It's because a lot of the newer titles aren't as 'gender specific', meaning there's fewer 'girl games' with color-pallets of pink, white, black, and pink. Seriously, it's a retarded concept.
The best way to get girl gamers is to just make good games.
i dont give a flying ***** if girls play video games, as long as they dont bich at me online when theyre losing
Good games? If the current lists of good games aren't good enough, then I don't know what is. Halo, MGS, FF, Tekken, Zelda, GTA, Resident Evil just to name a few. Revolutionary games, and yet they don't appeal to girls. Think about it: if you want girl gamers, you have to make games that'll attract their attention. The same is no different in trying to GET a girl.
Video games for girls is like dancing for guys. 80% of guys can't dance, and I would say the same about girls and gaming. But those who can are either witty or pretty good. BTW, if I got pwnt at a game I was good at by a girl, I'd might as well stop playing video games. ^_^
girls dont seem to like killing people and stealing cars, though
games that I would love if I was a girl is loco roco, daxter, sonic adventure, grumurin, maybe mario/zelda.
Devs do not need to make girly games...just great ones..
My girlfriend is just like us MANLY gamers...she likes Tekken, GTA, Virtua Fighter, Zelda, Shenmue, REZ, MGS...etc.
I believe that girls are just like guys when it comes to games: if the game kicks all a$$ then they will play it.
In fact, her favorite game right now is Bully on PS2....
On the other hand, maybe I just raised her right.....and should count myself as lucky for having a girlfriend / fiance who loves gaming.
Lucky Me!!!
she isn't very attractive, is she...
just kidding.
I say girl gamers are okay with me, and if they're hot it's a BIIIIG plus.
good one ^

and instead of having sex, you can pwn eachother on halo 2!! sounds fun to me!
I think female gamers are hot!! I welcome them. That just means more money for the gaming industry, which is a good thing for all gamers. It is slowing becoming more mainstream.
Lets hope these female gamers are pc gamers... cuz console gamers are ruining it for us all. >:(
"This session will focus on a Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) survey which found that women gamers outnumber men gamers in the 25-34 age group."
That might be true, but that survey was probably only about casual, card, and puzzle games, like word search, yahtzee, uno, some sort of online tetris clone, solitare. That I can believe.
Sorry CEA, online puzzle bobble doesnt count as gaming.
Female gamers are nothing new and whenever someone decides to do a "OMG l00k! Der's female gameorz ans we g0nnza tells yews alll ab0uts it" it just drills the notion that female gamers are a rare unheard of thing that people must treat differently.
Exactly the opposite of what these organizations want to do.
I know chicks out the ass that plays Mortal Kombat Teris
No girls on the internet. Period. >:|
i think its rare to girls to play videogames unless they were pretty much raised with them. i mean common girls have dolls that piss and take dumps, we grew up with nintendos and playstations. now my sister plays games shes hooked on sonic rivals now, but i think its because we were raised playing games all day. and most girls dont play because of the competition, they dont like to lose thats why they dont play them. i mean F|_|CK! my gf plays *****en halo she plays with her bro all the time, another sense of growing up with games. but i think it should be us guys more than anything to persuade them into the gaming industry i mean common video games have now been a top choice among things to do at leisure.
and its alot funner playing socom on my psp when your clan members a chick owning fools nasty
persude kids
I know plenty of girls that cant get enough animal crossing. or harvest moon. lots of women love puzzle games..now we should combine women with a urination puzzle game..skeet skeet
the main reason girls never play games is because they are told "video games are for boys" i got it all the time i was a child and most of my freinds did too.
as before, if hte game is good,people will play it, regardless of gender. i know id much prefer to play mgs then some "female friendly" game.
all you need to do to get girls to play games, is to stop telling them they are for boys...
This is so ghey, this is just another thing that really zooms in on minorities, and blows them out of proportion. I'd be ashamed if I were that (girl)reporter, cuz that only says once again that women are embarrassed about their well-earned stereotypes. This only proves that they can't ever be happy.
have any of u ever heard of female gamers on xbox live, lol that would be hilarious listening to all the nerds and prepubescent vulgar spouting boys obsess over them on xbox live.
This is good news for everyone. Adding more female gamers is something that the industry needs. Not only can this drive up the profits for gaming companies, but it will provide a base for better more diverse games.
If you go to CES, also check out the FREE Wi-Fi on the Monorail. Hot spots are every where, but not all of them are highspeed connections. Go to http://onerail.blogspot.com to find out more.
