Sorry ... Just had to chip in my 2pence worth on the debate surrounding the "the objectification of women" and "fat-bashing" with of all games Fat Princess
FUNNIEST THING I'VE HEARD IN AGES !!!
for those of you who have not read anything about this you can read Danny O'Dwyer's Blog post or the original spark and now very well read Feminist Gamer Blog
I have only one thing to add .. would anyone see this as anything except for funny if it was say a simpsons game .. where each player gets to roll around Homer ? One better would the writer of the blog care if it was a game called Fat King ?
Of Course not !
These sorts of "people are so insensitive" type of cries are just so small minded ... and diversive !
Much like people who get up in arms about Res Evil 5
... what these people want to do is remind you that there is a difference between men and women ... between black and white .... and the simple truth is the quicker people get it into their heads that there isn't a difference then the quicker we can all just get along
but to the writer of that blog i have only one thing to say. Get off your high horse and think of this as any child / family friendly animated movie / cartoon... it's not designed to insult or ridicule anyone ... it's your cynicism that sees these things ... it's you that's causing the problem.
