Ever since I was little I’ve loved playing video games. They are my life! And throughout my life, I have noticed certain types of gamers get different stigmas attached to them, which has made me question: what makes a game ‘dorky’ or ‘cool’? I think an initial problem, is that the gaming industry as a whole is considered to be something originally aimed at children. But as the gamers themselves have grown, so have the companies, and the demand for mature games. For a long time games haven’t just been for children, though I think some people are so set in their ways that they won’t believe this to be true. Sure, I got a lot less abuse for gaming when I was a child, but would you let your children play something like Grand Theft Auto, where you can sleep with prostitutes, and even kill them if you so desire? Of course not, and a lot of games these days are rated ‘M’ for mature (18+) to ensure children won’t get their hands on them. Still, what are the other reasons for stigma surrounding gaming?

My first segment in a retrospective of DC’s re-launch. See how sexually promiscuous Catwoman, Starfire and Harley Quinn have been, and see DC’s new gay “mainstream” character stepping out of the closet.
Given that we live in a time in which Hollywood remakes and reboots run rampant, it’s considered taboo to clamor for one. But the truth of the matter is, there are a lot of decent films that have been made over the years that simply could’ve been better.
What do you think about comic book companies hyping up their stories?
Mars Attacks, celebrating it’s franchise’s fiftieth anniversary, comes out with an on-going series – and it’s really good!
