Don't give in to the temptation to flame back at people upsetting you, or it'll be "nice ban" for you as well.

Re: "Male" games vs. "Female" games
Kilroy, I take it you're the same Kilroy I met in Nebraska and at the US Open. The way you've responded to me here is extremely passive-aggressive and spiteful given that you didn't have a problem at all with me when I was chatting to you in-person.
On a more relevant note, I just now put two-and-two together to realize that you're someone I knew who has gone through a gender conversion, not someone who was female from the beginning. I'm not sure how that would affect the female/male components of these games or even their competitive aspects; you could throw a similar monkey wrench into my construct by asking what gays or lesbians would look for in games. Right now, I can only speak about Generic Heterosexual Male and Generic Heterosexual Female. |

Rofl. FFR is clearly a demonstration of your rhythmic skills... more like hand-eye coordination but PAing is simply rhythmic.

Re: "Male" games vs. "Female" games
I like harvest moon for the maintenance. I like some maintenance games. I also like competition. I like both. Sometimes I like maintaining something and enjoying the results from the maintenance. Yeah.

I play Halo Reach, but those MLG players are like living aimbots.

Re: "Male" games vs. "Female" games
I'm a female gamer and video game tester and I like pretty much everything but sports games. I rather go outside and get my sports fix. But yea, idk where this business about girls not being competitive comes from. Most female gamers i know are pretty hardcore.

Re: "Male" games vs. "Female" games
That's just it, though. You specified "female gamer". The women I know who play games regularly are competitive in all the ways that men are. But the women I know who are dragged into games because their boyfriend plays, or are sucked into The Sims because their roommate got it -- those girls would never, ever feel the need to beast someone's score on Stepmania, or ramp up their APM on Warcraft 3. And those girls are in the majority.

Re: "Male" games vs. "Female" games
Perhaps those majority girls feel the need to compete with other girls stronger than they do other men, via things like looks and popularity. Perhaps its not as noticeable to you and everyone else, however, because winning in that is much more subjective...there is no top score to clearly beat.
I dunno about you all, but when I was in junior high and highschool, there seemed to be a very strong clique of popular girls, but, I know, at least from the perspective of a girl myself, that there wasn't quite the same thing for guys. If you were to be cajouled into taking up knitting from your gf, would you feel the need to be as competitive in it as you are in video games? |

Re: "Male" games vs. "Female" games
I'm a girl and the only reason why i play games is to get as good as my brother and guy friends so i can be able to play with them or kick their ***. I guess it's to show that girls can play games so dont take us lightly, but we do enjoy playing games.
