I'm not white nor am I a man and I don't need a character that fits my exact sex and race to be able to identify with them. After all, that would be sexist/racist of me. As for representation - when there are more minorities than white heterosexual men buying and developing games, we'll see more of them.

As a lady-gamer (yes i am game yes i play girl) it might be nice to play a few more ladies! Tomb raider and lolly pop chainsaw get a bit drab (TR is great tho) I don't mind the males, but I can understand that the largest market for games are boys, and to appease the market making male characters is the easiest and

Not every game is a real life simulator. Sometimes companies just want to tell a narrative through the eyes of a male. Just because not every minority is represented in the game doesn't make it racist or sexist. Social issues should never take precedent over artistic vision. If you think that way, you're ignoring the

Oh spare us. Get off the white knight express. Not having a female playable character in an Assassin's Creed game is a NON ISSUE, end of story.

This is a mountain made from a molehill. Video games were better when people stooped trying to inject their social commentaries into them and just enjoyed the game. Not everything is an attack on gender, race, or sexual preferences and and people are becoming overly sensitive to a point where it's almost silly.

Am I missing why Kotaku is trying to tell me that is a huge deal? Is this really such a civil rights problem that in the kind of story that Assassin's Creed runs with in the times of history that they go through, that there isn't a major female protagonist? You don't need to shoehorn every group into something for

What's with all the Social Justice Warriors picking fights with Ubisoft? This is like the absolute LAST game developer that the SJW/feminist crowd should ever be nitpicking and looking for something to bitch about. There are plenty of real issues concerning women found elsewhere.

no... No it doesn't. Look! I have an opinion too! =) if you aren't interested in a game just don't buy it!

except for paying a bunch of money for it

Have you played MK9 that game made MK relevant again. It was really good.

Mario would work just fine, as long as it's not in first person. You don't need to make every VR game first person. What matters is freedom to look around.

You know. . . Mario and Starfox may not fit great. . . . But there's a space bounty hunting woman of action that, uh, needs some action.

I think the most amazing thing about the feedback system was that they didn't need to provide an achievement (I think they didn't) to get people to do it.

I very much like the way they referenced the "feedback" system in ACIV, because I used that after every mission for just this reason. Good to see it worked!

annddddd it's taken down. Dammit I've been waiting all day for this.

I like teasers like this that aren't so obvious.

Just wait till Smash hits the shelves. You will witness the ressurection.

I keep seeing the main character from one piece be referred to as 'Ruffy' on the internet instead of 'Luffy'. Is this how they translated the name for the American release of the manga or TV show or something?

Rainbow Road is in Mortal Kombat 8?
