The L Word Game Rating System

If you've been watching the Gay Girls Who Game video show, you'll know Lesbian Gamers will be publishing reviews as well as reviewing titles sent out by publishers on the show. Because of this, we've devised a new video game reviewing system you will only see here at Lesbian Gamers.

Gone are those boring 'out of 10' review scores and replacing them is The L word Video Game Reviewing System, ahh yes, lots of lesbian loveliness used to explain a games good or bad points. You can check out the Lesbian Gamers L Word Game Review system right HERE (just so you can get a handle on it).

GTA IV gay content?

Rockstar title GTA IV might have some gay content it seems. Don't get too excited, there's may not be and cool lesbian types in it, to the best of our knowledge. We're talking male gay gangster types, or at least that's the rumor.

Apparently one of the missions sees the protagonist cruise for a gay mobster so he can teach him a lesson or two. Not sure if this is linked to the rumor that the Australian content cut from GTA IV took the form of a gun being inserted into the back passage of a guy who had raped another guy in prison. Sounds like the two might be separate.

We'll be bringing you a full review and rundown on GTA IV including a special look at any female characters that pop up. Here's hoping the only "lesbians" if any aren't threesome material for the protagonist.

Porny St Fighter statues

I like action figures, I like resin statues. As a gaming geek I have quite a few dotted around the place. Despite my lady loving ways these aforementioned statues need not have their ass hanging out and their breasts so large they need helium implants to keep them from touching knees.

If you're a lady that likes the idea of frak me pumps and large breasted games characters, look no further than the sexist twaddle you can get HERE. They're Z list Street Fighter 'babes'. Personally I think the brown statue (at the link) would have been pretty cool, if she'd been dressed in non prostitution wear and had regular sized breasts, but maybe I'm too much the dyke realist.

Gay Girls Who Game - Epi 15

Gay Girls Who Game are back on dry land after their Pirate Episode last week. This week there's still games reviews aplenty and also a new section called 'Site Guff' that sees the girls talk lesbiangamer.com (that's us!) and lesbiangeek.com.

Episode Fifteen of the vlog (thanks to AfterEllen.com and LesbianGamers.com) also features the usual viewer feedback and reviews of The Spiderwick Chronicles on the X360, Turning Point Fall of Liberty on the X360 and Jam Sessions on the Nintendo DS, along with loads of other gaming talk!

Metal Gear Online - female characters?

Since lesbians are by definition female, this is probably going to rile you ever so slightly. It doesn't look like we female types have been taken into consideration with regards to Metal Gear Online character creation. What a shock I hear you cry!

The trailer is out for MGS character creation and at this stage it looks pretty lame, though they have tried to cover racial bases by including what looks like superficial attempts at the 'main' racial types. Shame they don't appear to have thought about gender--assuming that didn't happen beforehand, but feedback to the clip seems to suggest that isn't the case.

The ultra-portable Wii screen by Chinavasion

What you're looking at in the post image is an ultra portable Nintendo Wii Screen available at Chinavasion. We've added another full image after the jump for you all. The ball joint design on this means you can swivel the screen any which way you like, which is handy assuming you'd want a tiny Wii screen in the first place.

We don't really see the point of this, other than to maybe play Wii in the car, but that might be a little restrictive and even dangerous, dependent on who's playing (we mean how rowdy they are, not that the driver might fancy a go lol). The Wii always seems to be more of a full on TV experience, what with the swinging of limbs involved in some games, so we say the bigger the screen the better. Still you might like this so we posted it anyway for the lesbian gadget fan.

Thanks to Lesbian Geek for the tip.

We Cheer on Wii - Cheerleading lesbians

Why they didn't call this 'Wii Cheer' is a mystery to us, seems like an obvious opportunity missed. What we have here is cheerleading on your Wii. Sure we know cheerleading is probably not high on your average lezzie's list of preferred sports, but it might be fun, maybe, somehow.... we know there are some lesbian cheerleaders out there, we met one once.

Anyways.. a new We Cheer trailer is up and we thought it was funny, mainly because we watched it to the end and the last additional cheerleader was amusing, but also because we thought this might actually be an OK party title. That is assuming it works as well as Namco Bandai would have you believe and isn't another fiasco like Boogie was (and you're steaming drunk when you play it - Ed.).

Forbidden Siren 3 countdown begins?

Don't these count down clocks drive you nuts when you don't know what they're counting down to? We're happy to lay a bet that it isn't counting down to a cool survival horror title that features a lesbian heroine as she saves a town from destruction by evil forces *sigh*.

Given the location of this mystery site (Sony Japan) it's probably Siren 3 it's counting down to. Siren 3 was called Forbidden Siren in PAL territories and featured the creepy village of Hanuda. Siren and Siren 2 are great because they manage to translate Japanese movie horror extremely well to the video game medium. We're sure Siren 3 will be as creepy as the previous 2 titles... assuming of course that's what this is.

Sadness by Nibris goes Gamebryo

Sadness is a title by Nibris that gathered quite a bit of chatter due to its odd mix of film led gameplay and black and white stylings. This is a little update for those interested in this title. It's still slated for a release (next year) and is utilising the Gamebryo engine, the same engine used for Oblivion and Fallout 3.

If you're still not interested, look at it this way, the trailer features a pretty girl in a tight vest top 'playing' Sadness on the Wii. Oh and she has a little touch of the Gina Gershon's about her (in game and out) Now who doesn't love that.

Jade back in Beyond Good & Evil 2?

Everyone’s favorite babydyke might be back in a new adventure. Rumors are flying once more that Michel Ancel has Beyond Good & Evil 2 on the cards. Apparently Yoshitaka Amano may well be involved in the project which is said to already be underway.

Amano has previously worked on illustrations for Vampire Hunter D and loads of video games including most-if not all-of the Final Fantasy series. Ancel created Beyond Good & Evil, a title that has reached a sort of semi cult status for its story and overall design.

We’re really hoping this rumor is true. We’re also hoping Jade isn’t slutted and hetted up for the sequel if it is in the works.
