another interesting question: why is it that the vast majority of
computer games are obviously "male"? why is it that so few games
have any appeal at all to girls? apart from the serious fact that this means
one entry point less for females to the world of computers, can't the idiots
making games see that they miss a lot of bucks by only making hack'n'slash
software for testosterone-packed young males? i mean, face it, there's
a huge market out there! half the population, yet to be drawn into the world of
computer games! aren't the creators of games interested in this huge,
yet unexploited market segment?! ;-)
have a nice day :-)
