Despite what some may say, and contrary to popular belief, females make up a large portion of the gaming community, and I’m not talking about for games like Barbie’s Dream House Simulator or anything like that either. I think male gamers like me can agree, that it really is a turn-on when girls can tear us up at Call of Duty or even something small like catching a glimpse of a gamer tag like “KickA$$GamerGurl” in the matchmaking lobby. There’s definitely something damn sexy about it and it may even make some of us male gamers tremble with controllers in hand.

To get a better gist of our female gaming community, I want to find out from some of you female gamers about what you play, which game character you relate to the most, and which would you want to be (could be female, male, or even an alien being). Please explain why. Gentlemen, don’t feel left out; you can chime in too, but let’s hear it for the ladies!

By the way, all you female gamers out there, from April 2nd, until May 25th, Maxim and Virgin Gaming will be looking for just that, the ultimate girl gamer to represent all girl gamers out there, the first ever Maxim Gamer Girl! Feel free to check that out and show the gaming world what you’re made of on their website! Not to mention, see the other gamers in the running including a GUY that goes by the name “hot_bid” who seems to be vying for the title of Gamer Girl! LOL





(I’ll be honest, I play as a lot of the female game characters in games like Soul Calibur or Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City because they are sexy as hell, play just as well, if not better than the male characters, and are fierce!)

I feel like this contest is 15 years too late. Everyone knows women play video games.

And yeah, your first paragraph is a good example of the sexism that kept woman from picking up gaming in the first place, and the reason why insecure ones picked it up for the attention associated with being a "gam3r gurl."

This sounds like something for those corporate paid-to-play "gamer gurlz"... not real gamers who happen to be females.

To clarify, the guy mentioned in the OP - Hot_Bid - is an adminstrator/troll for Starcraft uber-site teamliquid.net.

I have been voting for him daily since the beginning of the contest.

Also Starcraft related is Anna Prosser, fiancee of American Brood War/Starcraft 2 player iNcontroL. Or however the he capitalizes that god damn name. She is down by many, many votes against Hot_Bid.

Ah, thanks for clarifying that, Crotch! His trolling is amazing and brings a smile to my heart!

Yes I'm sure they'll pick someone who actually plays games versus the hottest one they find that plays some games and can pass for a gamer. It's ing Maxim.

What is this. I don't even

The only questions you even asked relating to females and gaming is a series of questions which are so open ended that everyone, regardless of gender, is going to have a personal answer to them, since people choose the games they like, the characters they like, and the characters they play based on all kinds of different reasons regardless of what gender they are.

yeah most gamers know a few girls who game personally but funny enough developers dont seem to get it. look at u3 mp why only allow men to customize their own character who not allow people to customize their own female character as well? same can be said for race too.

Maybe it's just me, but this is how I read that paragraph.
