    iOS game lets you beat your boyfriend

    The double standard isn't people making excuses, it's people flat-out excusing it because women are considered weaker than men inherently. Go talk to the "women shouldn't serve on the frontlines" crowd about it and get back to us when their draconian sexual paradigms don't hold sway over the...

    iOS game lets you beat your boyfriend

    You have to start somewhere. Preferably not at a single-level shallow iOS game that illustrates a hypocrisy. I get it. Finally being able to overtly say about a material piece of media "THIS IS SEXIST" wherein the sexism is toward males, is tempting.

    Easy Mode Hate Explained

    An example: Battletoads. Welp, this thread lost credibility fast. Also, flawed logic. Aside from the disdain for an easy/normal mode in games where the difficult plays an integral part coming from a completely different place, easy mode would make it easier to brag. Without easy mode...

    It could be a male sub fantasy.

    iOS game lets you beat your boyfriend

    Ready the fedoras. I hope this isn't the same crowd that swears most video games aren't at least mildly sexist. Also the reason why a game like this doesn't get a particularly large sphere of press is because the media tend not to treat female-to-male domestic violence because females are...

    Dark Souls Softcore mode?

    You're definitely still peeing in his soup. It's not out of malice, it's just because the ingredients are too potent for everyone who couldn't get into the restaurant, so the mixture has to be distilled with something. P.S. And your point about how Dark Souls belongs to From Software and...

    Dark Souls Softcore mode?

    Because Dark Souls is an exceptional game. Not just in terms of quality, but in terms of how the dynamics of gameplay lock in with each other. How many games that you're talking about, other 'difficult' games, have a mechanic that allows for other plays to invade your world without permission...

    X you hate that everyone else likes.

    "Shove down throats". This is ironic, because so far the most awkward posts have been the ones railing against the idea of the thread. Everyone who is just complying with what the thread is supposed to do is having a good laugh.

    (As we all know) Women are not new to gaming.

    In the future, everyone is a hipster. Everyone.

    Vergil confirmed for DmC

    My problem isn't with the changes, but with the fact that all the new ideas are fucking stupid. I don't care if it's not the same Vergil or the same Dante, but what the Hell is with this ~KILLUMINATI~ Big corporations=Devil Punk Rock Kid=Angel hipster nonsense? How heavy handed does a message...

    (As we all know) Women are not new to gaming.

    While I agree with most all of the sarcasm being played with here, I have to add that this is a misconception, that the gaming community collectively forbid females from being allowed in. Really, video games began and until recently remained a mostly masculine occupation. There was no fence...

    I just wish they had better taste in games.

    Poll: English vs Rest of the World: Do some games get worse/better with different audio

    Soul Calibur's voice acting is fine? What? The game is pretty campy, but it's a fighting game, they're all campy. Same as Metal Gear Solid. Basically, if the character is Japanese or the whole game is in Japan, maybe there should be Japanese seiyu working as the voices. But a game like Metal...

    Want to get my feet wet in the jrpg world

    Why has only one person said Chrono Trigger? Play Chrono Trigger. And while you're at it, play The Last Remnant. But beware. The Last Remnant is trying and very tactical. You can't go wrong with Xenoblade either.

    Poll: Lara and the Tomb raider controversy

    I never said it only happened to females. I'm not talking about Lara Croft when I talk about rape statistics. Do I constantly have to repeat the fact that the discussion is about rape as a trope in all of media? The data shows that rape survivors tend to crumble psychologically after they...
