Cue the "I'm sick and tired of Kotaku pointing out blatant misogyny in the things I like! Why won't they just let me play my games and nurture my contempt of women in peace?" crowd in 3... 2... 1...

I'm an Iranian and I can tell you all that 99% of people here in Iran don't have any problems with these outfits at all and find this news completely ridiculous. But unfortunately it's that 1% (Governments) who make the rules.

Yup. It's just a game. Weirdly, I like my games to make internal sense. Something to do with immersion.

Also, I'm kinda tired of game girls looking like they were designed by horny 14-year-olds. Couldn't we at least graduate to them looking like they were designed by horny 24-year-olds? At least then we'd have a…

Sounds cool. But god damn it, that armor. I mean, really, I get it - sexy women are fantastic. I'm a hot-blooded heterosexual male in my mid-20s. I really, really like women in skimpy clothing. Especially when they're in close proximity to me. What can I say?

But for fuck's sake, YOU DO NOT GO INTO COMBAT EXPOSING THE…

"There I was just minding my business looking at babes on FB..."

...and it's nothing at all wrong with that. They're usually pretty sweet.

Personally, I think it would be ruined. The game isn't meant to be "fun". It's meant to entertain you, yes. But not to the point where you're laughing it up and treating it like a multiplayer pastime.

Demon's Souls, and Dark Souls as an extention, seems to be built around the feeling of isolation, the atmosphere and…

Lulu is most definitely not a tsundere.

I wouldn't call Lulu tsundere.

This is clearly an homage to Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Sure, I expect a few days of wait for a response. But the fact that it took over 2 weeks and media coverage is terrible.

Protip: if your response to this kind of message is "I don't see why she didn't just put him on ignore", you're vastly missing the point.

.. Are you kidding me? That's like saying you can just "delete" someone when they insult you in person. Yeah, shit happens, people say mean stuff, but they shouldn't get off scot-free because they say such things. They need to be punished, and it's a shame that Microsoft took such a long time to do that.

I find it more hilarious that there are hardcore SSSB tournaments at all. It's a party game.

That's the difference between people who play fighting games and people who play FPSs.

It's all about the competitive scene.

Actually the is nothing stopping them from releasing an update with a new ToS. It happens all the time. At that point, you either agree to the anal pounding, or you can never play your console online again.

They hired her for official marketing yes after the game was released because of her cosplay, not to design her. Whether or not this was done on their request/payroll is entirely unknown for the moment.

Cosplay, not awesome?

Except those images aren't the norm — those kinds of images aren't plastered all over magazines, TV shows and ads, etc. They certainly exist, and they definitely exemplify what sexualizing a male looks like, but they most certainly aren't the norm for how men are portrayed to most consumers of media.

It is great that…
