Wow. This taken a strong turn of events in terms of topic. While on the subject. If people don't like it, they really shouldn't look at it. We shouldn't blame all the women in the world. Not all of them are bad people. I'm all game for all equality, but there should be a fine line on the actions that extremists(like the ones who got GTA banned in down under). People in this world really need to look at the fact that not everything is real, which includes video games. For granted. Its got the 18+ rating on the cover for crying out loud, so that should be an obvious hint that it ain't a kids game.
If there was a gaming studio(or any gaming studio) that made straight up female leads with good gaming. Without having to go out of their way just to make it appealing for 'just boys'. Maybe there would be less of a predicament for all of those women who complain about the lack of 'positive' things for females for gaming. Besides. Anita ain't always right. Like The Antagonist pointed out. If a grown woman decides to become a stripper, dancers, etc. Its their choice on what they plan on doing to make money. Even if the public community thinks it sets a 'bad example'. Its their loss. I even spoken to a few female friends of mine off of the boards. I spoke about GTA, and all they said about this was its a load of BS. Big time.

I mean come on, we all gotta agree that it's retarded and everyone who signed that petition must be a bit loco in the ol' coco.The world is filled with nutty people Mass. I wouldn't be surprised if most of the people who signed that petition are either the same person, or people who are just shooting down Rockstar(along with their games) for years now.
