Ashes, you're turning into one of those guys who thinks girlgaf and girl-age are synonymous.
GLaDOS, Zelda (specialy WW tetra and Sheik), Celes and my probably all time favorite character ever (wich I might understand if she don't fit), wich to me is the best example of female character ever created (specialy considering the game she is in ...) :
Also, my relationship with heels is "hate the sin, not the sinner" =x
And I love some good poems ... I guess the "who don't" would be better when you think that music is nothing more than melody with a poem ...
But most of the "melodyless poems" that I like are in portuguese .. so i will just put some Neil Gaiman (in doubt, you can always trust Neil Gaiman)

I love poetry but I love love love heels. When I was younger I justified not wearing them because I'm definitely tall enough not to need them and wearing them makes me so tall that I really stand out (especially with my mostly 5'2'' and shorter girlfriends) - but as I've grown more comfortable with myself, I've realized I like feeling tall and standing out. I occasionally get comments from both shorter men and women about it, but I'm comfortable with myself so I don't care what they think.
I'd never spend hundreds of dollars on them though because of how quickly they scuff. Well actually, I'm not spending anything on heels right now because I destroyed part of my foot. :/

I do too. I'm only 5'7" so not as tall as other girls (my aunt is 6'
) but I love it when I'm the tallest girl in the room. I felt really bad because of it for awhile (especially when I lived in Japan) but I've come to love myself.I enjoy wearing heels but usually nothing over 2", and definitely not over 3". I prefer thick, chunky heels over skinny ones.

LATIN, MATRIPEDICABUS, DO YOU SPEAK IT
You can search by lots of factors like country or calories, teach non basic "shit" and have videos and you can change pages with your voice, has timers and all other stuff.
These days you can probably find better stuff on IOS ... but this is awesome !

Ladies that I like in games... hm...
And the women of Uncharted.
Yep, love them. Chloe vs Elena?
Personally, I really like Elena. Badass reporter, can use a gun, (most likely) dumped Drake cause he couldn't stop his adventuring.
Chloe is awesome, though. They're both amazing.
Because Naughty Dog handled them so well...really looking forward to Ellie. She was my avatar before RPJ.

My theory is that they are so good because of Amy Hennig, ie more women should write videogames.
Or at least get someone who doesn't think Star Wars is the ultimate in narration and characterization ( like Erik Wolpaw from Valve).

I dunno why other girls like poems besides the effort and "cute" of rhymes..
But I usually like them because it's like sketching with words.
Longer prose is like a painting or more complicated illustration.
Poems are usually short, slightly vague, and bring up pieces of imagery that you piece together like a sketch with a few sweet lines would. *__*
I don't love cooking, but I'll do it if I need to eat or want a certain taste. I am not that great and I burn and poorly cook plenty of things at times, but I am kind of baffled by people who are actually kitchen-illiterate. I DUNNO HOW THAT IS POSSIBLE! lol Especially when everything has heating/cooking instructions on them these days. You'd think that a lot of people could.. generalize those rules to other similar foods? I dunno.
And despite not LOVING to cook, and not having the taste for most foods (wont' eat a lot of meat or seafood dishes) I love watching the Food Network. lol
Perfect. One of my fave gaming characters in general.

Yeah, it's hard for me to choose between the two as well. I can't wait for The Last of Us, 2013 is so damn far away!
WAT? I'd understand if you said MGS but Uncharted? Cutscenes are between 3 to 8 minutes, most are just a few minutes long, though.
The "gameplay" is still movie stuff.
Holding Up and mashing X to "platform" isn't gameplay :/

If you talk to Billie about her gaming preferences you're probably gonna end up disliking her, just saying.
Glados, certain variations of Zelda , Impa are my fave female game characters.

I like things!
Everyone loves Nier right? OMG KAINE IS ANOTHER FAVORITE GIRL
She's awesome cause she's voiced by Laura Bailey
and she's intersexed which is super rare in videogames
Oh come on, that's not the majority of the game. And I don't know why people wlould want it to be, its a shooter. There are tons of genres that have it far worse, like side scrollers or most platformers, you press forward and move right stick to shoot/press X to jump over pits.

I dont. Rap is cool as is kinda the same though.

Heh, sorry was over-simplifying like Billie.
I know you can do other stuff like, uh, collect useless junk. There's tons of gameplay in Uncharted. Just an example, you can play the majority of UC2 sneaking around and stealth killing or you can mix it up and melee people, go rambo and stealth kill all in one playthrough. I'd agree if someone said there wasn't enough gameplay in MGS4, but still I loved what little there was. That was my major complaint with that game, that and the awful story.

lol inanna is on fire.
if you mean like a crashing plane then yes
Don't get me wrong I love platformers and sidescrollers even though they can be pretty simplistic! Puzzle games and RPG's can get very complicated depending on the game. Not every game needs to be complicated to be enjoyable, though. Shooters are somewhere in the middle not extremely complicated but not over simplistic either and I think Uncharted is a typical shooter in that regard. I think its a good thing to like a bit of everything. Well, I do anyway.

I like a bit of everything, but platformers are like my favorite genre so I won't stand any criticisms towards it! Even fairly true (though i'd say there are a good amount of exceptions) ones!
Cheers, sorry, etc. This THREAD IS CURSED. I tell you.
/I regret nothing. [though I swear my phone was with P**]
Facebook comments editing ftw! When did that come in?
Btw, I'm 26. All of you who are older, better beware, cause I'm catching up.
My bad. To be fair, having read what I wrote... it's clear that I made no sense.
All right, resume your normal thread.
It gets better. Samuel L. Jackson has done his own narration of it. ;P
If certain people love it, there aren't a very many of them. Poetry just isn't big... anywhere. Those who like it, like it. Those who don't - well they make up the majority of the public. Women do read more than men (everyone keeps saying it at least here in the UK), overall I mean (novels included) - don't get me started on the poetry books best-seller list - so I suspect, there are more women who love poetry than men.
Just look at this thread.. It's the last challenge thread. Do you see a lot of love there?
Poetry is accessible, but a lot of times, I get that it is it's own thing, with rules, structures etc. e.g. The secondary objective that week was to write a Trimeric:
And by now, most people are already bored if not asleep. Three of us attempted it. It's in the above thread. You can hate on mine here, I don't mind.
I'm not sure, why you brought up women loving poems. I've never heard of that. Maybe you have it confused with songwriters or people who play the guitar?
And with that I'm out.
I laughed out loud here XD
but girls, are you seriously arguing? no need for it. I am sure there is pretty good stuff in all the games mentioned so far. It's just a matter of taste.
Lighten up dude, we're just teasing each other.
I don't know man. As an outsider looking in, that platformers comment crossed some lines. You can't just take that kind of talk back.

These days I just fire up Halo: Reach once in a blue moon then wonder why I'm playing it. I'm not really into gaming like I used to be.
I'd rather chat in IRC than play games :/
Still excited for a few games this year, though.
I go through phases where I get really bored of gaming, usually lasts a few weeks or month. I'm more of play everything kinda girl, though and I don't stick to one genre like shooters or platformers or RPGs, that would bore me to tears! I also have this self imposed ban on how many games I can get per month so sometimes I don't game as much if I playthrough the games quickly, like most single player games.
Except I'm not gonna take it back.
