I'm a Norwegian girl/geek from the country side. I look Norwegian (blonde, blue eyes, pale skin), but I don't care about or excel at winter sports and I have zero tolerance for low temperatures ^^; I do binge drink during weekends, but I prefer beer and wine to moonshine, I avoid eye contact...

The Last of Us, definitely! And Among the Sleep, that indie horror game the Jimquisition did an episode on where you play as a little kid. It looks awesome :D Dead Space 3, Tomb Raider and Bioshock Infinite are already out, so... but I was really looking forward to those as well.

That depends a little, I think. I've always interpreted the friendzone as something that happens when you're kind of interested in someone, you start hanging out and you try to not make them think of you as only a friend, because that's how you get stuck there. And that's never happened to me...

I pretty much agree with what people are saying here. I think players generally want at least an illusion of choice, and we definitely want to explore the game world at our own pace for the most part. FF13 was very linear, but it might not have been such a big issue if it hadn't been an FF-game...

Uncharted. Uncharted 3 had an ending that felt very conclusive and I can't imagine how they would make a 4th without ruining it or making it feel dragged out. I felt the same way about Dead Space 2, but surprisingly I actually really enjyed Dead Space 3 as well! I was satisified at the end of...

You must read Joe Abercrombie! Seriously, all of you, you are going to love his books. His best work, if you ask me, is "Best Served Cold" ~~ but that novel makes a bigger impact if you've already read his fantastic trilogy, "The Blade Itself". I can not recommend him enough ;) Also, two of...

That's a really interesting question, because all the female gamers I have ever met (myself included) care a great deal about story and characters (which is probably why we tend to have either a Zelda or a Final Fantasy topping our lists). Personally it makes no difference to me, I never...

I don't think we are, no. I'm a huge fan of Bioware as well as Visceral (the team behind Dead Space), but there is no denying that EA's business model is very harmful to the - dare I even say 'our' - business! After having played Dead Space 3 now for a while and then reading about how they're...

Thank God I'm not the only one! I've really tried with Zelda, but I just can't seem to get into any of them. I guess it would've helped if I'd played them as a child, maybe? I don't care about the characters much, the stories never quite grip me, the music and graphics aren't very good... Nope...

You, Sir, are a hero and I applaud this with all my heart! I hope everybody reads this ^^; Confidence is actually a very good word here, as it kind of seems to me like the terms 'asshole' and 'douchebags' are being used very broadly to refer to all the guys who have the guts to chat us up...

Omg, I couldn't agree more -_-' I mean, I thought the first one was kinda crappy, but AvP requiem just took shittiness to a whole new level. Hate, hate, hate!

This looks really interesting! It's for Mac and PC, far as I've heard. My recent Amnesia-trauma fresh in memory I dare say I won't be playing this alone by myself, though ^^;

Yes this bothers me a lot! I used to work part-time in a bookshop for some years and this happens very often. It's just shocking to find this behavious when books, of all things, are concerned. Parents want their kids to read, just not something that might expose them to violence or sex. It's...

I feel very well and equally treated as a girl gamer! So thank you guys :) However, right now LoL is my life and if the subject of gender pops up for some reason, I feel people are much nicer to me and more forgiving once they discover I'm female. They also add me to their friends list a lot...
