I normally wouldn't argue with someone over whether they call themselves a feminist or not, because I'm not going to change anyone's mind on that. And I also believe that how someone behaves is more important than the label they choose for themselves. If someone really is advocating for equality, call it a win and

I don't think it makes any sense to abandon a label because there are negative stereotypes attached. It would be like someone refusing to identify as Catholic because of the stereotype of priests molesting little boys and churches covering it up, or refusing to identify as atheist because of fedora-wearing,

Well, some of them are articulating pretty ignorant concepts of what feminism means. Like the implications that it's nothing but complaining and being angry and not actually doing anything. If strong, powerful women are out there in society propagating those stereotypes, don't you think it hurts women who DO choose to

Yeah, pretty steep. But I guess it's a tiny operation and all this stuff is basically hand-made. They only produce 40 custom-ordered items a month. I can understand steep prices and limited quantities in that case.

Yeah, I was thinking christmas gift for a friend, but not a chance at that price.

Playing as the bad guy isn't ironic.

That is seriously awesome. I like the look of the finished products, too. I wanna try my hand at this.

Expensive social programs are always loved by those who understand the long-term benefits of living in a society that can provide security and stability to as many as possible - even the poor and disadvantaged, and are hated by those who don't understand the value of anything that isn't going directly into their own

Yes, when you live in a society you are expected to contribute to it.

Well first off, yes, obviously women are way over-objectified, in media and public life in general. I'm not debating the truth of that.

There was a Microsoft display set up in the mall near me, where you could play with the first Surface. Damn, that stylus felt nice. Great pressure sensitivity. Wish I could afford to splurge on one, to use purely for art-related stuff.

Neuromancer and Wintermute, obviously. Still waiting for one of them to develop sentience, so far no luck.

You should have been sniffing the enemy more. Classic noob mistake.

I don't think they referenced any part of the real world when making this game.

Yeah, what the hell, the shirt is just tigher with no wrinkles. Looks otherwise the same.

Agree about the soundtrack. I'm not really a fan of dance music, but some of the dance remixes of the main theme make amazing jogging music.

That's effing incredible!

Yeah, it was kind of silly. You're trying to clear your sister's name, and you do so by becoming a mass-murderer in the process? If I remember correctly, the game tries to make you feel better about it by making a lot of the enemies private security types who, it's implied, are thugs anyway.

Both types of gameplay were good, in my opinion, but I thought the game often did a bad job of transitioning between the two. It felt like there were a lot of moments where the game is telling me to run, I JUST get up some good speed and momentum, and then it stops me with some vent crawling or ledge climbing.

I love that game, despite it's issues. I love the way it looks, love the atmosphere, love the concepts in the fiction, and the first-person parkour stuff was awesome. There are moments in that game that just feel amazing.
