news.cnet.com— Over the past few weeks, I've heard from reputable news outlets that video games are made specifically for men and most women find little reason to play.Yeah, RIGHT!!!

I get really sick of the line between "casual" and "hardcore" gamers. Sucked two years of life into Morrowind? Check. Bought a new computer to run the Sims 2 and then played it at least five hours a day for months? Check. Bought two computers and a PS2 to replace the old xbox that died within six months? Check. Currently falling in love with Sins of a Solar Empire - and still playing Sims 2 on the side. Casual? Hmm.
I talk on games with voice-chat next to never. I just use the text chat if any communication is necessary and other players usually just assume I'm a guy. It's not like it matters. Then again I guess I'm playing on PC games, not XBOX live.

I like how you say that it's a status thing to them and then mention how it's an empire made by nerds...
