Sexism in Video Games - Is it real, and if so, how can we fix it?

While the majority of E3 has been about games – how they control, what they look like, and how fun they are – there has, unfortunately, been a concern brewing within the bowels of the event, and that concern is the representation of women in video games.

No it's not real... can't fix something that's in people's imagination... it's called seeing something that's not there... some people call that 'Mental Illness'.

I wouldn't say it's not real. Sometimes you'll find that kind of prejudice, whether it be racism, sexism, etc., in some of the most unlikely places. Metroid Other M is one of the few games I've played where I felt the writing was sexist. You could argue Duke Nukem Forever as well, but that was put in place there to be controversial on purpose. And there are some sexist gamers out there, whether they be feminist gamers who hate men or male gamers who think women have no place playing games. It's all a matter of perspective, I think.

Activemessiah4027d ago

It's also happening outside my window as we speak but nobody wants to talk about that.. oh no.. let's focus on the games because they impact on real women a lot worse.

All I'm saying is problem solving starts in real life at home/work/society where women actually suffer... THEN I'm willing to listen about things happening in computers.

randomass1714027d ago

I agree with you there. It has a lot more to do with people than with the games themselves.

ZoidsRaven4027d ago

By getting rid of sexist people, and NOT confusing sexy with sexist.
Just because people like that POS Anita Sarkeesian want you to believe gamers AND gaming are all sexist, doesn't mean it's the truth.

I wonder what ugly women rights activist moaned again this time...

sadfeet4026d ago

The girl from Infamous Second Son is hardly attractive. With that said, I think your holistic vision is moving in the right direction.

Glad, I’m about to downgrade when they raise the price. For me, I don’t really access much or care about the games they have in the library and if I do, it’d be cheaper to just buy them over time rather than stick to some expensive subscription model.

crazyCoconuts9h ago

When you're new to the service you've got an avalanche of games to play. After you catch up, I agree, it's not worth it beyond the Essential tier for me.
That being said, the Essential tier is the best deal in console gaming imo, based on the monthly games you get to keep.

Profchaos3h ago

Yeah same will be downgrading $214 aud is insane and we don't even get the streaming capabilities in Australia which they said would make the top level subscription cheaper.

If i was to just buy the games I actually play that come to the service id be far better off.

Ill keep the essential tier to retain the games ive collected since the ps3 and for mp but I'm not convinced of the premium tiers value any more

victorMaje40m ago

Went back to essential a few months ago. I’m buying more physical and it has helped in finishing more games.

Alos8810h ago

Extra is probably the best value for money right now, Premium doesn't have anything special enough to justify paying the additional imo.

OtterX10h ago

*unless you have a Portal & you catch Premium on discount during Days of Play or Black Friday.

Yea, I really do wish they'd up their effort on Premium titles, but allowing a large catalog of titles that can stream to your Portal without even having to use your PS5 is pretty awesome. We travel about 2 hours to stay with my inlaws from time to time, so it's been pretty killer to only need to take my Portal for that!

andy859h ago

Yup if you have a portal premium is the best tier for sure

jznrpg10h ago

Add some more classics with trophies. Vagrant Story first

OtterX10h ago

Nice choice. I agree!

Jeanne D'Arc was my favorite PS+ catalog title from last year & I Platinumed it!

Eonjay7h ago

I like Ridge Racer, Tekken and Grandia. Add Xenogears, digimon World 3, Classic GTA and ill be happy

jznrpg5h ago

Jeanne D’Arc was great!

@Eonjay there is a Grandia collection available for PS4, I’m not sure if it’s been on plus already or not

darthv7210h ago

cloud streaming to the portal, without using the ps5, is the selling point of premium to me.

Obscure_Observer9h ago

If the consumers are happy, Sony is even happier.

It is what it is.
