Fox News - Video Game's 'Capture the Babe' Mode Has Players Slapping Women - Polidicks

[QUOTE=imasillypiggy;28842401]Duke nukem is intentionally sexist which makes it not offensive.[/QUOTE] I wouldn't say not offensive but fox is really overreacting to it

[QUOTE=Mikesword221;28830817]I don't think gamers have said anything like that?[/QUOTE] Pretty sure that gamers have the most to gain from something like this.

I was expecting this sooooo much

Pffft, like fox news can stop me, I've already pre order the balls of steel edition with the bust of Duke Nukem himself.

unnecessary attention for duke nukem forever.

Capture the Babe sounds awesome, probably the first game in a while that I'll buy right as it releases.

Oh I was wondering when they'd get here. now begins the over-blown sensationalism.

[QUOTE=Political Gamer;28830790]"These depictions of women are extremely harmful, especially to young women," she added. [/QUOTE] Yeah sure, a game that will be played almost exclusively by males will be harmful to young women! Why the fuck aren't you focusing on all the shit that gives young women anorexia? Fuck you Jamia Wilson.

fuck :foxnews:

[QUOTE=imasillypiggy;28832063]Gear box better not take this out. This isnt going to hurt anyone because no one takes duke nukem seriously.

Actually I'm not sure you need to verify your age for the uranium.

Capture the babe... How is this different from the south again? Oh, Right... Shotguns and cowboy hats are an extra in the south...

[QUOTE=TH89;28830981]Because Fox totally cares about sexism[/QUOTE] No, but god cares(apparently).

Thanks, Fox! I now have another reason to buy the game!

The whole idea of duke nukem is that it takes the piss out of all the over sized one man armies that are seen in a lot of action films. The games just making fun of something that's been seen in films a thousand times over. Yet because this is a game it gets instantly demonised.

All the more reason to buy this game.

Who else saw this coming? This game is gonna be a first day buy for me. Don't give two shits about how Fox is butt hurt over this. On the other hand, hooray for free advertisement! :D

[QUOTE=imasillypiggy;28841437]I played rated m games since I was 4. It never messed me up.[/QUOTE] I dunno your spelling and grammar has been pretty consistently awful.

seeing a prostitute or stripper in real life probably isn't "good" for young women by their standards, but I don't see a holy crusade to stamp out strippers. Cigarettes are bad for youth too. So are movies with reckless driving, shooting or general incivility. We should ban everything.

I think everyone knew this was coming. But now I want it even more. Thanks Fox! [quote][b]Following the what-were-they-thinking response shared across the gaming community[/b], Gearbox announced Thursday yet another delay to the overdue game's release. Duke Nukem Forever, which had been slated for release May 3, is now scheduled for June 14. The company did not say whether the delay was related to the controversy. [/quote] Oh Fox...
