I think it got creepy when the word '******' got thrown in...poor Christina, she's probably just READING this and feeling dirty.

She is one of the reasons I love the gaming industry, she's obviously a gamer girl. And a very attractive one at that. This proves that female gamers can indeed be hot. She is just one example.
Right. And it's very important that girl gamers be attractive because, hey, if they were ugly, they'd be worthless.

Whats wrong with complimenting on someone we saw? I see no creepiness in that.
Frankly, I think it's two fold:
For one, the developers didn't go on there to be 'checked out', they went on there to demo a game. I think making any comments about their appearance is uncalled for.
Secondly, it's about the internet equivalent of making cat calls. It just reinforces the stereotype of most gamers being socially awkward teenagers.
Heck, even if you are a socially awkward teenager you should feel a bit embarassed.

Well she quoted one of my posts before! That's almost like we made out!

They wouldn't be worthless at playing the game. They just probably wouldn't have threads like this started about them.

Well, flattery aside, she has been extremely close to the game and very kind to the community, since the old forums, always providing information, sometimes even willing to answer a few questions. She is clearly dedicated and good at what she does, which in itself, says a lot about her personality (gaming skills is obviously a nice plus).

Ignore them.
It's perfectly normal.
Now if we start a group about it that would be weird.
Who's with me!

In all seriousness if you become a public figure you have to expect to get some results like this thread. Now are they like politician/celebrity public? Nope but in our eyes they may as well be celebrities. Now how many ppl fawn over Paris Hilton or Jessica Simpson. Or any other female celebrity in the spotlight. I think it's the same concept just she happens to be a gamer and game developer.

This thread is hilarious.
Especially since it's just word of mouth with no pictures.
Still...funny.

I guess now one can't even compliment a woman on her looks with out criticism? I loved that they took the time to show us the game, and I thank them both. A compliment is not creepy.halO bendeR wrote...

A group would need pics of her. And hopefully better ones than the one I found via Google. I didn´t find her hot on that.

No, if Christina were unattractive, someone would start a thread about THAT instead. At the end of the day, what matters is how she looks, not that she's a gamer.

She's kinda cute. She's no Olivia Munn. But she's cute.

You've apparently missed the last 40 years. Seriously, do you also whistle and howl at women when you drive by them under the assumption that they're just thrilled with the attention?

Not at all. I think the developers all are geniuses for their games. I think that if any post were made and had she not been attractive it would have been stating how cool the gameplay was....i don't think the fans would say anything about appearance because they have respect for bioware.
I don't think you give the posters on this forum enough credit.

I have to agree, this topic is just pathetic. Calling Norman a ''gamer girl'' and ''hot''. This is about as stupid as it gets, and yes, that is intended offensively.

Actually I find it to be just the opposite, a thread was going to be made either way, so her attractiveness is irrelevant. For crying out loud I saw a thread about poop vents yesterday. People will make threads about anything.
And yes, the only reason I posted was to say "poop vents".
