Don’t you wish they all could be geek and gamer girls?

Actor / ~~short guy~~ writer Seth Green participated in a funny parody video to the tune of Katy Perry’s “California Girls”. I don’t think I need to say more:

WUT UP N00B!

Pay to play games with girls

When noctis sent me a link this morning I couldn’t believe it. IGN have launched a new service called “GameCrush” where you can pay something like $7 to play a game with a girl. This is how it works:

Men browse online profiles of women that describe themselves as either “flirty” or “dirty” and select one for a virtual date. For around $7, the woman will voice or video chat with you for 6 to 10 minutes. Women are then rated by the men. Higher-rated women receive more prominent placement and will end up earning more money.

LOL!! I don’t even know what to say about this. My first thoughts were “ooh how do I cash in on this” (sarcastically) but really I doubted that guys would actually pay for such a thing. I was wrong. Upon visiting the GameCrush website I found that it was down due to the overwhelming response.

The logic behind this idea is that it’s the same as buying a girl a drink at the bar. Essentially you’re buying the opportunity to chat her up. However that drink also contributes to her beer goggles, thus increasing your chances of taking her home. On xbox Live however I can imagine that it’s only an internet thing, no different than a camgirl. When are they gonna come out with some one-handed controllers?

Ok, time for me to undercut. For the low low price of $5 i’ll play a Quake Live duel with you ~~which you’ll probably win~~. Heheh. (Just kidding, I’m easy, I give away games for free… can you believe it?).

Would you pay to play games with girls? Leave a comment below or tweet your thoughts @HelloLiefje

Gigabyte screws Gaming Girls

Some of you may remember when I made a post about Fox and trito coming to visit in Cologne, where I had asked for votes for trito for the gigabyte gaming girl contest. No? Well then you probably remember the boobs journal I made about it on ESR.

While some may not agree with the misleading trap I set for potential voters, the competition was basically an online popularity contest and i’m pretty sure that trito did deserve all those votes as she was clearly the most seasoned professional of the bunch.

The prize for the regional winners was supposed to be some hardware from GIGABYTE. Voting was supposed to end by the end of July or August, but we’re well into November now and the website hasn’t changed at all. No information has been given to the “winners” and no further information on the website has been released. Furthermore, there was also supposed to be a second round of voting, with each winner from each region to become the ultimate gaming girl… or something.

I know that economic times are tough but if they wanted to pull a marketing stunt like this at least they should keep people updated. Apparently they are not responding to emails from the contestants themselves either. Shady!
