IGN shared with us (the world wide web) the ins and outs of a new ‘dating’ that is supposed to revolutionize finding your gaming soul mate.Stupid little boys can pay 8.95 to play games with a hot girl for 10 minutes.The girls get paid and the guys get what they always get. Nada. The guys who sign up will be called Players, while the girls are called Playmates..er we mean Play Dates <insert eye roll here>. The girls who are more popular will earn better placement on the site and therefore earn more money. In short, turn a good trick and get paid more…so you can trick more...so you can earn more, so you trick more…..The girls can have their status be flirty or dirty and you can play casual games together or even delve into some Halo (they plan to add to their catalog as they go along).
I wouldn’t normally begrudge any girl signing up to make cash, if the guys are stupid enough to pay a girl just to talk to them, then they deserve what they get.What worries me are the problems that are sure to arise.What happens with underage girls who realize they can make a little cash and start flashing their stash? Can you say child porn?
To add insult to injury, the company plans to use some of the more popular girls to create what they think is the equivalent of Ubisofts Frag Dolls.Only these girls won’t be so ‘lady like’.The Frag Dolls represents strong women, who are gamers and just happen to be beautiful.These chics, as they have described them, are nothing more than tricks with Gamecrush.com acting as a cheap pimp.Are you people serious over there?To quote Blaster, IGN are you ever TRYING anymore?Ugh!
Anyway, if you’re that hard up to find a gamer date and can’t just meet women the normal way, feel free to drop by, they go live in a few hours.By the way if you’re planning to do that, we’d like to tell you, we think you’re pathetic and you’ll be living in your mom’s basement for the rest of your life.That is all.
