Default sex ratio
I would like to know what is the sex ratio for the people that are anxiously anticipating this awesome game! I would say 95 to 98% are males?

Gosh, I hope not. Most studies have found that 40% of most online gaming communities are female, though many tend to be quiet. We do actually play games, and there are actually quite a few of us. Sometimes it takes a bit to get us out in public though. =P

So yes, I'm female, and I will be playing. Think I've seen a few other women around, but I'm just guessing by the way they type. It's nice to know there are some other fangirls like me around, hehe.

It's a good thing that about 40% of gamers are female, or else that would make men look incredibly pathetic

Yup it's always nice to have some fangirls around and in the future I wish to see the female's ratio rise to 60 -70%. By the way, are u a fan of tomb raider??

Yeah the movements of tomb raider are very sleek in nature. Anyways from my experience with girls, I have seen they have very little interest in comics or video games. But u seem a bit different . So why do u like batman ?

Your boyfriend is a lucky guy! I hope he is as into batman as we are. My girlfriend loves batman, not so much into the comics but she loved the movies and she is a huge fan of The Animated Series, she is not into videogames except Mortal Kombat but I am sure she will play this one.

lol! Well, mainly because I like the fact he's just a normal guy who does extrodinary things; superman is a ponce. =P That and I love the Joker and therefore I adore Harley, so it's a mix of happiness really.

And I have a major interest in video games, I study Games Graphics Design currently, so am a major geek. Though a lot of the girls I went to school with weren't interested in games, I've met a fair few through my course and their friends. We are difficult to hunt out though because the majority of girls who are interested in gaming don't look like geeks in the slightest. (ie we don't all wear baggy tshirts and jeans)

it might be me but I don’t think that that’s the most effective way to convince her, but I praise you for your persuasive power

Yup, I also like the fact that he is a ordinary guy doing extraordinary things.

Well, just because u r interested in games, it doesn't make u a geek. According to me, this is an art and the subject has a got a lot of potential.

Seriously? You have access to people working on the game and you'd ask them ridiculous questions like this? How about digging for a little info about release schedule, gameplay details, or the possibility of a demo? Thanks.

Yup must agree with killing joke, some of the sci-fi stuff are really awesome. And hysteric u a geek??? Well, from what I have perceived from ur posts , I feel that u just don't fit in the 'geek' category!!

And u know what there is something 'cool' about every human being.So geeks are cool in their own 'geeky' way and I like that.
