Gaming has grown a lot over the past 40 years but it's still mostly Macho men (modern example is Gears) and women still have EEE sized tits with a thread covering them. Few female lead characters not used for a sexual symbol or in danger of being raped or in distress or titty Mgee. Jade from Beyond Good and Evil and MIrrors Edge are great example of how to do it right.

Even Samus has been reduced to almost always being in "zero suit", which is basically an attempt to show off her ass and tits.

How often do women take a pose like that for pete sake? :lol: Oh right, anime nerds are supposed to put it in their rooms and oggle her curves.

Not really pissed off, but more disappointed.

Neil Cavuto (Fox News Interviewer): How does it feel to be the last man to walk on the moon?

Eugene Cernan: Horrible.

Last man on the moon: 1972.

This needs to be seen to be believed. I need an ebook for research. Check out the price.

That reminds me of when I was in college. Instead of requiring students to read a book that had become the standard in the field, professors wrote their own and required all of their students to buy it. Most of them also changed a couple minor details here or there each year as well so you could not sell your book back to the bookstore for a portion what you paid at the start of the class year any more than new students could pay a little less for a used one. Buying a new edition for $100+ every year was the only way. It almost felt like a scam.

Free, I'm assuming, since I clicked and it opened in some smooth viewer on the page?

^ It's only the first several chapters, man. And some missing pages in them too.

@Sonikku: What a scam!

don't worry, it took me time to see it as well, so either it's not very obvious or we're both idiots so you're not alone at least :dunno:
