Nuns in latex fetish suits are a male sexual fantasy. Buff, gruff-voiced etc men are a male power fantasy first and foremost. Arguing that the existance of these male stereotypes is a 'double standard' of sexist is completely missing the dynamics at play here. Characters like the gears of war cast, or kratos are…

Muskets are actually quite accurate against formations. I would again look up some youtube videos of this to get a basic feel of how it worked, but suffice to say, there is a reason that guns eclipsed crossbows and longbows in Europe-musket innaccuracy and short-range is a myth. There were various fire drills to get…

Sony has plenty of good characters. Their problem is that they tend to drop defining series like hot potatoes from one console gen to the next. Daniel Fortesque, Croc, Crash Bandicoot, Summoner, Breath of Fire etc. They have lots of good characters and games, but they never franchise them to the same extent that…

You don't seem to find it ironic that you are accusing other people of being overly-sensitive, whiny children, whom no-one is listening to, and then over-reacting, rolling out the cusswords, writing a multi-paragraph rant, and obsessively replying to every reply like the author murdered your baby? I think you should…

Well said. It's amazing how many people on this site can't seem to grasp this simple concept.

Well, I woud argue that there is a definate purpose for it-they were trying to sell the game based on the laziest, most insulting manner possible, through hypersexulization and violence. *That* was the purpose of the traielr. Not to show off new features, or explain any plot developments between games, just trying to…

It was tacky and objectifying. It was a blatently trying to sell to the lowest common denominator with sex+guns. it's insulting to men to wave a fetish nun in front of them and expect them to go drooling over it immediately like some kind of pavlovian response, and degrading to women for reasons that should be…

47 has killed women before, and anyone who has played the game would know as much. That's not the problem. No one is saying that this is offensive. It's the comically out of place sexual objectification of the nuns that people are complaining about it.

Nice to know I am not the only one who watched that show/

'Half-British' is splitting hairs. If you want to argue that way, the colonists were British as well-since they were British Subjects. The 'You fight people on both sides' thing would be nice, and they have claimed as such, but the problem is that they haven't shown any of this so far-just Connor slaughtering scores…

I know a lot of people don't like 4th edition (neither do I), but honestly the thing that puts me off future D&D games the most is what 4th edition did to the Forgotten Realms. Lets be honest here, most of the D&D games that have come out have been set in the Forgotten Realms setting. 4th edition changed the setting…

Never played Morrowind?

Don't worry, I'm sure Connor will get to kill lots of Loyalists too. Those count as colonists, right?

A Brown Bess Musket can be reloaded in 20 seconds. 60+ seconds I could see, if they had never used a gun before, but the British had some of the best soldiers in the world at this point. There's a youtube video of a reinactor firing three shots in 46 seconds. Also, there were plenty of guys tying him up in melee…

That's fine and dandy, but they are certainly pressing the 'kill redcoats' angle over 'kill Templars, regardless of allegiance' angle. The bald eagle, patriotic word dropping, and the fact that he seems to overwhelmingly kill redcoats to the exclusion of all else would seem to indicate that the game is going to be…

You may have missed the Bald Eagle that the camera followed for about half the trailer. Also, you may have missed word drops like 'Liberty' and 'Justice' and the fact that he charged the entire British army at the battle of bunker hill and cut down half a dozen british soldiers "The Patriot" style. The *real* reason…

How incredibly racist. Your ignorance of Indian military history is amazing. The Indian subcontinent has always been a crucible of constant warfare from the moment the Aryan tribes first migrated there thousands of years ago. India has always been rife with conflict-the sort of conflict that would be ideal for any…

Well if they are doing a game about muslim countries, it would make sense to include India, Pakistan, Iran, and Indonesia-considering how much of the modern muslim population resides there. You are correct however, South Asia in general is massively underrepresented in the media, especially video games despite its…

Fetish nun latex bodysuits with machineguns and rocket launchers are supposed to blend in at a motel parking lot? There is absolutely nothing about those outfits that is subtle, and they are blatently a grab at sex appeal. While the Hitman games have had plenty of skimpy outfits in the past, they at least justified…

Care to explain where you got this insider information? Usually when most of the people who voice their opinion on a subject have a negitive impression of it, it is representative of the larger population. This is why we have polling.
