HorsePLAY! EP82 - Bungie Done Goofed - Female Characters In Video Games

*** DEALS!!! *** Amazon Prime Day July 15th, Ultimate XBox Sale, Game Maker Humble Bundle, EA Origin On The House (Zuma's Revenge), and MORE! This special episode brought to you by ShinyPrints.com - check out the new Fun Photo Maker collage app. Now in BETA! http://shinyprints.com/collage This month's Games With Gold on XBox One and XBox 360 are Assassin's Creed Black Flag + Massive Chalice, and Plants Vs Zombies, respectively.. BTW. Obi overslept during a power nap so we are graced by the presence of IBLoud from Gods Of Mayhem, now part of #TheGANG! http://godsofmayhem.com We discuss how Bungie has had a terrible track record since leaving Microsoft. Activision must be impacting the decision making behind and quality of Destiny content. Taken King is promising but will the recent backpedals be enough? Luke Smith made a fool of himself in the EuroGamer interview but was he completely at fault or did they push too hard? Oh, and the Red Bull debacle adds to issues with shallow content and poor price points. Women in video games. We discuss female toons in games. Our favorite female protagonists and video games that at least let you play as female characters. Mass Effect, Bioshock Infinite, The Last Of Us, Tomb Raider, Smite, League Of Legends, Alisia Dragoon, Mirror's Edge, Wet, Destiny, Borderlands, The Walking Dead (Telltale Games), and many more make the cut!
