Women Working in Games: G4's Morgan Webb Talks X-Play and Being a Pin-Up

MTV Multiplayer interviews G4's Morgan Webb. She talks about posing for Maxim, Jade Raymond, and why the world doesn't really need more women playing games…

MTV Multiplayer: Why do you think that the gaming press and gamers in general focus on women the way they do?

Morgan Webb: Because boys like girls, straight up. Because Nerd #14 getting hired at Kotaku; not a story. Hot chick? Story. You talk to her about why they're a woman in the gaming industry. Guys all think, "Wow, wouldn't it be great if there were more? Even though she'd veto my triple-X busted woman that I want to put in this video game." [laughs]

Good interview. I love Morgan's 'take-no-crap' attitude.

"Webb: I do not read fan e-mail because 0.1 percent of people ruin it for everybody, and I don’t read forums because 0.1 percent of people ruin it for everybody. And it would be really great if I could go on a forum and talk to people who like the show and talk about games, but I can’t because there’s some 14 year-old jerk somewhere who just wants to be an idiot and try and get attention."

Given the insane rantings of the multitude of Sony fanatics on these pages, it's far more than 0.1%

"Ahhhh ignorance is bliss...."

It also goes hand in hand with being a Sony fanatic.

Lol, I sometimes wonder why these people make so many accounts to trash talk a system or it's fans instead of playing games, it does make you laugh though.

WilliamRLBaker5979d ago

maybe ask a girl that isn't dog ugly like morgan..

Phalken_Six5979d ago

I totally agree with ya bro! lol Now why the hell could they give it to Olivia Munn instead?? Thats it.... the world is ending. Am I right? Because it is CLEAR that Olivia would deffinitley pose for Maxim and CLEARLY she is smoking-lava-eating-your-skin- HOT than that chihuahua faced morgan. No offence to her fans but i just think olivia should be the girl. *sploooooge!* j/k X]

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
