[QUOTE="DrJimmyRustles"][QUOTE="CyborgCayouche"]And it pretty much proves how misogynistic you people are anyways. http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Feminist_internet_laws#Lewis.27_LawSnailgoopLook, everyone! See just how desperately feminists will try and stretch logic to fit their narrative of "DA EVIL BOOGIEMAN OUT TO GIT MEEEE!" All your post proved was just how hell-bent social justice warriors are on injecting politics into a medium that neither wants, nor needs it, and shows that everyone whose been paranoid about your ilk's presence in this genre of entertainment is absolutely justified in being so. It's clear will stop at nothing to destroy this industry out of some misguided attempt at "getting even" with the people you hate: Namely, anyone who doesn't hold the same political/social beliefs you do. The sooner game devs ignore you (which they should, as your kind accounts for maybe .05% of game sales and almost no female gamers share your beliefs), the better off the industry will be. And really, your internet 'law'? It laughably boils down to "Any criticism of my viewpoints is automatically invalid because I say so!" In other words, it will not be taken seriously by anyone, ever. You're an idiot. Female gamers play these games. We want to enjoy them too.
And you're any better for calling him/her an idiot?
In my opinion, he's right. Grand Theft Auto is a SATIRE. Since when has it ever been an accurate portrayal of ANYTHING realistic, minus in-game physics and AI?
This has happened with every Grand Theft Auto as far as I can remember. Each time a new one comes out, there's a big controversity.
But do you know WHY any sort of boycott falls flat on it's face? Because GTA is a video game. A video game known for edginess. And taking off points in a review for something the genre is known for is ludicrous.
I understand the complaints coming from the misogynist point of view, but you have to realize that this is not reality. Grand Theft Auto is the Quentin Tarentino (I hope I spelled that right) of video games. It is not gender bias. It's a video game that throws political correctness out the window in favor of, well, a good gaming experience. Don't take it so seriously.
And, please, all in all, leave it alone.
By the way, if you're complaining about the game being misogynist, then why are you not complaining about it being racist, cruel, or overly violent? Or do you just not care about anything that isn't in your agenda?
