With the giant turd tell tale took on my good faith with Jurassic Park I refuse to ever play one of their games so at least there is a walking dead game for me

Go play a baby game that holds your hand

Seems some have forgotten that a few years ago... they did away with Booth Babes at E3 because of complaints like this.

Then, at the next E3... all the press did was complain that the show floor was boring. That the booths looked empty and uninviting. They then began talking about how the booth babes weren't objectifying women.

And they were all happy the next year when Booth Babes were back.

Seems we've gone full circle again and a lot of the press have forgotten the stupidity from a few years ago.

The stopping the "booth babe" nonsense part was fine and needed there was just many other rules also that it became "boring". You can have all the noise music and whatever but they threw out the good with the "bad".

@GnaTSoL:If a woman wants to wear something like that thats up to them and its fine and awesome. On the other hand they are being paid to do this its not a choice they are not given two outfits and choice between them. Its the same way I feel about say stripping or sex. I love sex when its a mutual choice and its probably the best thing, paying someone to prostitute themselves, that is something that would make me feel very gross. Regardless of morale values or whatever it is definitely something that needs to be separated form the industry.

Its all a bunch of trash from shut ins about bloo bloo I dont want to talk about this it makes me uncomfortable. The "they are ugly" comments are the worst though and the people that posted that should reevaluate their shitty lives.

All that being said, Did you nerds actually read the article??? Patrick is stating that the industry has grown up to the point that at a large semi-closed door professional industry expo you dont need fucking "booth babes". Patrick is essentially saying that the expo should reign in the nonsense to shine a better image on the industry itself. Many games are not marketed at all to girls and women but its a huge market that remains largely untapped, and there are many female gamers or potential gamers a product could be marketed to or at least be made gender neutral. Additionally the booth babe bullshit just isn't needed why should a professional trying to get a hands on of a game to write about have to play it tethered to a woman, that's absolutely insane and disgusting.

You can say what you want about sex sells and everyone needs to one up each other but that doesn't matter and is outside the scope of the argument. The IMPORTANT point Patrick is pointing out here is that a blanket ban on "booth babes" and treating the event as an actual industry expo that it is supposed to be shines a better light on the culture and stereotypes that surround gaming.

The solution couldn't of been actually brute forcing it right? Is there some reason or logic everyone is missing behind it that we can at least work backwards towards?
