think she'd have memorbelia from the other 3 games and not one thats yet to be released

      It says something similar in the article. But for those who are just looking at the pics thinking "Oh Wow! She's a catch" please read the above disclaimer.

        I smell it too.

        Ironing a *bleep*ing Halo shirt. Really? Why don't they show her making a sandwich while they're at it? In a Halo apron. Oh shit, they did put her in a kitchen!

        World's Sexiest Halo Fan meets World's Most Sexist Video Game Advertisement. I demand equality. Where is the Sexiest Male Halo Fan?

        No not really.

        The only thing that crossed my mind is she must wear Halo Wars tank tops and black shorts 24-7 since she is ironing her Halo Wars tank top while wearing a different one.

          That photo is absolutely terrible. There was no attempt to disguise this at all.

          I'd be pretty insulted if I was this ad's target demographic... I mean, they're assuming there's people dumb enough to fall for this? It seems demeaning for both genders. Sad that this kind of thing really doesn't surprise me anymore.

          Never suggested you couldn't see through it Euphoric. I was simply stating the advertisement wasn't working. I'm not thinking about the sexy girl playing a game I care nothing about. I'm thinking about her limited wardrobe and lack of taste in decor. So the ad didn't accomplish the desired effect. In fact if anything it made me some what gay.

    Heh, yeah. Of course they'd have pictures of someone showing as much skin as they can without wearing a bikini (excluding the fact they could have shown the midriff). Sheesh, some people are so predictable when it comes to these things.

    In any case, I'm right there with Vacation up there.

    I'm not gonna lie, the way she's ironing that tank top which is identical to the one she's wearing is getting me pretty hot.

        They better not have given her the collector's edition with the new map pack that I'm sure she'd never use.

        And she probably threw the 360 and the Halo Wars away the moment she got it.

    I get the impression that she is a model just from the way she is looking at the camera. Oh ya, not to mention that she's quite hot.

    Just actually reading some more articles on this story, and looking at the pictures a bit closer, and I have to say this is the most embarrassingly obvious attempt at viral marketing that I've ever seen. It's almost a joke. Idiots must have done this campaign.

    No chick is going to have a wall of Halo posters, and would be ironing a Halo Wars shirt while wearing a Halo Wars shirt.

      Not very well, apparently. Half of the shirt's logo seems to have come off onto the iron.

      Don't iron over print tees, kids!
