@Thanatos2k: "Unless it's true. Can you prove it's not?"

I cannot disprove that belief, just like I cannot disprove a Flying Spaghetti Monster.

@brn-dn: "This seems like a sexist statement."

Things aren't always as they seem, then. He's implying that men and women are equally capable, and the large difference in representation is due to being socially disadvantaged. Implying that men and women are equally capable is, in fact, not sexist.

@balrogbane: 'Simply let men gravitate towards jobs they like, such as the tech industry, and let women gravitate towards jobs they want, like teaching?'

So, is it a natural pre-disposition that causes this difference in jobs they want? If you believe that, then you're sexist. If you don't believe that, then it seems the only other reason for the difference is cultural and social influences, which is what he thinks are a problem.

@zeldafan195: "a woman with equal qualifications to a man would easily get the job"

What's wrong with that? If they're equal, then why not choose the one in the minority? I don't understand whining about losing a tie.

@odolwa99: The Last Starfighter did it well before that, in 1984.

@bbq_R0ADK1LL: Correct, and it says, "looking at an enemy before aiming down sight moves the reticle over that enemy".

@bbq_R0ADK1LL: Well, the article didn't specify, maybe I'll see if I can find out.

I do already see the usefulness, and some of the things they do with it in this game seem cool, but using it to aim just seems like taking away a big part of the game. The coordination involved was part of the challenge and fun, and just looking at an enemy doesn't require that. Of course, if you are correct that it doesn't move your gun, then what I'm saying is irrelevant.

Did I understand correctly, that aiming comes down to just looking at enemies? That doesn't seem very fulfilling to me.

@dexda: "But when making money means you have to make garbage products then that is just as bad."

So, just to clarify, the products that sell well are garbage, and games like Guitar Hero Live and Skylanders Superchargers that people don't buy are the ones they should keep making?
