I'm not a girl, but I want like definitely to partecipate to this poll.
Why don't? I think I can just express a better opinion than my girl of which game she could like. As she doesn't use to play my beloved psp. But what do I love more? Eeeeer... I don't know.
BTW, FIRST!
are you seriously implying that you have a better idea of what your girlfriend is thinking than she herself? Just because she doesn't use to play the PSP doesn't mean she can't form her own opinion of the games
grammer check !
take off your boobs and show me your clothes
Bring on your CoH/CoV toon, I dont care which you choose, I'll be more then happy to WHOOP DAT A**!!!! AND to make it worse....on my Troller! LMAO
WAIT A SECOND ISN'T THIS SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT VIDEO GAMES, LETS GET BACK TO THE REAL ISSUE WHICH GAME RULES. GO ARGUE ON ANOTHER FORUM. PLEASE!
You're worse than the guy who insulted all the real women in my supergroup on CoH because "there are no women on these games" called us men...
I run two very feminist leaning SG's in CoH, they are all women toons, though because of the content of the RP (one is anti-men completely (villain side, Sapphite League), and the other is a school for abused women (hero side, Sapphite Institute)), we tend to attract mostly real women gamers.... and some guy sazid one of my girls "was the name of a porno flick", and kept insulting us... on a team made up of 4 of us, and me running it. We kicked him off the team and added him to the people our women should not team with.
I don't do polls but I do play games. WOW and COH/COV. and I am a guy. There are some guys who can woop me and some guys who can't some woman who can and some who can't this cheauvinstic mentality went out like yesterdays dirty laundry. You want to see what a woman can do join the military and go to iraq and see what a woman can do. If you don't get your back sided kicked by one. now back to what this forum is about games. COH is the best by far in my opinion.
I'm seriously upset over the fact that gamergrrls all over will have to take even more time away from washing dishes and making dinners to vote on this retarded poll.
You have a vagina and play games, good for you. How about you iron my shirt?
Totally agree, I don't give a *****. Welcome to a hobby that you *****es barely embraced before. Playing video games doesn't make you cool, so quit trying to play it off like it does.
Wow, where did you buy your time machine? Can I go back and visit Ward, June, Wally, and the Beav too?
Yeesh man, when was the last time anyone expected the woman to do all that stuff? I've been happily married over 15 years, and my husband and I share ALL the household stuff depending on who has the time to do it. So yeah, when he's working more hours than me, I take care of things, but when I'm working to support him, you bet he pulls his own weight.
We also game together, have the longest running relationship of anyone we know, and have scare-the-neighbours great s*x together.
If you seriously think that women want you so bad they're willing to be your housemaid/h**ker just to bask in your manly glow, then you are heading for extinction, my troglodytic pal!
How about you think how you got here for a minute? I hate a**holes. Come find me in CoV and see how well some of the "girls" can kick your cheauvinstic a**.
how bought u climb out from underneith that rock u freakin caveman and realize that we as woman are not only equal to u in this day n age but rule u.and as far as gamin goes cox chics rule. in BTW iron ur own freakin shirt n bring me my beer!!!!!
I cant beleive there are still "men" like you out there. Women rule..we do not bow to the whims of men anymore. Im a gamer..played EQ for 6, was a GL for 2 of those 6 yrs, now Im an officer in a supergroup in CoH. All my toons are female...because *gasp* Im a female in RL. I have a 13 yr old son who thinks mom rocks cuz of that fact alone. Its men like you that give real men a bad name. Go back home to mommy, ya whiney a**, sexist, p.o.s.. Gamers everywhere, no matter the sex, would be better off w/o small minded "men" like you
Is this guy supposed to be funny? Or is sexism still the norm in society? Who knows!
"Totally agree, I don't give a *****. Welcome to a hobby that you *****es barely embraced before. Playing video games doesn't make you cool, so quit trying to play it off like it does. "
Uh yah right, I was in the arcades in the early 80's probably before you were born buddy, playing the classics til the sun went down. Just cuz I'm a girl doesn't mean a thing, I've enjoyed video games since I can remember and I know few other girls IRL that enjoy them as much as I do (except my sister, must be in our blood) so step off your chauvenistic soap box and get over it....being an a** doesn't make you cool either. :P
Why hello, you malcontent abused child. Take your hate and burn in it. :) Because it seriously doesn't bother anyone but you. +P
Be honest. You don't have anyone except your lonesome right hand to do your ironing... Which is ironic because it's probably the only thing that gives you any action! XD
So go ahead, say everything ugly you like... +3 I support my girlfriend and any games she plays and your baseless intentional insults really contribute to nothing other than to the pile of evidence that leads toward your lack of intelligence.
Welcome to the future. I am a man. I play games. I would honestly rather play MMOs with a CoX girl rather than listen to your sexism.
Also, some girl posted a "we rule u" in here somewhere. +P I believe in equality. Don't argue with an idiot, hun. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
MJW I agree w/u COH!!! ;)
Hey forsheezy- I do this everyday(well almost lol) Manage to Game + keep my crib clean +P Single mom of 3 + i LOVE Gamin' Catch me on COH/COV almost anyday ;)
+ I think it is AWESOME they gave us a chance to VOTE: HANDS DOWN I choose COH!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ROCK ON GAMERS!!! (girls + guys)
::HUGS::
American Hottie ;)
wow you are one pathetic guy if u think a girls place is in the kitchen then why don't you tell my girlfriend ,she'd kick ur ass
OMG! WTF, is up with that? Seriously, catch up with the times you pathetic excuse for a man. Who the hell told you that women don't play online games but, yet they are in the kitchen cooking for their man while he sits on his a** and plays games and she's slaving away cooking your dinner? This isn't 1950 anymore and it's not like you can go out and play golf with your buddies while poor wifey is stuck at home with the kids, cooking, cleaning, doing laundry and the grochery shopping. I have played CoH for almost 2 years and my husband has a hard time getting me away from the computer b/c I love to play it as much as he does. You should really feel like an a** right now, considering ya know that it was a woman whom gave you life. Was your father a sexist pig like you or did you just come up with this "I hate women" attitude all on your own? Either way, give yourself a pat on the back, because you've got it down pat buddy. Keep that attitude and you'll die an old man living in your mother's basement, who by which is probably supporting you and upstairs right now as I type cooking your favorite dinner and ironing your Captain Planet sheets, underoos and pajamas for her lovely sicko son. Get a life you f'n loser.
How Rude! Iron your own damn clothes you lazy guy!
where is gurumin and lumanites and exit anmd megaman pu?
where the hell is the puzzle catagory?
isn't that what whats-his-name Lumines creator keeps going on about?
how women love puzzle games like lumines?
but gears of war is NOT a first person shooter. thats like saying Gran Turismo is a street racing game.
Don't people complain on how woman-gamers are always treated differently than guy-gamers? Well.. I don't think this is helping. This is isolating them even more. Instead of breaking the barrier between girl gamers and guy gamers, this is building it.
It's more about getting womens' voices heard about what kinds of games they like. Let's be honest, most games are designed for us dudes. Women play games too and the marketers need to know what they want in a game. It's easy for most guys: explosions, death, t and a. Can't really say the same about women, so they're doing this to get their oppinions out there for the game designers to see. It's really as simple as that.
I can't get her off the freakin thing!!!
and twilight princess isnt on the game of the year list why????
And just how the fluff is Raving Rabbids a platformer?
and also have to agree with earlier comment, why no puzzle category?
Probably because even though the site running this poll likes to classify themeselves as "girl gamers" (rather than just "gamers"), they also seem to be scared of conforming to existing "girl gamer" stereotypes (eg all girls like puzzle games), whether those stereotypes are accurate or not.
I think this is a great idea. But right now I can see on the first post that the gaming culture is still filled with sexists, GET OVER IT MAN! Gaming girls exist and are a part of the world. "Washing and laundry just for girls" bulls****.
I love this game been playin it since it came out, hope it wins!
gurlz r *****z n shuldnt b able to pl@y b/cuz they r bad n fat
I thought this vote might be interesting and came over to check it out. Imagine my disappointment when I read the first few posts. I apologise, Ladies, for those of my gender that have no taste. G-d must love idiots, he seems to have made alot of them.
CoH by far my fav, But my husband still has a hard time against me in Battlefront 1 and 2, And I can out play the kids in Prince of Persia sands and warrior. So guys get over yourselfs and make me a sandwich and bring me a Mt. Dew.
Well it seems that the idiotic boy teenagers found this site. At least that's who I hope posted a few of these comments. if they are grown men, ugh, no wonder women complain about men so much. :D I'd vote for COH/COV myself, if I were a woman, since that's a great game, but taste's differ. I know I met a lot of cool women gamers when playing that for awhile. :) Oh, and for the ****tards out there who think a MMO is a dating service, when I said "met" I meant teaming up and doing stuff IG, not outside it, yah dumb***es.
I am a guy, and I think the posts from other guys in this thread are reprehensible. I share household duties with my wife. She is not better than me and I am not better than her. And the same goes for gaming. I do, however, agree with one thing...and it is not a knock against gender or race or anything. When you create seperate categories you CAN (not will) cause more seperation between groups of people. I hate to see the 'Black Gospel Awards' because it is a divisive. Why not just call it the 'Gospel Awards' because the moment you Categorise it by gender or race, then you start division. As a sub note to this, while I agree, to an extent with it creating more seperation, at the same time it is just gaming (I love gaming but RL is more important) and I see it this is just a Fun poll that will in essence let people know what girls are into in gaming.
Don't be seperatists and don't be sexist...we all equal and we are all different, embrace both qualities and live in harmony and game til the cows come home.
Im a dude.
I love women.
I love games.
This poll rocks.
nothing wrong with this :) however im a lil disturbed by that first comment i read, and the one about shorts... see i always said games was male dominant. but oh yeah coh is my one n only fav! the *****y jocky boys can have the other ones...
You know thats a bit unfair, City of Villains/City of Heroes are basically the same game, you pay one monthly fee to play both, and by splitting them up you're splitting up the votes, thus is harder for them to be #1.
Lame poll. CoX is much better then any of the other games listed by far for many reasons. I enjoy my health amount of tanker smash and mastermind ruination.
Every other poll I've ever seen has listed the City of games together.
Technically they are two different games.
I agree, they should be put together. I bought G vs. E and I enjoy BOTH.
Unreal to see comments like the first few. I to am hoping that they are teenagers and don't know any better. But then again if that is the way they think, doesn't say much about their fathers. That is a way of thinking that is taught, especially in todays world. I am also a woman and quite frankly have been playing COH since a month after launch and COV since beta. I love them both. Has to be the best out there.
Coh.Cov Is the best game out there. You meet people from all over. You can create a toon that can fly,jump,superspeed. Your toon can be good or bad. It takes you away from your real problems to a fantasy outlet, and it doesn't care if your male or female, young or old. And more females are playing games today then ever before and we are good at it. And most of the males that play this game must know that females or as good as them or better for most of them have female toons.
In agreeances, with Conchy Joe....same page here.
I am a FULL TIME - At Home Mom with a 3yr old toddler and a 9 mo. old. My J-O-B is; taking care of my children, cleaning the house, 4ppls laundry, groceries, breakfast, lunch, dinner, dishes, sweeping & moping, vacuuming, bathrooms, pets, bills, diapers, bottles, baths......IT NEVER ENDS!!
Did you know that DAYCARE is just ONE of all those jobs? (thats all they do, is watch kids....I could do that)
I'd need a maid, a laundress, a cook, a babysitter, a teacher, a nurse ....... to just take over MY job!
And I didn't include my Wifely duties. :)
That is my never-ending, 8hr shift.
BUT, I am very lucky to say that I have an AWESOME hubby for I would of probably hit 'Nuckin Futs' if it wern't for him. He does SO much, because, even tho he goes to an 8hr a day job. He also knows that being a DAD is FULL TIME too.
I am just blessed to have a man who can see, ALL OF what I do ......... and then, straight up tell me "I don't want the job." lol But its a good thing we share some of them!
~So Where -o- Where did my social life go?
The only real other 'escape' you have since you can't leave your house w/o kids, is you comp. Where you can get away and do something different and relax.
(granted you only get this time when the kids are already asleep and you're so tired from the day you change you mind and hit da hay)
I enjoy CoH/CoV BECAUSE you get to interact w/ REAL people who are there to play not pick you up. You can accomplish things in this game w/ little time everyday. As vs. EQ2 where you need ALOT of time to get anything done.
Lots of versitility with the Characters you can create and pwrs they can wield. Wether you're Solo or Teaming you will be able to level your toon and enjoy the game.
All the men that have been bashing woman playing video games need to read this.
Thank you are my new hero!
I love this game and my husbad for understanding my many hours a day i spend playing. I too and a at home mom with 2 school age kids. I also use this game as an escape and a way to reboot my brain on bad days. I love the real intereaction i have with other ppl good and bad. Its a nice break form the prison i call my life otherwise.
Oh and i was also a gamer in the 80s loved that astriods and the car racing games. I kick some serious rear in those days.
look just because we're women doesnt mean we can play video games hell i would probably kick most of your guys a**es. Also i would vote for CoV
I have been playing these games since beta on each.. I love them! Been into comics since I was 4. So it was the game for me. I, too, wish they had combined them into the G. vs E. edition.. and I noticed it didn't get into game of the year.. well .. that's where my vote lays.. it should be Game of the Year...
Cyas in the City..
1. Virtue > all other servers
no wait im sorry...
1. Katarina > all
2. Virtue > all other servers
3. Girls=Guys
4. Guys=Girls
5. For some reason I got a laugh out of all these comments.
6. Pick up sticks.
7. Free pie for all
CoH and CoV should definitely win.. WoW is just boring, I play both CoH/V and WoW.. and always find myself on WoW..
I've been into comics since I stepped foot on this earth! Humans and Orcs can't compete with Super Fast, Super Strong, Mind Controlling, Energy Blasting, Bank Smashing.. Heroes and villains! I speak for me and my GF!!
So nice to hear the supportive males out there. The first few posts were clearly setups to get us pi$$ed. If they really meant it, (this vehemence) and not just in some snickering man-child "h'yuck h'yuck, hey bra.. look whut I gunna post, damn I hope this makes those chicks wanna do me.." way.. well hell.. in either way, f*ck em.
CoH and CoV different games? Yah i have to say this out loud. CoV was designed SOooo much more inteligently. The "time sink" factor is lestened to a massive degree. I mean CoH has so many fed-ex missions for contacts. What a JOY it is to be told to walk my spandex butt across town, talk to someone in a Trial Zone.. then walk back to deliver the message, only to be told I now need to walk BACK across town to the far corner of Atlas.. and come back.. honestly, that happens all the time in CoH. It's like delivering whispers for the mafia! Have'nt these 'contacts' ever heard of a phone? Silly.. tedious...
Until recently with police band missions, CoH was by far slower if you did'nt have 8 person teams running full tilt boogie for XP. CoV did it right and they did it first. (Pssst! it's because the lead devs were different and because Fricking Statesman wasn't hammering it into his 'golden dream of heroism and goodliness' *wink*)
/bratmode on
And finally.. Statesman.. you big macho bastion of all things testosterone poisoned! Have you seen the bimbos in the vindicators? The're all h00kers in tights! Hell he even has his own cat-girl furrie! He's going nothing for the ladies of the CoX world. Male costumes have some amazing looking options and somehow the unique things that mimick theirs are half-a$$ed cobbled together versions of theirs. Pathetic. Further proof that males attempt to dominate MMOs, in this case from the top of the pyramid down. The men got a tux... what do we have as far as something that might come close to elegant? Well.. if you work at it, you can put together a dress that looks like something you tore off a dead crack wh0re. a strapless miniskirt... cr4p! can we not look like barbies??
/bratmode off
Right.. CoV, excelent as games go. Aside from some minor issues, it's got an amazing character creator, fun powers (though we could use more options) and YES.. Virtue is the only server.. period. RP FTW!
-Peace.
I think I actually lost brain cells, reading all these post and replies.
This is about the dumbest sh*t I have seen in a long time. If Women/Girl gamers want to hold a poll let them. Hell we get the Video Game Awards on Spike TV (you know the channel for "GUYS" crap). YET you guys are going to sit here and have a b*tch fest over these ladies getting a poll for thier favorite game. Give me a break man.
Some women are not into games, and that is cool to, My ex-wife wasn't... That's why she is an ex. My new wife is.... That's why she is the new wife. I have a funny feeling the guys bashing the ladies here need to 1. Make the wife and ex and find a gamer wife, or 2. Grow up and realize we dont live in 1910 we live in 2007 and you have to game with women now, tough s**t live with it. On that note I know alot of gamer chicks that can outplay most of the guys I know. So ... you can decide for yourself who is full of s**t in most of these post.
I really enjoy the CoH/CoV game play. Once on the game & getting use to the movement, it's really hard to go back to a game console such as Xbox & PS2...uh, i won't be buying the ps3. so my Xbox & Ps2 are collecting dust...once i get bored of CoH/V, i may buy the Xbox 360 & Wii. but...i just can't help making a new toon when i feel the need to try new powers.
the endless looks & power combinations will keep you coming back to make new toons. highly recommend this game to girlies new to the MMO's.
CoH/CoV for best MMO!!!
oh and for the mean boy who thinks girls should only wash dishes and don't know anything about games...you must be jealous because you can't play to save your life!! Look me up in COH and let's PVP...
MaghnusRed or Sachiyo---i'll tank you to the ground!!!
CoH should win. It's a great game where strong, empowered women team up and kick evil's ass....need i say more?
First of all, i want to say this. This is to all the males out there that have nothing better to do than put down women: Grow the ***** up! Quit acting like children! If you are child and saying retarded stuff like that, then you need to go tell your mommy and daddy what you just did and never return to this site again. By the way guys, we are now in the 21st Century. The Women's Evolution was over 30 years ago, before most of you were born. None of you are coming from a society in which women were house dependent, so don't go out pretending that you are use to the ways in which it USE to be.
Secondly, this is for the women out there, that think your better than us men: Grow the ***** up! Yes, you had your moment in the past that brought you out of the households, and made you become equals in the workforce. You're in the Military, you're everywhere! That's great, and I personally think its a good thing. It brings diversity to the workforce, and I am all for that. But i do not believe that you are better than men, nor do i believe men are better than women...Equality means Equal, not a tipped scale!
Finally, i would like to say that CoH/CoV freaking rules! I will not cast a vote on this website for I am not of gender to do so, but i do encourage all of you that are female, to do so! This is a great website for people to come together and share ideas and not bash on each other...I sincerely hope that it doesn't cause any trouble and all the LOSERS stay the hell out!
;_; I love you, man... All of it... Even the CoX part at the end... *sob*
Virtue... right?
Seriously... I have friends that pull people down like I see people (both male and female) doing in here. It's straight up sickening. If you wanna prove you're better, don't make an idiot of yourself by falling to your transgressor's level.
Also, this board fails at recognizing Equal signs, paragraph indenting, double spacing, and a shift key... :(
i totally agree and coh/cov is the best game PERIOD
i like it so much I'm gonna vote 4 it even though I'm a man so there! rock on equality!
I vote for CoH/CoV all the way :D Both games are awesome but if I HAD to choose one of the two, it would be heroes! But both are definitely the best. Girl Power!
It's so hard to choose!!! I love City of Heroes and I love City of Villains...if I have to pick just one, I have to say City of Heroes. Both games totally rock :)
After years of playing it is predictable but fun - a great stress relief after a hard day.
