Though I guess it's possible it would negatively impact the hackandslashinstantactionbigboomies gamers. FPS and hack and slash games don't really need a story anyway, so I doubt it would make a difference anywho....  [Read More]

A new report released by the Entertainment Software Association has found that 38% of gamers are female. that doesnt surprise me, though I would have figured it more around 30, and actually none of those stats surprise me for some reason. I just don...  [Read More]

I think you're misinterpreting "hitting each end of the spectrum" as "hitting every possible end of the spectrum." On a two dimensional spectrum, ie: a closed ended line, if you're hitting girls gamers and guy gamers, those could...  [Read More]

:lol: Cuz men don't, right? But anyway, stoffe yelled at us the last time we started talking about this. :p In terms of games failing to hit both ends of the spectrum, I don't necessarily think it's true that a lot of games have failed; a lot of gam...  [Read More]

When was the last time you ever saw a man who wasn't a professional chef do a decent job cooking, Inyri? And, for that matter, when was the last time you ever saw a man who wasn't totally insane do a good job cleaning? I don't know if you're just in...  [Read More]

:lol: I'm no doctor, but would it be even possible to strangle someone with a human spine? You'd probably have to use a contortionist's spine. Like one of those Cirque De Solei(sp) performers. Of course, with how jagged the spine is, it might just t...  [Read More]

I personally would choose a character/avatar of my liking with the right feel should I choose to rp. And if I wanna go grind and hack and slash I would just use the weirdest looking one, or one with an advantage in its physical looks (harder to see e...  [Read More]

True, but depends on more of how you play the character:) Your character might not want to die before expressing her/his feelings. It would be pretty awesome if they gave the gamer the choice to choose what kind of romance it is though, i.e. true lov...  [Read More]

I'm sorry to derail this thread but I'd like to know what the plot holes in Romeo and Juliet are. To be honest, if the developers aren't going to do the romance in a realistic way then they may as well just leave it out and divert the energy into so...  [Read More]

I don't personally know a lot of female gamers, though I tend to agree with what is usually labeled as the "female" perspective on games, that they need better stories and more depth. But that may also just be because I'm a writer. I don't...  [Read More]

Yeah, I've been thinking the whole Monopoly line too since EA first acquired BioWare. I mean, it's not like EA lacks the money or manpower to develop any of these things on their own. They just seem to be buying them out because they can....  [Read More]

I vote Yoda because I think your comparason's are off. I you wanna compare NWN+TES3, okay, but Oblivion should be paired up with a more recent NWN, like 2. Both sucked horribly IMO, but Oblivion's Shivering Isles was fun. Mask of the Betrayer was O...  [Read More]
