Most people would still call them a bitch guy girl black white hispanic... They all would get the same treatment from the same people.


Neither of us believes this.  You've been around long enough to hear a thousand stupid things spring forth from the media's mouth.  Because most game journalists are white guys, most of those stupid statements were said by white males.  What proportion of the responses to those statements harp on the speaker's race, gender, or other innate characteristic beyond their stupidity?

I disagree.. had sony not announced there games beforehand, they would have taken the show.. they had way more content than nintendo, even with the 3ds.

I disagree.. had sony not announced there games beforehand, they would have still lost the show.. they had way more worse content than nintendo. Even the 3DS alone beat Sony.


Not to mention a boring middle segment that a lot of people were complaining about. Sony's presentation of the product content is just as important as the content itself. (at least in presentations....)

Also I don't want to make this into a war, because I liked both sony and nintendo. 

Of course, I'm not trying to turn this into a war either. Sony's conference was okay I guess I was just disappointed with it. Nintendo did much better than I thought they would and blew me away.  I just don't believe if those games were not announced ahead of time that Sony would of taken the show. I was not impressed with any of their content and Nintendo had much much better content in my opinion.

We're at under 30 posts, and still there's a disgusting amount of sexism in this thread.


I figure if she wants to act like a bitch, people are gonna treat her like one. When she speaks this ignorantly, it makes people very angry and it looks poorly upon female gamers.


Her statements are absurd and ludicrous, and she makes herself a fair target for ridicule and scorn. 

That does nothing to justify the misogyny you and too many others are displaying.  Blacks are underrepresented in the gaming enthusiast press, even more so than women.  If it was a black person saying these exact same words, you would not be as blase if folks were throwing racial slurs around, so do not pretend that sexism is okay because Morgan Webb somehow "represents women."

On the internet, there is anonymity. No one will know who you are, so you cannot be held accountable for much that you say. Frankly, you can say whatver you want.

This case is different.

She put herself out there just like any other person remotely visible on a public internet domain.

What I did here, matches her ignorance 1:1. How do I sound calling her a bitch with a muzzle and future porn career? What I say has no basis, no logic, nor any sense of informed decency. Neither did what she said. Now, I took it to a harsher extreme, but frankly I could give two shits. Also, if you have ever been on youtube/Xbox Live, you know that users will not hesistate to discriminate on race.

I think in terms of strictly this case, A man saying the same thing as Morgan would be called a troll, no matter what race or nationality (Greek, Black, Asian, White, Middle Eastern, Hispanic). Look at Pachter.His race or creed has nothing to do with the content of his review. Criticizing anything about it would be so random. "What do white guys know about gaming? Black guys know nothing of FPSs!".......??????What?

Like I said before, women are still a minority in gaming. Despite what you think noname, that everything is peachy-keen and women are cool in gaming now, that isn't the case.

They are still thrown in with the soccer moms and casual brand. There are people who have no problem with women reviewing things or providing feedback. But why does Morgan have to be the odd girl out? No one says she can't have an opinion, but why does she explain it like such a bimbo?

She is behaving like a stereotype. A stereotype including "valley girls" or women who behave flippantly, or female sports watchers that don't know what they are talking about.

Do I care about being mysogonist with jokes in this case? Absolutely not.

wtf is her deal anyway?? She's a chick! Out of any of the big 3, she SHOULD like Nintendo, not the HD consoles which appeal 99% to male audiences. Maybe she's a lesbo or something..

(sorry if I offended any potential ladiez on here :P)

Thanks to the wonders of modern medicine, we're all potential ladiez here!

....my opinion that she's entitled to her opinion...


Your speech is as free as hers. Her right to her opinion in no way removes your right to yours (your opinion being that she's an idiot). The whole point of free speech is so we can criticize when we find fault and voice our disagreements rather than getting shot for dissidence.

 

I am actually respecting Adam Sessler more and more. Both him and Webb (and everyone else on G4) are tools when on script, but whenever he is being spontaneous he shows actual intelligence and knowledge of gaming. Everyone should go watch him hate on metacritic (it should be on Youtube somewhere). I mean, Morgan says three sentences, all of them "Nintendo sucks because they are Nintendo, only blind fanboys of Nintendo could possibly like them" and Adam intelligently makes points about the conference.

LOL Man the bit where she's like "I can get more out of mature titles on other consoles" simply because it's on a Nintendo console... OH MAN I don't think my palms are big enough for a facepalm of that magnitude.  

As a side note, I really thought she was attractive back when she was on the screen savers and had her real nerdy girl look, and was really informative on gaming and tech... now she looks like a bimbo and what's up with that hair... the cute redhead in that video beats the pants off her now XD

Basically:

"I, like didn't, like EVER like Nintendo, so, yeah, I don't like their conference."

"Mature games don't work on Nintendo platforms since I'm a dumb trolling bitch."

She's probably screwing the crew there to remain employed.

Morgan Webb, she's currently a game "reviewer" on the show "X-Play" on the G4 channel

She used to be a real reviewer on the real X-Play on TechTV and a lot cuter back then see?

But now she's a mouthpiece of G4 and seems to doll herself up cause she gets the viewers and then says outrageous things cause it gets even more views, when back then she was really genuine and less paraded on every show in the network.
