Lesbian Gamers

Lesbians Creed box-art

Yes it’s that time again. We’ve been sent in another doctored box art, this time by ‘The Spike’. She tells us that she’d “love to have a kick-ass chick in the lead role of Assassin’s Creed” adding “after all we do get pegged with the role of predator generally, so why not swing with it lol”.

We thought this was a pretty cool premise and appreciate the time and efforts put in. We also thought The Spike had a pretty good point about the lesbian / predator thing and the fact this box art has another lesbian connection in the form of Christina Cox is also reason to add it to our box-art archives. You can see the ‘Lesbians Creed’ box-art HERE.

Dykes on Bikes - Gaming Homage Box Art

With news today that Dykes on Bikes have been ‘allowed’ to keep THEIR name, we thought we’d give a shout out to all those ladies out there that like some two wheeled action. Clicky HERE to see our first fakey gaming box art as a homage.

The U.S. Supreme Court denied a petition by nutcase attorney Micheal McDermott after he challenged the name because it was “disparaging to men” and “scandalous and immoral”. McDermott is a men’s advocate and said Dykes on Bikes describes “hyper-militant radicals hateful toward men.”

Ohhh that’s what that was about at the last Pride I was at when the Dykes on Bikes were all smiling, hugging and generally being a great bunch of gals, who happen to like motorbikes. Clearly I missed the secret ‘man hating’ bit of what was obviously a radical “deep obsessive hatred of men and the male gender.” Where’s that rolling eyes emoticon.

Lara Croft Comes Out

Lady Lara Croft was at the recent British Archeological Fieldwork Awards when she surprised the audience by thanking her 'partner' Sydney Barnard stating "my beautiful Sydney who is by my side through the dark days and the light". Croft accepted the award, but the prestigious nature of the event was left in the shadows as the news of her outting herself hit newstands.

Lady Croft generally avoids any talk of her private life, though she and Barnard have shared the same home for years. It's one of those 'lesbians know she's gay, her colleagues know she's gay', but there's a hush in the straight community with many people having no idea. Croft is presently travelling the country with her lecture series 'Hidden Mysteries', at least one mystery seems to have been solved, that of Croft attending all of those previous award shows alone--perhaps Sydney will finally join her for one.
