What is it with Konami and the way they represent women in their games?

I’m likely to be on my own here, but I was a little disappointed with the end of the ‘MGS2’ demo that came with ‘Z.O.E.’ I understand pregnant women are a reality – even in the armed forces. But do I want to shoot such images? It’s a little bizarre. The original ‘Metal Gear’ contained patronising dialogue between Snakie and the rest of the female characters. And ‘Ring of Red’ (which I’m kinda enjoying) displays a terrible respect for the female form.

Look, you buy a game like ‘Dead or Alive 2’ and you get what you see. It does exactly what it says on the tin.


This is /not/ a GaD entry…
I’m just having a rant!

Ali updates the list, and at the moment it's done the day after, as I expect they're pretty busy. Expect yesterday's tomorrow (?!) by about 10am...

Why does Tony add GAD and FAD wins so late now? By the time he's done, I have to go to my room.

does that disturb you?

What about the transexual, crossdressing bloke in Code: Veronica, who's obsession with his sister (who has come back from the grave), has made him really, really odd... hmmm

That guy from ‘Shadows’ was a right git!
To get full points you’ve got to freak out that Dana woman, mess up her life…
And try and get off with your own daughter!
Freaky timeline madness – Konami style :)
