The gamegirl article is retarded. Bitching about how girl gamers give themselves a bad rep because they act like attention whoring bitches is fine and all but i dont see how the writer of the article is any better than the girls she's pointing out. In fact she is the type of girl gamer she's complaining about.

Look at her profile pics for fuck sake:


But hey im sure the article gets her a lot of attention.
Stuff like this is so annoying, but this spesific case is so tragic/comical. She's not model material, like most of these gamer girls (just like most people aren't model material), but just because she plays games, she felt like she could pull it off if there was some video game presence? sorry, any model could stand next to a guitar hero guitar. I would like to hear what these pictures were used for.

Hey that's Shoe's girlfriend. (I haven't listened to the podcast so not sure if that was mentioned)

They don't mention that fact on the podcast, but since you brought it up:

This is a good discussion, and I'm hoping we can stick to the issues and have it without resorting to any sort of personal attacks. Obviously, I'm not saying it to you, but your reply made me think of some of the posters out there who'll take this in a direction it doesn't need to go.

Dead Space was only around 6 - 7 hours. I don't regret buying it.

I haven't played Mirror's Edge though.
You finished Dead Space in 6-7 hours!? Did you have the director's cut with only 9 chapters? o_O

they are used on her profile on gamegirl.com, she's one of the girls that runs the site. there's a few other pics similar to the ones i posted. if you check the profiles of the other girls you'll notice they have normal pictures. Raychul is the only one that seems to be attention whoring.... :|

when i heard the podcast i had to go see who raychul was. then when i saw her profile i was like WTF?! hyprocryte much. i thought maybe there were two rachels but as far as i can tell there's not.

Even her name is attention whoring. Although I just checked that site, most of the other girls pictures look like myspace pics.

BTW there is no banner ad on the site? How do they make money?

there's ads on the page but they are within the blog posts.


the other girls picture look more or less like this:

Navie-8.jpg


kind of myspace-ish but at least they dont look like preview pics for a porn site.

Another forum I am a member of had a terrific time setting up female myspace/facebook/etc accounts to get free stuff from those sign up 5 people deals. It was pretty rad.

I've modified my opinion on the subject. I don't really care if a woman hams it up for the cameras (I've been told I better not.) It's the internet and people just have to learn to let shit slide (both ways).

The real issue is the girl gaming league/tournament phenomena. I'm not saying I compete at the highest levels (hell I don't even play any pc/console game organized anymore) but if I were relegated to a Special Ed league based on my sex I'd pretty pretty goddamned upset with that.


@ Dead Space. I played it on console for ~12 hours. If it's anything like I experienced with GTA: SA I'm pretty sure the improved mouse/kb aiming would cut that time significantly.

Yep I know this thread is ANCIENT. But FUCK IT, I hate the search engine here and its impossible to search for a LAN Party thread.

So anyway, any signs of this going up today? We need redemption from last week. Hopefully its the regular crew.... Ashley, Chandronait, Chuff, Teanah (Shes great as the only girl) and Ryan.
