I for one found out something interesting: Nitzer Ebb is still together?! That's unbelievably awesome! I thought they stopped playing in the late 90s.
Anyway, this discussion actually presents an interesting view on the Escapist posters' psyches. I'd love to see some demographic information about how the opinion skews across age lines, but it kinda looks like generally the younger forumers are being more vocal about disliking it. (The venom is quite staggering, actually.)
Personally, my opinion is 'meh.' If I didn't have any better plans, I probably could be convinced to go watch women dress up as videogame characters and then strip, while VG music was playing. It'd be interesting to know if the women in that show actually were familiar with the characters they were portraying, however. The fact that they weren't as perfect as plastic surgery could make them leads me to believe that they just might have been. (Either that, or the producers of the show couldn't afford to pay to get the 'A' bodies up there.)
