No problem with that. There's someone I play Left 4 Dead a lot with. She loves all that gore.

"Or maybe those chicks were buying games for their male companions."

Nah, they are looking for FUTURE companions. They've seen Project Natal and they understand how it's going to make those nerdy gamers all buff here in the next couple of years. {big grin that's going to get punched pretty soon - but that's OK because I deserve it after that sexist remark}

I am 15 and went on my work experience a few months ago and as a big gaming fan I wanted to have something to do with it. Codemasters wouldnt take me (typical) and neither would activision (once again typical) so the only place left to go was the end of the chain a game shop =P and it was fun and I learnt loads (DONT PUT THE GAMES IN RANDOM PLACES ITS SOOOOO ANNOYING PUTTING EM BACK!!!) BUT I was expecting to see hundreds of men pour in to buy games but that wasnt the case at all if anything its not only gender but also in age (im serious) some people were like 12, some 60 but only about 15 customers I helped were buying for children or grandchildren and I even helped a woman about 50 look for a nintendo game she wanted so I believe that gaming isnt defined by gender or age just everyones unique sense of taste =P

As the medic always says protect the heavy infront of you and he will protect you =)

First of all let me say my gf plays alot of games too. She is in love with fallout and we have played tf2 and l4d together. Secondly im surprised there were so many positive posts advocating girls playing games cause usually when something like this is posted on any other gaming forum it becomes a flood of sexist comments.

I guess the real question is hard core gaming.
Hard core = css. Not hard core = l4d, wow, prototype, NES, sega genesis, dreamcast, etc.

In the time that i played css (about a year) I saw a total of 4 girls, only 2 were actually good though.. Better than me good :D
