Tim did you see Mark Millar post calling for execution of LHC scientists? He’s a douche-nozzle. http://forums.millarworld.tv/index.php?showtopic=83636

Tim, I think we’ve got to think economically on this issue. Just think of all the game programmers and animators that might lose their jobs if this facet of game design is removed!

Jokes aside, I definitely play games and read for the story. Also, I have been reading more comics! Watchmen is the first graphic novel I’ve finished…ever (it’s also the first one I’ve read). I mean I’ve read “indie” comics and other more cartoony books, but I’ve never read a book that was drawn and written in a classic comic style. I’m about halfway through “Y The Last Man” now. Both those have an element of sexuality in them but it lends more to development of character and plot rather than exploitation.

However, I don’t really look at the drawings too much… so maybe I missed a few things while I was reading them.

In my female perspective, I kind of say bring it on! I sort of love bouncey boobs in video games, they’re redonk and obviously unrealistic, but there’s something about it that I don’t mind. It might be the part of me that was like “HELLZ YES, SENIOR PROJECT WITH SEX IN IT”, but I think it’s also the fact that if there’s absolutely no sexuality in a game/book/movie/tevs I don’t connect to it as much? Because, srs, there is sex everywhere.
