@ggodo: I saw that too... totally weird. It seems like Electrical engineering is one of the last frontier for women. When we learned about Edison, Tesla and the rest, I can't remember any females that were discussed. It's going to be hard for little girls to not see that as an all-boys club when that's their first…

@immafattie: But it's not the latest and greatest with extra-wide base and moar buttons!

@Sabadaba: I just remembered back in the 320x200 DOS 256 color days, when I saw something in gray scale (256 shades of gray), it looked so amazing. We wanted to do things in more color but it wasn't always possible. We finally made our way to 16.7 million colors being the norm and we still stick to monochromatic color…

I'm pretty surprised actually. Granted I speak with limited experience, Resistance never seemed like a series that reveled in its violence.

@quiddity: Well look at job titles as an anecdotal indicator. Almost all job titles that don't have a gender-based variant is assumed to be a male role while, until in recent history, a female role in the same job would have a different or subservient variant.

@Lexyl: That's sad to hear. It's ridiculously unfair too because when a man is aggressive in arguing an idea, it's deemed as such and they are seen in a positive light but when a woman behaves in the same manner, they're called "catty" or labeled as a "bitch". I've seen it happen and worse, it's another woman heading…

@ggodo: Software Engineering in the Consumer Aerospace sector

I understand they're video games but I sometimes wonder if they're just not taking the idea of a nuclear bomb seriously :/

"Mike's Meat Bun"

@Krackato-ATOMIC COLLIDER!: And I've missed all the sales :( The cheapest i see them now are for $150.

I've always wanted one by I refuse to buy one over a hundred dollars and I don't want those cheap lower-end Hori crap either ;_;

@The Magnificent Steiner (Commander of Warstar Poseidon): NO! I'm just someone who finds the lack of female engineers in my field alarming. I have for years. The sad thing is I've worked with a few female engineers through out the years and because of their amazingly high acumen I'm not sure if they had to work twice…

@sirfa: That might cut up the intestinal walls really bad :(

@Semertzides777: Now you're speaking my language. I loved the hell out of G.R.A.W.2

@freedomweasel: I know in adolensese the societal pressures are heavy but I think early childhood is supposed to be the more formative years right? There's less of society and people can dismiss things with kids are just being kids so lets let them experience more then and maybe in the future, if they can make it…

Uncharted of Duty.... is that you?

@Chrystolis: Kinect, to an extent, has that 3DS effect where it's hard to show. You show the game play and people are left with questions. You show the person and people think it just looks silly. You show a person controlling the gameplay and it really does the game a disservice because all that will be noticed is…

@quiddity: I don't know... boy's aren't told as much that they can't do Y when they're young; directly at least. Granted society tries to pressure them when they shift from adolescence to adulthood but you hope by that time one may have built up a sense of identity.

Fathers and mothers need to do more "not-girl things" with their daughters. I believe the idea of what's girlie and whats not is established in early childhood. We buy girls Barbies instead of footballs and complain there's not enough female interest in X field. We did it to them people :(

These sour grape reactions to the opening are depressingly fine examples of cognitive dissonance. Are we so entrenched in our fanboy foxholes that we can't take a joke?
