Yeah, whats a gamer by definition? If you just mean they casually play games, then sure, the female/male ratios about 40/60 (go IOS)

The only "official" survey I could find said over 40% are female. The rest seem to be biased in some way, only taking statistics from a certain genre or platform. I thought it was also hilarious that someone took Xbox LIVE as the official representation of the gaming world, even though anyone smart avoids Xbox LIVE like the plague.
Also, what do you mean by "casually play games"? Do you mean "only plays for 2 hours or less a day"? Because I considered my mom to be a gamer, and she played all sorts of games, but she was usually too busy to play more than an hour at a time. Do you mean "only plays one game to the exclusion of all others? Because the only time my dad plays games anymore is when he's playing a single MMO with his friends. Do you mean "only plays casual/mobile games"? Because my best friend pretty much only has a Wii with party games and an iPod touch nowadays, and only plays games for those platforms. I don't think we can exclude people, just because they don't fall into our "definition" of gamer. If someone wants to call themselves a gamer, let them. If someone still falls into that definition of gamer, and doesn't want to be called one, that's fine too. It's not some exclusive club that has a ton of requirements to join, and you're not in for life once you make it in.

Yes, laugh at the ending, ignore the awesomeness. I chose blow up the reapers and it was great even before the shitty patch.

I seem to be the only person that, 1: Beat the game for the first time after the patch came out, and 2: actually liked the ending.

I have not heard of this person until now and have only watched 20 seconds of their gaming newz video thing on their channel and I already like them. She seems cool. Also totally adorkable in a way that makes my soul squeal just a bit. But mostly cool. Watching further into the video and she obviously knows what she's talking about. Yeah. new channel to watch. Sweet, more time wasting ho!

I really like her because it doesn't ever feel like she's trying to fake anything. She just seems to love being her own weird self and I really respect that. She's also completely adorable and tiny. As in 4'10" tiny.

I was never able to watch shows in a serialized format as a kid. For one, I usually ended up watching reruns of shows because I was usually busy with schoolwork and whatnot, (My parents had a strict "no free time until your homework is done" policy, which kind of makes me wonder how I ended up as such a procrastinator) and when I was able to catch new episodes, I wasn't caught up enough to understand what was going on. I mainly watched shows like Spongebob and Invader Zim, where each episode had its own contained plot that didn't really require much backstory to understand.

The original show is pretty good! I mean, I could be better, but the movie also shows us that it could be much, much worse.

The world through the eyes of M. Night Shymalan, ladies and gentlemen.

I still haven't actually watched any of his movies... Any of them worth it?

Yes. Unbreakable. That's pretty much the only movie of his I actually managed to sit through, and it was not bad. Then again, I still haven't seen Devil, so as far as I know it might be good.

Playing KotOR again for the first time in years. I almost forgot how much I love T3.

Examine the rest of the crime scene more closely, make sure I haven't missed anything.

There are also maple trees, lumberjacks, beavers, and an excellent socialized medicine system that, like in many industrialized nations, provides free health care without ruining taxpayers or impoverishing doctors. Canadians evidently have an average life expectancy 3 years higher than Americans.

Should I point out that Australians have a life expectancy one year longer than Canadians? Still not as good as the Japanese though.

Except the Japanese are slowly dying out due to low birth rates, and a large fraction of the population is too old to work...

Let's go investigate a murder!
Head over to the scene of the crime and assess the situation.
