Interview with the Frag Dolls

Posted by Zonk on Tuesday January 4, 2005 @04:37AM from the now-that's-a-good-gig dept.

Staci writes "KillerBetties.com, a site with a focus on the female gamer, is running a interview with three of the ladies that comprise the UbiSoft sponsored FragDolls FPS Team. Rhoulette, Jinx and Katscratch sat down with Nicole of KillerBetties to talk about the controversy surrounding their existence and connection with UbiSoft, how they feel about representing female gamers and a few other personal tidbits." From the article: "We wouldn't be the Frag Dolls if it weren't for Ubisoft, so promoting games is certainly a distinct part of what we do. However, all of us have our dreams for where we would like to see girl gamers a year from now. And as girl gamers ourselves, we can't really help but represent some of their interests and desires."

So it's beyond consideration that there exists a person who thinks that Splinter Cell is a great game?(It is)

Splinter Cell may be good (subjective) but there's no fucking way it should ever be anybody's favorite game of all time. Shit, it doesn't even make the top 100 lists. Ever. Making that claim is spurious enough without adding the fact that these people are being subsidized by Ubisoft to play games. If the check was big enough, I'm sure they'd say the Dukes of Hazzard game was their favorite game of all time.

What's wrong with First-person Shooters on consoles?

The horrid controller, the limited maps, the limited number of players, the crappy framerate on a tv set... all this has been covered on /. about a thousand times by now.
