Females are rarely treated with the same respect as males in the gaming industry, both in online and real-life interactions. Women working in the world of gaming aren’t taken as seriously as men. What continues to makes things even worse is the prevalent portrayal of females in video games: many are dressed in provocative clothing to accentuate extra-large busts, like the archetypal Lara Croft. Tammy Yap, a video game programmer for six years, says she asked one of her male colleagues (she was the only female) why women were always dressed like Vegas show girls. After all, this might offend some women and drive them away from gaming. The reply she received was: “What difference does it make? Women don’t play games.” Her colleague’s retort serves as a good example of the general attitude of most men when it comes to women gamers.

Unfortunately, female gamers aren’t getting their opinions attended to in the video game world. With so few women working in the industry, the video game market is close to being entirely ruled by men. Without having a female representative making her voice heard in the industry, female gamers won’t find as many games that they’re interested in on the market. Famous video game producer Denise Fulton thinks if more women played video games, then more women would start landing jobs in the industry. The consensus is that they would if more games were available that were more appealing to female players.

Playing video games is still branded as a boyish hobby. Women looking to enter the gaming industry already have it tough, but the rate at which they are finding jobs may stagnate if fellow female gamers aren’t willing to step up. Thankfully, this path has already begun being forged by prominent gaming women such as Morgan Webb and Denise Fulton, and indeed the evidence suggests the number of girls playing games is rising. Perceptions are already changing, and it may be only a matter of time before women’s presence in the game industry better reflects their growing numbers among players.

Gamestop seem to be a company jumping all over the place at the moment. Gamestop has noticed that no one seems to be buying games from your basic game shops, thus they are trying to find other revenue streams. Last week it was leaked that they are working on a Steam competitor and now it has been announced they are working on their own Android gaming tablet! Really.. a Gamestop gaming tablet! No one is going buy that surely.

It has been noted that currently Valve is making more money per employee than the likes of Google or Apple. It is easy to work out how much the publicly traded Google and Apple make per employee, estimating what Valve pulls in is tougher.

Steam is an online video game distribution program owned by Valve; it controls an estimated 50-70% of the $4 billion per year market for downloaded games. Valve’s founder, Gabe Newell, says that the 250-person company brought in “high hundreds of millions of dollars” in 2010. Although, they have not released their financials, over 30 million people using Steam so it’s easy to assume they are doing as well as he says.

Its been reported that the PlayStation Move could be moving to the PC. The PS3 motion controller is expected to become part of a project called Move Server which will see PlayStation Move games being created for the PC which in turn, will allow the Move controller to be used on the PC.

SCEA will be holding a conference this year which will be used to explain what Move Server is all about and from what we understand now, it is being designed to let developers, academics and hobbyists all work with the controller in more unique ways.

Even though we can never compare iPod/iPad games with PlayStation 3 or XBOX, since that GameLoft completed a good game.

The official statement from Taku Imasaki says “We can confirm that Gran Turismo 5 will not be available this November 2nd, but the game’s release will be coming this holiday season.” But with the number of delays this game already had, there’s absolutely no certainty it will be available any time soon.

The reasons, as always, say that they are fixing some bugs about the game to make it more stable. But the GT fans are not happy, at all with this new decision; we can sense the feelings just by looking those comments in the blog post:

• “This is a joke right?”
• “SCEA literally delays SOCOM 4, Little Big Planet 2, and Gran Turismo 5. In return? PlayStation Move.  Not Cool.”
• “Did you guys hire all those ex-Duke Nukem programmers?” (Good one).

This is the new “Hitler Downfall” parody about GT5 being delayed again. Take not that the first parody was created when the game was postponed from 2009 to 2010.

Does anyone is keeping count about the delays on this game? I know I don’t.

You may think “Ok, this is just a loop game where the same characters appear over and over again” but no, this is an adaptive version of the game, which increases the difficulty according to the skills of the player. This game is in fact a project developed for an Expressive Intelligence study.

The game is created in Java (.jar), and you can download it directly from here. Controls: arrows to move, ’s’ to jump, ‘a’ to run.

Here are some of the specs about this game:

• Upon successful completion of a level, the challenge is increased.
• Faster completion times result in larger increases in difficulty.
• Upon death, the difficulty is decreased based on the amount of progress made by the player.
• If the player is close to the goal upon death, then the difficulty is decreased only a small amount.
• A new level is generated when the player either completes a level or fails to complete a level after three deaths.

PSJailBreak is the USB system that we will be able to find and buy with the promise that we can run copied versions of PS3 games. The company who developed PSJailBreak says that “will never break your console” and will support all games.

But Sony simply said that they are not going to allow it. This USB gadget generates an error “8002A227” in the system, which can be detected soon as the PS3 logs in the PlayStation Store. And when this happens, Sony will ban this console (if you remember, Microsoft did same for XBOX consoles which were altered with the same purpose).

For one second you thought it was going to be as simple as connecting a USB drive to your console isn’t?

Lineage II, as several other games, usually involves the gamers into the story making the plot very attractive. But sometimes seems that the story absorbs their players into some kind of addiction, this is what happened to this fellow who decided that this addiction has responsible and there must be some legal actions to execute.

After playing over 20,000 hours to this game, this person accused NCSoft (creators of Lineage) claiming the company was negligent for failing to “warn or instruct plaintiff and other players of Lineage II of its dangerous and defective characteristics, and of the safe and proper method of using the game.”

This “negligent” behavior of the company had the result of “unable to function independently in usual daily activities such as getting up, getting dressed, bathing or communicating with family and friends.” HA!

But that’s not all, the US District also said: “In light of plaintiff’s allegations, the court finds that plaintiff has stated a claim for both negligence and gross negligence”. This means that they are not dismissing the case so far. HAHA!

Bizarre world we are living in, isn’t?

We all know that the mobile market is the most wanted area where all large companies are working with a high intensity right now, and the games development is one of the most important divisions. Android is getting important improvements and we don’t have to say anything about Apple, browse for a few seconds the AppStore and we can find thousands of games available.

Windows Phone 7 is trying to compete in the mobile OS share, but it won’t be easy with Android and Apple (we’ve discussed this earlier with the report about smartphones), which already have control of this share globally.

The new division inside Mobile’s, is called MGS Mobile Gaming. And they are already were looking for professionals; and since they’ve already found it, we can only imagine that this area will be online ASAP. No time to waste.

This is what it seems a leaked image of the eBox:

China’s government announced recently that they will not allow the commercialization of XBOX Kinect device; but as always, people are always looking for a workaround, and the eBox device is appearing.

There are no official announcements, but apparently more news will appear in November and possibly the launch of this product will be on 2011. XBOX games won’t be supported by the eBOX console, but there are currently working 16 professional teams, some of them have developed games for Xbox 360 and Wii, from 8 countries will take part in the development of eBox’s games.

When I see this pic, I cannot avoid thinking about the other Chinese invention this year: The iPed.
