Alas, I have but one star to give you.

Because they're magically created by scripts and no human interaction?
Because these were people who work in and with the gaming industry? Also the tech industry in general doesn't have the greatest track record for its treatment and retention of female employees. Have you ever heard of SIGGRAPH? Maybe you should look it up.
Jennifer Hepler, Jade Raymond, Kim Correa, Brianna Wu, Nicole Tanner, Jessica Chobot, and the list goes on and on and fucking on. I attended SIGGRAPH this year as a student volunteer, there were a lot of other young women there doing the same thing as me, most of them looking to get into the gaming and film industries…
Really? Having played both DA:O and Far Cry 3 to death, I can't recall a single incident of men being brutalized in a sexual fashion. Not one. Care to show me an example?
BioWare has been making multiplayer games for decades, kid.
You seem to think "programmer" is a catchall term for game developers. Not all people working on the game can program, and not all programmers can do the art-side of it.
The team working on the multiplayer had nothing to do with the single-player. I don't think you understand how game development works. The Tali face reveal and import bug would not have been the department of those working on the MP, they're completely separate categories.
I'm squarely in the "why the fuck is this news?" camp. This entire situation is stupid, and the conspiracy theorists ascribe far too much motive and intelligence to an emotionally immature person whose poor relationship choices are none of our business.
So she's an asshole, so what? I don't know her, I don't want to play her games, and who she sleeps with is none of my business. You all are making her out to be some kind of manipulative genius who is bringing the gaming community to its knees, when in reality she's just a person who did some stupid crap with other…
I was going to say that I can't believe the absolute level of paranoid insanity that these conspiracy theorists have cooked up, but sadly, I can actually believe it. This is the level of stupid, childish and demeaning bullshit I've come to expect from the manchildren of the gaming community, and I'm getting really…
They're pretty much all confirmed to be true, the only question is if Grayson gave favourable coverage in return for the sex.
Ugh, that video again. The guy's complaint boils down to "I don't like reading about social problems that don't directly affect me, gaming journalism is corrupt, wah wah wah." Give me a break.
Yeah, there was way more backlash against SimCity doing the exact same fucking thing. People love to give Blizzard a pass. I get it, they're a big part of all of our childhoods, it doesn't mean they didn't straight screw the pooch on this one.
I've found that Wal-Mart (in Canada at least) is failing miserably in the plus-size area as well. One small square of stuff, your choice of 3 different pairs of pants, some god awful dresses, or ugly shirts.
There's a local company here that makes natural poptarts, they're fucking amazing. Saskatoon berry poptart? Don't mind if I doooo~
You don't really "take" cannabis. It's not a hit of acid. You ingest it or you inhale it.
So... an extra scene of Earth being a little damaged, pretty damaged, or completely wiped out is what you're clamouring for? Wow.
I'm actually okay with this because babies and toddlers are the most annoying part of the Sims games.
