Kuma Wrote: It has come to my attention after a certain GeekyGamerGirl on one of her youtube videos which you can see right here: GeekyGamerGirlLilcollection. In her video she brought out a collection of games that she recently tried out and one of them is Gears of War the first one. In that she brought up the fact that is very male dominated which is true until part 3 where they brought out a whole line of female gears; especially in the comic books as well as the novels. I read in many magazines why certain developers have not added the option of coed characters in the past, as an example in a Game Informer that talked about why the developers of Crackdown had the idea of female Agents, but decided not to use them. In going back a bit to Gears of War 3 when they finally decided to add female gears, it was awkward and threw off the story a bit, because even though I was a fan I had to ask, “Where the hell were all of you?”
For those who don't have time for massive open worlds or role-playing games with epic tales, these 15 games are worth checking out.
Gears of War 3 and Judgement servers have returned to their "updated" condition, adding several features, such as increased XP and more.
I currently play Gears 3 often, especially after the 60 FPS Boost. Gears of War is my favorite gaming franchise, and the Locusts are the coolest faction in history. Gears Judgment will always be a disgrace for not having the Locust in VS multiplayer.
GoW 3 and Judgement were the last installments before the series went woke and soulless. I'm level 50 in GoW 3 and LOVE it's multiplayer to death. It's just so crispy.
The Xbox 360 is one of the most successful consoles ever made, and the best games in its library are a huge part of why.
That is the most "normie" list that I ever saw. This does make some sense given the console in question, but still.
Sure, the list itself sucks. But that click-saver table-of-contents, every list should have that.
Might as well list it as the One's top twenty as well since all it had for games was backward compatibility.
Ok, wtf is going on? Seriously, I want to know who sent out a memo to every G.D. person who is a game blogger or pseudo-journalist about this topic so I can shoot them. Every day for the past month there has been AT LEAST one article repeating the same thing about women and games. All of this on the heels of Tropes vs Videogames. Are you all really that scared of one misinformed and misguided disgruntled woman? Hasn't the agenda been pushed enough by now?
The funny thing is when a female game blogger/journalist makes an article listing what she thinks are the sexiest female characters in games, and Ivy is like number 1 on the list. But seriously, this stuff is getting really old. People, open your eyes and see the variety that's already there and still coming. This is a non-issue. Not ever game has to include the ability to choose a man or a woman of any race. What would be the point of character driven plots if the character is "Joe or Jane" average? Do we really want developers to spend more time taking every story and splitting it in 2 so that it makes sense for a female or male character? Or do we rewrite scripts to avoid pronoun misuse?
*sigh* You know, I try to move away from this issue because modern day feminists and their apologizers really irritate the hell out of me. But it's hard to come to a site about gaming news and avoid something that's constantly thrown in our collective faces. PLAY GAMES LIKE SKYRIM WHERE YOU CAN BE WHATEVER THE HELL YOU WANT! Why isn't anyone talking about those kinds of games? Do you want to replay all of the Gears of War games as a woman? Buy it for PC and mod it so you can. Otherwise, stop making stupid claims and/or requests.
And for the love of the gaming gods, please give it a break on this crap. If even for just a little while.
Whoa Whoa, Whoa slow your tits. Did you read the article? For one it’s a Dude that wrote it and two There is nothing about the female body, it is all about giving gamer choices in picking genders and diversity. Honestly I don't care what a female wears in a game because they made males wear practically nothing for years in combat.
Secondly yes they do because the world is very diverse and maybe you might not want diversity in games. Some of us with Imagination would not mind seeing a character in a different perspective or when there is a female side character or demon side character, maybe some us want to see their side of the story. This should definitely be in Multi-player games.
Third who is throwing anything in your face? You don't have to read the topic! There is a little synopsis of what the topic is about and if it does not appeal to you, guess what? You do not have to read it! I would not mind playing Gears of War series over with the female characters in the game because it would make the whole series make sense now. The whole time we only saw one female and in part two we see another who is the villain and then they release books and comics of female gears...Sooooo yea thats their fought for putting that in some of our heads and causing such confusing with many that I had to happily explain to them why they put females in it now.
4th seriously read the article carefully next time before you go into this rant and I am so sorry I made you use your brain on this subject and have to think about this. In that you totally missed the point of my post!
As this person states that this article is not my newborn child, guess what you are not the developers big brother to come storming in when someone has an opinion. If you are tired of it like I said you just punishing yourself by reading, there is a quick synopsis to everyone's post to give you a general idea of what is what. Don't torture yourself!
