Ask The GameGirls

Jan. 5 3:02 PM by TheGameGirls


This weeks question for the Ask The GameGirls comes from Max and his fellow gamer buddies. He writes:

Hey there,


Me and my fellow gamer buddies think that we really like girls that are into gaming, hardcore or casual ones.

Although, I know boys and girls tend to have different way of thinking, so I had to ask: Are gamer girls attracted by guys who play video games, or would they rather go for the non-gamer ones? I know this is probably a case-by-case kind of question, but I'd like to know at least what you girls think of it.

Big thanks!


-Max-

Ask the GameGirls: Getting Your Siblings To Game

Nov. 24 1:53 AM by TheGameGirls

We are back with another segment of Ask the GameGirls! This week our question comes from GamerSister:

Dear GameGirls;
I am an avid gamer, and an older sister. I have tried to show my younger sister that gaming is fun, and exciting (through a ton of games) in the hopes that she would get into it and we would have something in common. Well, she has never really been big on it.. that is until I finally got Grand Theft Auto 4. It was against my better judgment that I let her play it (because she is only 10 years old) but it was obviously the best gaming experience she has ever had. She didn't really delve into the missions too much, what caught her attention most was the giant city that could be explored. I don't want to tell her that she can't play GTA because I have been trying so hard to get her interested but it's just horribly inappropriate. So my question to you is, Do you know of any games that involve the same kind of exploration but that would also be appropriate for her age?
Thanks in advance, Love the site, Keep up the good work,
Gamersister :)

This weeks question is from Masterfang:
Hello,
Masterfang here.

I was actually curious, though I've seen a few of you talk about your thoughts on the matter, I'd like to know the general consensus of the GG's, considering you're kind of in the middle of all this, being girls, but also being gamers:

What are your thoughts on Fat Princess? Does it objectify women? Is it in a negative way? Or is it a fun looking romp with hilarious hi-jinx?

Cheers and God speed.

This weeks question is from Kevin:
Hi umm..gamergirl my girlfriend is a huge geek all she does is play video games and watch anime. Now im not saying it's a bad thing cause I am a pretty big geek myself. I even started my own youtube review series called get this The Generic Geek. I know most dudes would be freaking out at the idea of having a girl like this but man it gets old when finishing BT in WoW is more important then the intimate part of a relationship and no you can't do both at the same time we have tried. Not as fun as you would think. What should I do?

This weeks question is from GreenSabre:

Well first I'd like to apologize on behalf of the male Gameproers for the abuse you girls take from some of us guys. You know, some of us get rejected for dates left and right and have to take that anger out anonymously over the internet. But it does kind of lead into the question I was going to ask. As a 27 year old married man, I always get asked why I still play video games. I just tell people it's a passion and a hobby like watching tv, going to bars, etc that is considered 'normal' for a guy like me. No I don't really accomplish anything when I game, but it's fun and I enjoy it. I know very few female gamers (my wife likes Brain Age and board games on her DS, but calling her a 'gamer' is a stretch) and I was wondering what you ladies think about the gaming stigma in our culture. I would think that young adult female gamers would be generally perceived as even bigger social outcasts than us guys. It was hard enough for me to find a woman who didn't think I should stop playing video games.

This week's question comes from Ling:

Hey, I actually have two questions. My first one is rather silly but I just want to know, who do you at GameGirl view as your top 3 favorite game developers? The second is more serious and I felt it best to ask the all of you. What is the big appeal about Mirror's Edge? I've seen the trailers and the E3 demo footage and I'm just not seeing the wow factor of it all. It just seems really...boring at this point in time and it confuses me how nearly everyone seems so excited about it.

Sorry we missed last week folks! So much to do so little time but we heard some good and bad announcements from E3. This weeks question is from Kevin:
Hello Ladies,
What a great year to be a gamer, am I right? Huge titles like Grand Theft Auto IV, Mario Kart Wii, and Super Smash Bros Brawl have already hit the shelves, and the year isn't even half over! With the rest of the year to look forward to, I can't wait to get my hands on the next Banjo-Kazooie title, Guitar Hero IV, Gears of War 2, and Dragon Ball Z Burst Limit.
My question is,
    which upcoming videogames are you GameGirls anticipating the most?

-Kevin

Since there were just so many games to choose from we decided that we would pick only two games each. Read on to see our choices!
