I know I can't be the only gal.

So true. My sisters loved The Sims, and even got the Pets and Vacation expansions. I'd say a lot of girls are really attracted to it because A: There's little violence and all that good stuff B. You can be all mushy with the characters and have romances and all that stuff and C. It brings back memories of their younger years. After all, the working title was orinally Sim Dollhouse, and it basically is a genderally ambiguous and more complicated version of a dollhouse. I think people in general just want to and would love to have complete control over something, and The Sims fulfilled that demand. It's a game for all ages, I guess. I dunno, I got bored of it.

Well, trust me that you're not. Back in '99 this gal had had her StarCraft peak, with a two months presence in the Ladder top 10 on BattleNet. [SGM]Xenomorph....

Ok, everybody thought I was a guy. So what. I don't play to date people.

I think if you are a girl and you play Starcraft then you are awesome. Starcraft is not a "man's game"... Its a perfect game, it's the game to end all wars, which means everyone should play it. It would teach the world a lot. If you are a human and you play Starcraft, thank you.
