This. I'm sick of this latest trend of politically correct oversensitive reviewers that are trying to push their own agendas on industry.

Of course, asking for her to be fired is just ridiculous, rest of the review is actually pretty decent.


News flash: There are a growing number of female gamers in the gaming industry and they want to enjoy games just as much as males do. Theres no agenda, the game has been misogynist since GTA 3. This is a fact not an opinion. Another female reviewer on IGN didn't talk about the misogynism, but she gave her opinion once or twice in the review. Do you want them to fire her too? Perhaps they should fire Tara Long from Rev 3 games. No one is being PC because they are playing a very non-pc game and giving it remarkably high scores but also preparing the audience for what it entails to exist in such a world.

@bold - Maybe you should take a deep breath or two and read again what I wrote before putting the words in my mouth next time...

Other than that, news flash for you: creators of GTA (or whatever other piece of art/entertainment) have every right to make their story and characters however they feel like it. That's their prerogative.  I have no problem if reviewers are informing their audience about some of the things that are in game and that some might find offensive. But I do, and always will, have a problem with them giving negative point to  the game (and I suggest you go to Gamespot and look up under The Bad) for not being politically correct...and that's agenda right there.
