Nice icon selection. Images like that push women away.

Why should there be more females? It should be the best person for the job, not based on your sex. I want to play games made by someone who has talent, therefore my experience playing will be better.

what happened to Jade anyway ?

if they keep putting naked women playing video games, our opinions will not change about women! that is that they are s@x objects!!

why cant they put a decent woman playing a game? does ur their moms and sisters wear underwear when playing video games?

pure propaganda! and people just keep falling for it!

and i wouldnt be surprised if any women dont want to work in the gaming industry if all the images these developers have on women are naked and stupid girls playing! it shows in their games too! how they make the women with unrealistic size of boobs and overall looks appear!!

if i was a woman, i would never work with such freaks!

Yea I was thinking of her but I didn't know her name but I think Uncharted is a breath of fresh air from most of the games we have and she is the reason behind.

Any project attached to Amy Hennig is awesome. I've been a fan of hers since LoK.

Yeah the icon selection was a bit racy, but we do need more women developing games(They tell better stories).

Super-Brad5715d ago

My Game Development class is only male, it did have a female when it first started but she left because of private matters.
But surprisingly there was more females at TGS when I went this year than I expected.

4pocalyps35715d ago

My Games Design class has quite a few females in it. I'm actually surprised by the amount it has, I was expecting a cockfest. But they're all pretty cool.

I think the reason there isn't many is because well its kinda how people percieve the industry as the boys industry and only boys play games and people are just stuck with that mentality so they don't grow up wanting to make games as much as guys do. That's what I think anyway.

It shouldnt be based on gender, if they are good enough for the job, they should get it. Same goes for males, if they arnt doing the job they need to do, can them

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing30d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9230d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit30d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing30d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9230d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
