Hey guys, I'm in a Women Studies class and I have to do a presentation on video games and how they relate to the idea of Women Studies. It's pretty open ended. I mainly have to talk about how women are depicted in the industry and the games - either positively or negatively. Preferrably I would try and show both sides of the coin during my presentation. I was hoping you guys could help me with finding articles and examples online. These would either be of cases of sexism towards gender (women are always big boobed or whatever) but also maybe some articles where we see the rate of female gamers or organisations helping towards this. I'm literally just asking for links that I can go and read through to put something together so if you've come across something then please let me know. P.S. The class isn't just about advocating for women so if you come across something sexist towards guys and what not please let me know too.

I just got into the show after PAX this year, so I missed the Kickstarter. Is there still a way to get the shirt or was that a backer exclusive? Any plans on selling any merch in the future? Anyone know?

Thanks so much guys!

Thanks a lot!

Hey guys, usually just a lurker here, I'm moving to SF for a few months at the start of next year (January) and was wondering if you guys had some ideas for things I should check out while I'm there? Does anyone know of cool events that happen in January-March over there? Cool food place I should look up? Anything and everything would be great. Doesn't have to be video game related. Also, I'm currently looking for housing arrangements for the time I'll be there. Does anyone know of some good websites or places I can get some info? Preferably on the cheaper end, stuff like student accommodations and what not? Also, I literally wont know anyone when I'm there so if people would like to do some kind of a meet up so I can meet some people that would be cool.

I found that the iOS app was garbage and that kind of turned me off of the whole thing.

I podcast with a couple other guys (Kraznor, a member of the forums here, is one of them) on a show called Top Down Perspective. It's a weekly video game podcast where we discuss anything game related going on at the moment that deserves some conversations. Always looking for more feedback and user interaction! We're also on iTunes if you'd rather just search us up there to have a listen. Thanks guys!
