Halo is a great game series and deserves more positive praise then it gets.
Ashley Williams from Mass Effect is the best female in the whole series. Not racist.
Sangheili are totally cooler than Spartans.
Bioshock is better than System Shock 2 (person preferences, don't kill me)
Neither PC not Console is inherently superior and you shouldn't start fights about it.
Having a female character dressed in a sexually provokative way isn't necessarily 'empowering' because this isn't a person choosing to wear those clothes, it's a character YOU designed to wear those clothes to be appealing.
I don't think liking popular FPS's and playing smaller obscure indie games have to be mutually exclusive.
I don't like Penny Arcade, like, at all. I just don't find it funny.
I oppose the marketting of Duke Nukem Forever and I agree with the feminist groups who are against it, especially in relation to the whole 'Capture the Babe' gametype. I don't care if you call it 'satire' because all I see is sexism being celebrated as being funny and awesome with no hint of actual social commentary in any way.
I never got an image of Gears of War as being a macho obsessive game, but then again I have asperger's and see the world differently to other people so maybe I missed something.
I liked the Dead Space games.
I can't honestly say I was wowed by Half Life 2.
I oppose Team Ninja games out of principle and subsequently have never played any since my experience with Dead or Alive 4. I don't care if you try to argue that they are 'tough' or that their sexuality is 'empowering' to them. That's why I made that earlier point.
