    No.

    Just no.

    Aquaman isn't a team player. He even LEFT the frickin' Justice League because of their morals. They went at WAR with Aquaman (And Aquaman WON) at one point.

    If anything I think Aquaman would be an anti-hero in the Marvel universe.

    So apparently Anita Sarkeesian thinks Borderlands 2 is one of many games that "disempowers women". ...Even though ALL women in that game are badasses.


    Seems legit.

    I hate feminists. They act like men just want to suppress women.

    Oh boy....Anita...

    There's a reason why I'm really anxious to play The Last of Us.

    [​IMG]

    The developers had to fight the publishers because the publishers didn't want the female character, Ellie, to be in the foreground...or even on the front of the box at all. If what my impressions of the game have led me to believe, Ellie could be as awesome as Elizabeth was in Bioshock Infinite.

    Erm... Yeah. That. Them. Oh, wait a minute. YOU'RE A WOMEN! YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS, 'CAUSE I'M A MAN.

    DISCLAIMER: That was a joke. I don't actually think this. Calm down.

    I AM THREE WOMEN. MEN OPRESS ME.

    Seriously though, Zeph. The publishers didn't want the character on the cover? And this was because of her gender? Now that's... Kinda... Sorta... Cartoonishly sexist.

    Same thing happened with Bioshock Infinite! Elizabeth was pushed to the back, while Booker got his generic pose plastered on the front! >.<

    And yes, very much this.

    Luckily there are plenty of not-sexist media we can happily consume!

    At least Ellie made it to the foreground. And not even with a ~*sexy pose*~. That's always nice. Let's pay the people who do it right. That's probably more productive than badly thought out youtube videos, anyway.

    And Narrow, show us your kitty now!

    It was weird seeing Samus' face change in every Prime game.

    [​IMG]

    Prime 1 is still my favorite look for Samus.

    That may be because she's like 14 in the game. xD

    Still, I wouldn't put it past stupid publishers....
