God of War: Ascension 'Bros Before Hoes' Woman-Hating Controversy

I haven't played it, but adam sessler mentions in his GoW ascension review that you stomp a woman's face into mush and you get a trophy afterwards called "bros before hoes". I'm convinced these devs are so desperate for any kind of buzz they resort to this kind of BS because they know the feminists will cause a sh!tstorm on the internets over this.

check out his review, he seems upset about it

Ass Cree Brotherhood. 

the thing in mgs that bugged me is how they make you sit through a huge load screen then snake starts talking shyt and berates you for being impatient and acts all snotty about how long it takes to get into the game.

yeah, like i'm the a$$hole  here.

Am I missing something?

...A mystical female monster called a fury....

Yep, over anilizing way too much there Adam....

I'm sorry, but what a bunch of vagina's.

You stomp a furies face in. It just happens to have a woman's face. Nonstop-Madness

If women want equal rights that bad, they should be able to take an ass kicking as well as any man.

OH yeah, lets make this thread go places people.

Did you just change the title into something else? :|nintendoboy16

Not a big deal and devs show some humor.  Get over it.

They should call this one Birth Control.

hes trying to make something out of nothing. I see no problem here.

For the record I don't hate women.

I just think they should be able to get their ass beat as well.

Equal rights man.

...Because it fits this topic no matterhow you look at it.

I don't understand why they are making a big deal out of this, all the crazy things Kratos does in this game and a trophy name and killing a woman is what sets people off?

It's the same mentality people have when you flash tittays at them, it's disgusting and morally questionable.

But slaughtering people by the thousands is perfectly ok.

If you don't get it the "woman" in the trophy is related to is this.....

True that.

It's that Sony way of Life, just keep on winning, exclusive after exclusive, it's just too much.

Has Kratos done worst ? .... Lets take a look at GOW3.

• Plunge his thumbs into a guys eyes, snap his neck and throw him off a cliff [spoiler] Poseidon [/spoiler]
• Rip a guy's head straight off his body. [spoiler] Helios [/spoiler]
• Snap a woman's neck like toothpick [spoiler] Hera [/spoiler]
• Make a guys skull into jelly [spoiler] Hercules [/spoiler]
• Chop a guys legs off one by one [spoiler] Hermes [/spoiler]
• etc. 

The only time this gen trophies mattered?

Immature and poorly-conceived? Yes. Misogynistic? Not by a long shot.1PMrFister

Kratos fights and kills a woman who is as strong as he is. Nothing wrong there. "Bros before Hoes" trophy was thought up by a woman developer at Sony Santa Monica. The name of the trophy is stupid, but it's not a big deal. The Sess just can't handle the stress.jman1553

That's

The worst

Joke I've heard

To date.

I'm a huge fan of Sessler but getting mad about that is just pathetic.  He shows his age in getting mad about it, though I do get his point, the games not about some chick killing things in grusome ways it's about a guy killing thinkgs in a grusome way so "Bros before Hoe's is completely fine where it is.

in a video game i wouldn mind beating anyone face in, but the fact that it congratulates you w/ "bro's before hoes" i just see it as an immature form of satire

i would be able to get a laugh if i was 12
