Trailers: Earth Defense Force: Babes

[Fidelias]

Far be it for me to not enjoy opportunities to see sexy women in provocative poses, but what the hell does this have to do with the actual game? If you're going to pander to my basest instincts, best to tie it in with the product a bit more solidly than this.

You took the words right out of my mouth.

I wasn't planning on buying this game anyway.

And really, do we really need more of this? I mean, between this, Duke Nukem, and the Dead Space 2 commercials, we're on our way to having games freaking outlawed. Why can't you just make regular commercials, that actually have something to do with the product...

 

[Frostbite3789]

Well, publishing boobs - err, babes is ok but at least get hot ones...
Well, that was horrible in every single way, don't mind not having PS3.

What in any way does EDF have to do with the PS3? This one is multi-platform and EDF: 2017 was a 360 exclusive.

Try to be a fanboy just slightly less please.

OT: Eh, boring video. Fun game.

 

[kannibus]

Um, what just happened?

Also I thought EDF? Duke Nukem? Wha-....?

Confused.

 

[BSCCollateral]

That was a dreadful trailer.

It's a shame, because the gameplay snips looked intriguing.

 

[Sonicron]

Yeah, fuck you too, VC Software and D3 Publisher. Feel free to horse around with your advertising sluts, contract some horrible venereal diseases and die from them.

God damn. This is the kind of insult that gets me even more riled up than PETA or the WBC.

 

[Sprinal]

Ladies and women-folk,
I am a man, and I apologize for my gender. :-(

Prity much that

OT well This is sad...

Almost as bad as the Dante's Inferno advertising campeign...

Well AVIOD LIKE THE PLAGUE

 

[CardinalPiggles]

Earth is totally screwed!

Oh wait they're RPing, good.

This game looks worth while from what I can tell of the rare bits of gameplay.

 

[Trilliandi]

...Still waiting on the punch-line... maybe if more women gamed, they couldn't JUST pander to one side... or maybe the gaming industry would simply collapse since it's STARTING to look like they don't KNOW how to do anything ELSE.

Idea for the follow-up video: An army of female gamers storming the studio and crushing the developer's pelvis' with those tall-ass heels they seem obsessed with putting them in and then animating wrong anyways because they think we're all too horny to NOTICE. Enlisting now.

 

[mlooshka]

I'm completely unclear on this ad's message. Were the women supposed to represent characters from the game? Maybe trying to point out that they are especially badass by their willingness to risk their vital organs by fighting intergalactic spiders with bare midriffs? And what's with the one at the end who is clearly going off to battle armed with nothing but a riding crop? I want to see THAT boss fight.

Or maybe they are just gearing up for a long co-op session of insert-game-title-here, followed by pedicures and pillow fights? And if so, why are they narrating that evening's plan to the photographer? Is this some unlockable first-person mission that will be available in DLC? Enquiring minds want to know.

 

[DementedSheep]

Uh ok...how do the girls relate to the actual game? Really if the best way they can think of to advertise this it to pay some chicks to dress and pose provocatively it makes it seem like the game it just isn?t interesting so they have to fall back on sex appeal.

 

[CBanana]

I get the sense that these advertisers really want to be advertising for something like Senran Kagura as opposed to what they're supposed to be advertising. Of course, that begs the question that if the advertisers don't care for their game, why should I?

 

[Zeitgeist1983]

Bugs as a selling point!? O.O

Seriously, do they think the regular gamer is that cheap and stupid?

 

[Zeitgeist1983]

only ash can express the questions i am asking myself now. mind the last segment of the video.

[gametrailers=715502]

do i have to add more?

Want a RevRant show on the escapist! This guy is great! Think about escapist! Please!

 

[Zeitgeist1983]

Sorry! Double-post! =(

 

[nightwolf667]

I...uh...erm...hoo...what?

As a female gamer...as a woman...as a human being...I don't know if I have words for how offensive that was...

Though a multitude of comments in this thread are raising my faith in the male gender. Slightly. Faith in the gaming industry as a whole: reduced.

I don't even...sigh

Honestly, women like you - hell, even the men in this thread who are pathetically crying over boobs in their games - make me sicker than this video, but I won't go into further detail since I rather not get banned.

As if anyone gives a flying horse leg about your faith in the male gender...

Whatever. If you guys want to whine about women being objectified in the gaming community, this is the wrong place to do it, and if you find this trailer lacking in gameplay footage, I suggest looking this title up on Youtube.

It's a dishonest marketing campaign that's premised on the idea that if you show the male gamer demographic boobs, they'll be a huge amount more likely to buy the game regardless of what the game is actually like. If anything, it's far more sexist against men than women as it's pretty much a direct insult against mens' intelligence.

And you're the type of woman I appreciate. Seldom do you (as in I) find a girl who can see something sexist that's not aimed at women.
