I don't think harassment can be solved with a simple attitude fix just for employers, this needs to be a hard effort from everyone.

If the murderer/victim is a game developer of note or from a notable studio, absolutely. They've done it multiple times in the past. It's relevant to the games industry.

There is sexism in the gaming. It's fair ground to cover. There's price-gouging in gaming. It's fair ground to cover. There are shitty sequels in gaming. It's fair ground to cover. There is fiction about dragons in gaming. It's fair ground to cover.

yeah. keep burying your head up your bum and ignoring ALL THE WOMEN WHO HAVE PERSONALLY EXPERIENCED THIS because its too uncomfortable for you to be a decent person.

I don't think it helps to assume that people who might be against this story are "probably white males."

I think what you're trying to say is that the article suggests that the behavior is unique to the industry. And I disagree, it doesn't really address other industries at all, simply that this is a problem that needs to be dealt with.

It says everything when it's not just Mercier, but the other women interviewed in this article who have dozens of stories of similar incidents, and some are forbidden to talk about it.

There have already been all those comments.

I would absolutely love to see a picture and short description of yourself before I read another word of your drivel.

This is a gaming blog. This is a gaming reporter and someone who works in the gaming industry. Yes, this stuff happens towards women everywhere. Yes it's a serious problem anywhere it happens. That does not mean this website shouldn't talk about it. This article is focused on the game industry because... it's about…

If it's happening everywhere, then by that very supposition, this says everything about the gaming community and industry. And just as other industries and communities need to battle this behavior in their own respective groups, we too need to do our part in the gaming community.

There's the article.

You seem a bit sensitive to this story being shown. A horny guy apparently has no regard for basic decency, why can't such idiocy be outed as the reprehensible behavior that it is?

Well, it's hard to say. The 360 was actually weaker, but the PS3 was harder to program for. This gen, we have a situation where the XBO is weaker and harder to program for...but not as difficult as the PS3 was by any means. Much if not all of what makes the XBO weirder to code for can (and will, as the gen goes along)…

There's a couple ways to predict it going either way, really. But there's specific reasons I see it shrinking, not growing, over time. One of the biggest things making this happen right now isn't actually the stronger GPU (though that's contributing), but the faster RAM. Smart utilization of the esram gives the XBO…

esram optimization won't impact PS4 performance at all, as it doesn't have any. Games going forward may opt to use DirectX's built in tiled resources without doing the same on the Playstation version because they'd have to build that in from scratch themselves. There's optimization that can and will be done for the…

The PS4 has been definitely more powerful from the get-go.

My Kickstarter project definitely falls into the delayed category :-/ We had a plan, the people, and the schedule, but some big things happened that we couldn't foresee. It's not a good excuse, but we were open and honest with our backers from the moment we saw the schedule slip. Thankfully, our backers were…

Any inside information on the next Nintendo failure is at this point a giant wish list, and even if stolen right off Iwatas desk isn't solid enough to matter
