PMS ClanElectronic Arts, a company that has a knack for jumping on the next big thing ahead of everyone else, is taking female gamers seriously. EA is hosting the first Women in Games International "From Production to Profit: Creating and Marketing Games for Women" at the company's San Francisco office in March 2007.

The conference will discuss the future of game design and game marketing as the female player marketplace matures and expands. The event's panel and roundtable topics include:

  • By Design: Building Games for Women Who Play
  • The Medium Is the Message: Marketing Games to Women who Play
  • Meet the Producers
  • Introduction to Careers in Gaming
EA has been at the forefront of promoting videogames for women and for a good reason. According to Nielsen, 64% of 117 million on-line gamers in North America are women.

Do girls have anything better other then to copy men, so they can Finally feel equal. why can't they set there own standard rather then whine about (Ohh..if men can do it women can do it also if not better). I don't mean to dis female gamers or anything, but come on be different. Heck that's why you are women NOT men, stop placing your self in the cycle of (got to catch up to men) cuz if you don't you will always feel lesser level then a man.
