We all know it - a week before Fat Princess launches, we are gonna see controversy fireworks to compete with a GTA release. And thus we're gonna need some form of unification here. We know the game is not misogynistic, nor does it make fun of fat people. However, its still gonna need us to actually distribute some form of sense.

 So, Lemmings, which is greater - your hate for the Ps3, or your love of gaming and its advancement?

I think everyone needs a refresher on what fat princess is...

...a PSN game being made where players from opposing teams are trying to return their respective princess from the enemy. Its a cutsy art style and violent and feminists came out and made a fuss because a mechanic in the game allows the enemy team to feed your princess with cake thus making her fat and harder to rescue.

His question is will lemmings defend this game as gamers from the criticism of these feminist groups or will they bash it due to their hate for the ps3 seeing how it is a PSN exclusive game?

I think i summed it up well.

u mean cows, fat princess is a ps3 game, ergo cows will be defending. ps3 fanboy-cow. wii-sheep. 360-lemming. Or mabe u meant attack instead of defend in the title since you gearing up to defend the game as it seems.

ok but I am still not understanding what being a gamer is a reason why anyone should support this just because they are a gamer. The only thing more annoying then the feminist that are being brought up are people that say gamers should support( insert game name here ) to help the gaming world. Big deal it has some chubby chick in it. That is not some break thru game development. If the game is good then it will be supported by people and that is how it should be. I wish people would stop saying we need to support this game or this console for the good of the gaming world.

I see it as that these games are what we do, how we decide to spend our time and money to entertain ourselves and do what we enjoy because thats how we choose. And if it steps on a couple of peoples toes then so be it because video games are art as far as I am concerned. You don't have to support it but I choose to support someone's idea for a game because they have that right to and because I hate to see ignorant people attack the thing I love to do. Which is what I feel a lot of politicians, among other people do which includes these feminists.

It'd be no different for any other sort of media. My two cents on the issue.

Except fat princess doesn't advance gaming they took an age old formula put a princess you get fat on it and thats about it.
Its like braid it did not revolutionize the genre but what it did was so well done that it was amazing, it was basically like Super mario world but refined a 1000x times over. not saying fat princess will be refined it will likely be a sloppy crap game.

Fat princess is a GAME, which organizations of feminists are fighting against. So in a sense it's gamers vs feminists, and the TC is asking if lemmings will defend the GAME even though it's PS3 exclusive

I believe the TC's point here is that the game shouldn't be "trashed" simply due to the nature of its theme. If Sony allows them to do that, it's a slippery slope for all gaming avenues.

The OP was worded confusingly, can't blame people for getting a big "Huh" reading it. It has nothing to do with comprehension - simply the TC's lacking ability in getting his point across.

On topic, I'm not going to do anything beside play games, then check back in here and see where's that's got me.

What do you mean "allows them"? How the hell are Sony gonna stop femminists going on Fox or writing long-winded, poorly researched articles and saying that this game is the cause of the misoginy among young males?

As I said Fat princess does not advance gaming, like Braid it takes an old formula and updates it, but unlike braid where that old formula is literally refined to art type levels and is a good thing fat princess will likely be a slapped together game that will give me a few minutes enjoyment before i get bored.

as for that people need to learn every thing is based upon the male/female dynamic every thing we do as a species is.

Can you go a post without bashing the PS3 in some way? Or is it literally in your system to bash it every single post? As for the Topic, which contrary to half of this thread, is perfectly easy to understand. I think most Lemmings will carry on bashing the game, I highly doubt many will even consider the impact it could have on gaming in general if Feminists can cause a negative impact on it's production.

"Allow" as in not defend the product and allow themselves to be pressured to get rid of the game.

And if anything, they're gonna whine on MSNBC. Not Fox.

This. It sounds fun though, and I believe devs should be able to make what they want, so if it's half decent I'll definately support it.

Do you have a PS3? Just asking because if you do, I have to ask, "Why do you have a PS3?" All you ever do is complain 24/7. Why not sell it? :?
