Hey @Deoxys_57: Sophia mentioned in her feature that she'd have another one. I don't know when yet, but I'm sure her @sophia or the Minecraft Diary feature will keep everyone updated:
Alright peeps, we've traded Cars 2 with TF2 due to the free to play version and because we don't know if enough people will have the Cars 2 game in a couple of days.
@snap-dragon: You are right. We don't always have to play a female character to enjoy a game. I loved playing as John Marston in Red Dead Redemption, and he was a manly man. I also liked how he treated the ladies, though, so in some way I think his gentleman manner caused me to feel good about playing as him in the game. I imagine that some of the problems with women characters or women in the industry can often be a double edged sword. If there are female focused games, regular gamers feel left out. Ladies like to be treated as ladies, but we also want to be able to play games with others (regardless of gender). I have found that once we are given any opportunities to play as a female character in a storyline or multiplayer mode, I've noticed how some women dislike not being treated appropriately. For an example, kicking or shooting a female character in a game kind of feels wrong to some men who respect women. Then we have women (non-gamers or gamers) who might find this behavior as disrespectful. If we want games to be diverse for every kind of gamer, regardless of gender, I kind of think any changes will not satisfy every gamer (including the hardcore or casual gamers). That's why I like just focusing on seeing better games that attract all kinds of gamers.
