I think it's sexist to say that women can't handle or "feel intimidated" by violence and fantasy plotlines.

most of the women i know like to play virtual card games, mahjong, tetris, runescape, o and tekken its not that they cant handle the violence in games, its more to do with the way there brains handle 3 dimensional vectors

men and womens brains are very different, its not sexist to say we are into different things, its a fact.

also due to testosterone we are more into violence than they are.

It's easy to notice that you don't know my wife or most of Balkans girls....

I am not sure if Mr. Lowenstein is watching TV commercials lately, as they are fool of horror and action movies...

Games are in that fact very similar to movie industry...

Ha ha ha! Oh my God! Dinner table conversations about games?

"So, what did you do today honey?"

"I defeated Diablo and saved the world, Marla!"

"Oh, what a laugh!"

I never got what the beef was with people complaining about violent movies or video games (or violent books for that matter)

research shows that Attila the Hun was violent and he didn't play Grand Theft Auto :crazy:

Insider or not, ESA has about as much right to direct the industry of games as a gas station attendant has the right to driver a Oil Tanker

they just like to make a lot of noise at regular intervals to justify their existence and funding. they surely have P.R people who's sole job that is.
