It's great that developers see the financial potential of targeting the other half of the population and I believe the gaming community will welcome the influx of female gamers with open arms.
Unfortunately we have Anita Sarkeesian with her fallacious arguments, the recent Donglegate scandal and people like the one in the video below.
An egalitarian society doesn't seem to be in the near future.
Deal with it? Like kneel next to the router and pray?
Or is it a case of "oh, my internet cuts out, but I can fix it by pushing my network cable in deeper. Nah, I'll deal with it later..."
Or like a dictatorship says half of the population must go work in a salt mine, deal with it.
Sure there are girls working in coal mines too:
"Even more damaging is the perspective of the female miners to the mass. Why is she not taken seriously. Does this hurt the industry? I ask how far is too far?"
A great any game would be great. Tautology.
Better than spending a billion dollars on rectifying faulty consoles.
Because at kickstarter you get your money for nothing and your chicks for free.
If you want a Wii, just get a newish model second hand for a dime. It's easy to haggle with little children and moms.
Wow, she has more sense than most gaming "journalists".
There are more 360's and PS3's than PS4's, therefore Rockstar will make more money.
So long as there is lesbosex all around, then shoot.
One thing I don't understand, people claim it's a floating head, but you can clearly see the microphone at the collar of the shirt. Such as the one Geoff is wearing.
Can someone give me a link with the evidence that this is CG?
Now PS3 gamers can also experience the "joy" of act 3 farming.
I agree, but let me rephrase.
I believe it will it will be more successful if advertised as:
Primarily a cheap Android PC.
Secondarily a media center.
Lastly for gaming.
I think it will be more successful if was firstly as a cheap Android PC, secondly as a media player and lastly for gaming.
It's a question of what it can do well potentially and with what it can compete with.
Awesome list, so much fond memories. Like endless bot sniping on Facing Worlds, buggy races on Blood Gulch, cranking away sentries on Gold Rush and getting railgunned to bits on The Longest Yard. Pretty sentimental...

They do it, because they can. It's not like they are severely punished by the law or have to make amends.
Look at Skyrim and the faulty Xbox360 or the launch backwards compatible PS3's.
My fave is the old Lara Croft, people have some strange idea about her, but here are the facts:
She is strong and independent, never relying on anyone but herself for her success. She is not intimidated by anyone and is very goal orientated. Anyone who gets in her way will get a fist or a bullet. She makes the men around her seem inept and lazy. She is attractive, but she's never plays the victim, always the agent.
Here are points I dislike in female pr...
The same rubbish and things that'll make your character unique, although you are playing mass produced tripe.
Like getting an extra piece of cheese on your bigmac.
