Turbine engines are nothing new at all. But if you read Popular Science and the mass media you'd think it was a fabulously new idea.
In fact, most diesel locomotives today are turbine powered.
This is not new at all. It's so not new, it's already standard practice in the industry. Trains are turbine powered, today, now. So are helicopters.
Geez.
You are an aspiring "feminist" female game developer and you've never heard of ROBERTA WILLIAMS.
Right on, sweety. You go girl.
Roberta will still be one of my heros and you may have yours. That clear enough? Maybe go study up on her history and realize what you've missed out on? Something that by your own descriptions you would've probably heard of if not for the overshadowing trashgirl steevie?
There is this festering stinkhole of trashiness that keeps popping up on my screen and I would like to let it/them feel the burn of being so goddamned annoying and persistent. Go away, Romero. Your recurring schemes are getting annoying. There are a whole bunch of people who given half the chances Romero has had would've done something with their lives rather than squandering it all on fake-breasted skanks and pocket-freaking-pool. Your woman nauseates me, you nauseate me, your software is really gay. Do some damned work.
This point is, chiQmilla - let me see if I can say this as delicately and civilly as possible, with all due respect to the parties in question:
Trash-glamour-attention-playboy-bleach-silicone sl*t "developers" like Killcreek divert so much attention away from other women developers that SHE is who everyone thinks of, SHE is who is a "role model" for girls who want to enter the industry.
Teh ramero is a disease. It's sad (to say the very least) that he and his showgirl have taken so much attention that Roberta Williams doesn't even come up in a list or discussion of woman developers.
When in fact Roberta is not only a great developer, and a good looking woman who lives a dignified public life - she is one of the greatest PC game developers of ANY sex. The themes, moods and imagery of the early King's Quests STILL stick in my mind! I think Roberta started in the 70s on Apple II BTW - she was there all along, molding the industry. She rightfully should be someone mentioned after the likes of Grace Hopper in a list of women in computing.
Instead we're stuck with romero's playboy trash and steed's crackwhores as role models for how to get the attention of game publishers. This feeds directly into the minds of young women who may be interested in the industry, which is what you seem to care about. Not to mention that it compounds the already poorly formed conceptions of women that many young male gamers have.
Like I said, romero and his ilk are a disease that damage the image of the whole industry. The message is, not only do you need to sell your body to get into the game, but that you probably need to color your hair and obtain grotesquely large fake breasts and pose for playboy to glamorize your impotent pimp.
That's beyond nauseating. Salon needs to do a story about less-than-trashy developers who are less-than-destructive and less-than-self-aggrandizing-to-the-maximum-possibl e-degree. Except - as in anything, all the greats tend to be a little more humble.
If you are at all a feminist, or even just interested in promoting female developers, I don't see why killcreek and teh romero are not your arch enemies. It's over the top. There's nothing wrong with meeting at work. This is not a sweet couple who found each other through gaming and have joined together to do great things. This is "sleaze".
Come on. Guys who like their women to pose nude and get fake boobs and bleach their hair are more worried about impressing the public than anything else. Aggrandize this, Romero.
(yep I'm just a bigmouthed jerk who's envious of the opportunities Romero squanders for auto-erotic potential and fake boobs - no real personal interest aside from despising what I see)
Plus lte me show yuo why i am nto gay. Poeple say i am gay becuase i make a game called "hyperspace delivary boysth" but i am nto gay becuase i have teh riceburner and teh hottee. Whta do you have huh? Did yuo write Quaek? I did.

Roberta is still making games I think - it's a little surpising and sad that her name didn't come up in this discussion until the troll posted it.
She did essentially create the PC gaming industry as we know it. She's responsible for the King's Quest series.
Killcreek has made, to my knowledge, cleavage.
