E3 2005 Booth Babe Hall of Shame
DanAckerman writes "GameGal.com offers some of the out-of-control examples of Booth Babe excess seen every year (five years running) at E3 in their annual Hall of Shame gallery." From the article: "They're smiling on the outside, but three days of snapping Poloroids with sweaty game geeks leads these girls to swear off Guild Wars forever."
Boothbabes faking a sleepover party? WTF! Now I'm embarrased of being a gamer...
At least there was a pillow fight, right? Everybody knows no babe sleepover is complete without a pillow fight.
No sig
Seems pretty damn tame to me. I've seen more "out of control" dress on Britney-wannabe teenagers down at the local mall. Don't tell me Ashcroft's new job is webmaster for gamegal.com!
Mom,
I told you to stop posting to slashdot! Please keep our family life out of this!
What are we going to do tonight Brain?
This...this is how nerds would dress up their women...if only they had women.
And names? If nerds could name their women?
Grepina! The goddess of search!
That may not be a big deal to you, but for most people their body is sacred and private.
Ever been to a beach?
Toatlly agree!! It get's even more insane when they dress up as the girl they want. When I leaving the theater after seeing Star Wars there was a uber nerd dressed as Princess Leia, buns and all. But the Leia had a beard, so I ponderd, umm must be French..

Well, let's see.
The wizardess gets an automatic -1 on any male opponent's Concentration - so opposing spellcasters cannot complete their spells as easily.
The gals faking the sleepover - well, at least they are getting to sit down. Anybody who has worked a trade show will tell you standing up in the booth all day WILL make your feet sore - especially if you are wearing dress shoes when you usually weare sneakers (I speak from experience!)
www.eFax.com are spammers
From the article:
We know it's tough being an actress/model in LA, but there's got got to be better gigs than pretending to have a sleepover party in the middle of a trade show.
Quoth Lord Dimboress:
"We couldn't even wear thongs! Like OMFG! Not having something in my butt was the most difficult thing ever! I sooo hope I get paid for this."
Don't think that a small group of dedicated individuals can't change the world. It's the only thing that ever has.
Does she have friends?
Can you hook me up?

Have you ever been to an Auto Show? Or a football game?
Oh, wait, those are only for low-life shmucks who aren't ashamed of being attracted to women and aren't smart enough to spend all their time toying with computers.
A modern, refined individual, such as one whose declared hobby is 'video games' surely cannot indulge in such vulgar interests.
Who's really being exploited?
EA workers who are being managed by the fat bald guy?
What, with like, a "sky" and stuff?
I cannot believe this shot Hahaha!

Because Men and Women like looking at attractive females.
And with good reason...
Women are pretty. Men are not. Simple as that.
If you want people's attention, something pretty to look at usually works better than something which is not. That much should be obvious to anybody.
Personally, I go out of my way to buy products which use beautiful women to promote them, because I want to encourage companies to continue the practice... I don't know what the hell I'm going to do with a box of "Intuition" leg razor cartriges, but there's a principle to uphold here, dammit!
