Gamer's Manifesto
Not sure if I've mentioned this before, but it bears repeating. The Gamer's Manifesto descibes in detail everything we DON'T want in the next-gen consoles like the Xbox 360 and PS3, along with how likely it is to happen.
Great use of images as support, well-organized, and very funny.
Excerpt from #5:
"Developers will be shocked one day when they notice that the world is full of women. It's true! More than half of your potential customer base are penisless. They have money. They like doing fun things.
...
Sadly, the proven money-making designers in the industry are the same ones that have given us Dead Or Alive Beach Volleyball and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (where the main character rampages though a city populated with violent men and sex-crazed street whores). As it turns out, they’re all men. The female demographic is seen as something that can be “targeted” by adding features to existing games, such as in-game clothes shopping, in-game makeup application and in-game cute animal pets. Game creators aren’t just casually missing the point, they’re showing a unified front of stupidity."
*jumps up and down and cackles madly* He's GOT IT! HE'S GOT IT!!
