A liberal application of hot women, fast cars and big explosions will get us through an average day and leave us with a warm glow in our hairy bellies that asserts to our inner insecurities that we are, without a shadow of a doubt, men. Big manly men. It's really the only explanation as to why the likes of Gears of War ( muscle-bound men saving the world by blowing stuff up), the GTA series (unscrupulous men making money by stealing fast cars, eliciting hot women and blowing stuff up) and Halo (a superman defeating an alien menace by driving jeeps, rescuing a hot cyberwoman and blowing stuff up) are so dominant in the bestseller lists."
