She's already shutting her shit down and trying to run off with the money. No real need to deconstruct her bullshit amymore

>Did Anita deliberately misrepresent

Yes, she has done this over and over. See Hitman for just one example

Anyone?

Okay, you know what? I'll have a look. Can't believe I'm going to reinstall this shit.

Oh God… it's a bitch to launch (protip: disable optimizations in DARE.INI and enable V-Sync if it doesn't load) and you can't skip the cutscenes… it all comes back to me now. Anyway.

Unlike what she did with Hitman (and GTA, and Dinosaur Planet, and other), she didn't misrepresent the Prince of Persia's camera.

The camera is stuck when colliding with walls and floors (nothing unusual), but even if you stand next to a ledge and try to get a bottom-top view, the camera gets closer to the character and make a close up so his elbows fall out of the screen (that way, his body doesn't obstruct the view when you're looking for an edge to grab, or seek where you're supposed to climb next). These rules apply no matter how you stand, or where the camera is located.

Regarding her video, she misses the point that Tomb Raider was one of the first game to attempt that kind of climbing gameplay (so the camera was wonky at best). But more importantly you can see Lara's body completely because the game is a plateformer (you have to be able to watch your steps), Core Design did the exact same thing with Project Eden if I recall correctly (they even included feet for the first-person view, which is not standard for FPS)

Gears of War is a shooter, that's why you only need to see the torso. Same applies to games like Cold Fear, Resident Evil 4: the camera gets closer to the character as soon as you enter aiming mode because it's easier to shoot this way.

Let's get this straight: your butt is located half-way through your body. It's the main pivot, it's what connects your upper body and legs, it's normal that you need to see it in a game that requires you to see where both your legs and arms are, in order to move properly.

If the board supports FLV, I can probably capture that if you need a proof.

The stupidity of choosing Batman as an example is astounding. Batman is a cultural icon who wears a fucking cape.

I like how she barely mentions the Metal gear series, one of the most popular out there, and you are constantly getting a face full of Snake and Raiden's asses.

>>watching Anita at all for any reason

Anita is a good show

If you guys manage to record any footage, just upload it via http://tinyupload.com/.

I'm glad we have this thread so I can get a dozen people's identical opinions on this pressing issue.

Had to use another service, because TinyUpload was being an ass (pun probably intended). Here you go:

How the camera behaves when you're standing (cuts mid-waist)

How the camera behaves when you're on a ledge (comes back to horizontal automatically as it shows where you're heading – but you can still force low-angle)

I'm not huge on third person games, but I may have a few other games where you can see male character's butt if you're interested (look at the power suit in Crysis, or the way the characters in Spelunky wiggle their magnificent butt as they climb up ropes)

YES!

That's the fucking point!

FemFreq is a proffessional troll cashing in on outrafe and cynicism, she aims for people to try to correct her because that's what makes her money.

To make it clear:

This one time, concerning Prince of Persia,

she didn't misrepresent the way the camera works

Misrepresenting Hitman Absolution (women as background decoration part 1):

>[talking about tutorials] the game makers have set up a series of possible scenarios involving vulnerable eroticized female characters. Players are then invited to explore and exploit those situations during their play-through.

Clip shown: Hitman Absolution about mid-way through the game (no women are used as punching bags during the tutorial). The video clip also shows two penalty ("Pacification -140") as she beats up those women, it's not what I call "inviting" player to punch them, you're not rewarded for doing so.

Misrepresenting Grabbed by the Ghoulies (Damsel in distress part 2):

>it's dangerously irresponsible to be creating games in which players are encouraged and even required to perform violence

>Even though most of the games we're talking about don't explicitly condone violence against women

Clip shown: an optional minigame section from Grabbed by the Ghoulies. The missing clip coming right after the winning fanfare shows: "how could you treat your love in such a way? you beat me in just 29 seconds, so you get platinum! I need a bubble bath and lie-down!"

Misrepresenting Dinosaur Planet (Damsel in distress part 1):

>The tale of how Krystal went from protagonist of her own epic adventure

Clip shown: E3 footage, minus all the sections involving Sabre, the other "one of the two playable protagonists" (as said earlier). Sabre (who's male) was required for the other half of the game (you had to play with both characters – it's almost like saying Zombies Ate My Neighbors was Julie's very own adventure). So no, Dinosaur Planet is not Krystal's very own adventure.
