The internet man in me half agrees with both sides. While it is her opinion on what she thinks of the game, her feelings on whether the "misogyny" is real and a detriment to the game is more of a political belief, and doesn't really belong in a review. Again, it is HER review, but this is a...

I love GTA. I was a little disappointed in GTA 4, the car handling was pretty awful, and while the city had an immense amount of detail there wasn't much you could do in it, it was a huge technological leap that set the bar high for practically all of gaming. Most games today can't even get to...

I smell imminent banning from this thread. Though we can always count on there being a 14 page thread that isn't DIRECTLY addressing feminism or women in gaming, and the last 7 pages are the same 4 people very angrily shouting at each other. Oh yeah, and quote walls. Everywhere.

Humans are warlike, I know, but how warlike are we? Going by what we have on Earth, while it did evolve with us, most animals are fairly violent in some way, contest for mating, hunting, bugs have actual wars. If all life comes from the same basic formula: O2, Heat, Carbon, then I imagine...

It should come as no surprise to anybody here that GTAV is going to be a huge game this fall. Its around the corner, looks phenomenal, and me and everybody I know is ultra-excited for it. Its the most expensive game ever made (setting the record for the second time), and they've already made...

I suck at most videogames, though I still usually enjoy playing them. For FPSes, I cannot for my life get a positive k/d ratio, RTSes, I never want to expand my bases, I'm downright terrible at platformers, hell, even in single player I usually only get by by exploiting cheap tactics. I...

YouTube is always broken in some way. New features rarely work for me, redesigns just ruin everything, and Google's insistence that I combine my account with god knows what is very irritating. Hence, I've gravitated away from being involved in the community, or even using my account.

The mods can be a little overzealous, obviously they can't be right 100% of the time, they're only human. Maybe they had a bad day, or maybe they just had a really good day and your post calling the president of Somalia a disgusting piece of worthless trash can slide. If you don't wanna get...

Well, not really gaming, but I enjoy changing desktop icons' names all to the wrong things and messing with all the pictures. It's hilarious. For gaming, Pokemon in gen 3 had some interesting answers you could make to interviewers. One time it made a whole town full of people talk about how...

It IS sexist, and I believe that all soldiers, male or female should have to adhere to the same standards. That obviously includes shaving your head. Of course, considering that women can get into the military with lower physical abilities, it's not the issue the military should be focusing...

I always make a pretty boring, average height/weight 20-year old guy or girl. Anything else feels weird to play as, and I usually hate them by midgame. In RPGs, my first character must be a human swordfighter/knight/melee person. I'm boring like that.

The problem isn't that big-breasted women exist in videogames, it's that they are a disproportionately large group compared to average-breasted women. And they often dress like whores for cheap sex appeal that doesn't really mean anything. If it's parody, fine. If it's logical (for whatever...

Absolutely not. Just because she was victimized doesn't mean she can get away with doing whatever she wants, but she perhaps deserves the tiniest bit of slack? This is the first time I've ever seen any thread about her making any kind of mistake. No, it doesn't mean she's off the hook, but...

Let's completely ignore the fact that Anita has been harassed through the internet for months now, has had death threats, rape threats, assault/battery threats, and probably everything else a sick mind could possibly think of. Her posting of a fanfic that she herself says is "surreal and...

I've always had the idea that if we were ever to find aliens, they would be "alien" to us. Everything they are/did/thought wouldn't make much if any sense to us. They might be made of gas, or not ever have to eat, and be fundamentally different from the stuff on Earth. Assuming they are...
