I'm sorry. I think that sad **** remark just really got my back up. However, you did say it was supposed to be a joke so i guess I shouldn't have been a dick about things. Anyway, this game looks amazing. Also, blockbuster have hot a?29.99 per order deal on for it I noticed today.

It was a harsh comment 'the sad c one' but my first reaction to this game was negative if you check a few threads back. Getting over the up skirt camel hoof kill poses it could be a very decent game considering the developer.

I think family fry is right. I have old man bug lately because I am not getting my kicks from games. I think it's because Life itself is giving me more joy then ever as I have a 3 month old daughter and 3 year old son. When I turn the console on I get angry at myself like 'Why can't I just enjoy these games like I used too dammit'. Having a daughter made me see the world in a different light all together but I realise it's not really a discussion for a video game forum.

Although the wife would call me a sad c for playing this game.

Did your view on media change slightly? like you started seeing how 'sexualised most media is'? or did you just view the world in the same light?

No, but I'm a laid back creature. Then I have outbursts, and its me that feels like the idiot, as its me that was the idiot. But again, Nothing changed, as I've always put people I care about 1st. (or sometimes, I'm selfish, but not intentionally)

*edit* i think i could of worded that whole paragraph better* i see/saw the media in the same light.

[Family Fry]

It's true though, don't you think? If any non-gaming people who didn't know me saw me playing that game, they would instantly label me as such. And for a medium that struggles to be taken seriously, games like this isn't really helping. We can argue how tongue-in-cheek it all is, but with the option of playing in a bikini, we know the game just pulls out all the stops to reach a certain demographic. Not saying the game won't be good, simply that I feel it's trying a bit too hard.

Don't understand why gaming needs to be taken seriously?
If I were sat playing lolipop chainsaw people would more than likely take one look and call me sad, same people who'd call me sad when I was sat playing super Mario world on snes cause it was a kids game.
Nothing changes if your a gamer and people who are non-gamers have an opinion of you, they formed that opinion long ago and it will never change.

I for one would like to be able to say that gaming is one of my passions and life without people around me thinking lesser of me for doing so. And this game could really enforce the narrow minded view many people have about it.

See I heard Rihanna's 'Come on rude boy boy can you get it up' on the radio the other day and began thinking ' That song is too explicit for young children to sing. They are singing about big erect cocks etc etc. Before my kids were born that tune just flew over my head. Maybe when the kids get past 6 I'll start relaxing more about these things as there are still some 'new parent' anxieties still lingering.

[BaronSqwelch]

I would rather my kids play stuff like this than COD, the realism level of the violence sets them WAY apart! Why sex = bad violence = fine I will never get. Not that they will be playing either game in any case. Also, tho why anyone cares so much, anyone I have ever met who looked down on my gaming saw the controller and made up their mind. Doesnt matter wether its Journey, FIFA or Gal Gun on the screen.

I can't tell if this games looks good or utter gayballs. Being a thirty odd year old man I don't think I should be playing games where you're running around as a young girl in a short skirt. The bit with the mega chicken looked fun though

It's cool dude, it's cool.

If anyones asks you, what do you do to relax?
Just tell them you furiously masturbate to hardcore pornography as its less embarrassing, the conversation that follows is usually the same as if you had admitted to playing games.

So a completely naked female character is fair game for a future title? what point does it become....sad?

[ETC]

It's cool dude, it's cool.

If you liked that one.....

[boxhead]

Comparatively, I'd say this game looks more high brow than any gears or cod game.

[BaronSqwelch]

I know I'm old when I look at that pink catsuit and wonder how she actually got into it rather than perv on her

[speedlolita]

You realise those are both Jessica Nigri right.
