It's far from the first time an article has had substantial cleavage across the banner. (Lisa Foiles is showing off pretty nicely, if no one has noticed)Futurenerd said:
Anyways, let's not get hyperbolic here. I don't expect to click on anything here with the guarantee that it is all 'kid friendly'. But I don't want to click on something that might be flashing pictures of a naked man's groin at me without at least a warning.
Jim is a disgusting human being. He doesn't deserve a spotlight.
Fire him.

Just ask your husband for permission before using the computer next time.
People like you *revel* in sexism, so sure. I'm just giving you what all attention-seeking little bitches crave.
You're the embarrassment. To your gender, your species, and all feminazi sluts like yourself."[/blockquote]
Jim couldn't be the sterotype of an angry virgin, striking out at women and blaming them for his loneliness, any more perfectly (and disgustingly) if he tried.
Get rid of him/it.
Fire him.

Why does he act like it's such a retarded idea for men to be sexualized? He spends the first half of the video bitching about how people are over-sensitive about sexualized females, then spends the second half trying to make the very notion of male-oriented fanservice seem absurd. Does anybody else notice how backwards this thinking is?
Also, considering your raison d'etre seems to be getting people riled up (mission accomplished on my part), you may want to consider this as a new theme song:

Hmm. I think this Jim sterling fellow could actually work in the escapist. I mean really. Are we not just a giant den of overly opinionated video game dudes and dudettes here? Personally if a guy can get in front of a camera and make an okay enough script where he nails something with his wit and sardonic attitude he's just the right man for the escapist community.
Well well, looks like he actually took some advice from the comments. ...A frightening thought, but it was an improvement.
Got through the entire episode this time. (Well ok, about 4/5ths of it before getting bored.) Still think the accent is fake.

*yaaaaaaaaawn* Being unentertaining is the joke. Post-modernism and all that. Got it.CurtDogg said:
Riled up? Most people here seem to be utterly bored by him.SideburnsPuppy said:
Never stated that fact. Sterling's production is just the worst of an already amateur set. I never even made an assumptive association.WilliamRLBaker said:
If you read deeper into ANY of those quotes on the blog, you can see they were mostly jokes (in poor taste, perhaps). If you read any deeper into the "Daphny 'controversy,'" you can argue that the woman he was bickering with was equally to blame, alluding to him only being able to get sex from hookers and having a small penis. In fact, the origin of the argument is unclear and I would hazard to guess that Jim was trolling her hard (his MO) and she was taking the bait. If you read Anna (I'm assuming she's the writer of gomakemeasandwich) other posts, she lambastes Reiq for being a sexist, without realizing that Reiq is a pornographic artist. One doesn't get far into the porn business drawing pictures of flat chested women.loodmoney said:
Regardless of how crude you think Jim Sterling is, he's certainly more qualified to talk about sexism that the writer of the blog, who's quick to turn any slightest hint of perceived "sexism" into a shitstorm and throws around the word "sexist" like Fox News throws around the name "Hitler." She finds misogyny in everything. I've said it before and I'll say it again: If everything's misogynistic, nothing is misogynistic.
Also, I find it strange that objectification in women in video games is stirs passionate debate, but the objectification of men in video-games is a nonissue. Not every man is ripped like Chris Redfield or Kratos...
What are you talking about? He made plenty of intelligent points. Chicks in bikinis is not a bad thing because men like to look at titties. But have more games designed to turn women on as well. How do you not get this?Rotting Corpse said:
Granted, his video style needs work. But what about giving him a column instead? Or perhaps a podcast?
Consider me out. This guy is, in my humble opinion, nothing more than a troll hired to piss people off in video form every week. I really, really hope this isn't just some scheme to get traffic numbers up on days where Zero Punctuation isn't coming out (I have been a fan of this site for a long time, and I've never gotten the sense that it was suffering in viewership or member loyalty) because I love this site and I don't want to be cynical quite yet when it comes to one of my favorite websites, but this is pushing me away.
Seriously Escapist, you're better than this. I beseech you to get rid of this trash in favor of more material like Extra Credits which help make the community a better, more educated one. Or at least give us more British humor. Americans like myself can't get enough of that

Last week was boring and uninteresting, this one was actually pretty insightful and makes me interested in seeing what he comes out with next. I do agree, this guy would probably be better suited to a podcast or column though.
Absolutely. He's ranting for several minutes with about 10 secs of material.Rotting Corpse said:
And he still insists on hiding behind mirror glasses: if you're going to do that, why even bother putting a camera in front of your face? Show us something more interesting instead.
This one is NOT a keeper.
What part of "The key words banned by online shop Dejipare include things like torture, bondage, loli and rape. Regular Christian sex will still be perfectly acceptable, but it seems that the whole underage rape thing that has been seen in many an ero title will no longer be tolerated ... Thanks a lot, RapeLay. This is why we can't have nice things!" is defensible?perpetualburn said:
Jim is a poor excuse for a human being.
Alright, I like this guy's rant's and he DOES have a point, but I find myself getting drawn into the background music and then I snap back and have to click five seconds earlier because I wasn't paying attention... Might want to look into that
