RE: Sexism in games.
Well to be fair, the dudes are in sporting gear, rather than arbitrarily tight/revealing clothing. And how many lingering bum-shots d'you get of them?

Lollipop Chainsaw, as I saw it, dodges the issue by taking the whole thing to an extreme in order to poke fun at the perviness or sexism or whatever prevalent in games these days.

Basically it seems to me that it's all marketed towards a certain demographic. That's not to say that people outside of that demographic can't enjoy it. The targeting of, I dunno, 14-30yr old males results in a skewed perception of women is all. They're very much seen as "the other" rather than someone to identify with. And yeah, a lot of the time are treated as objects of desire rather than actual people.

HAVING SAID ALL THAT.... I'm not saying games aren't fun or that 100% of them are morally reprehensible or anything like that.
