Guitar Hero: Lesbian Anthems - Dream Release

Ok so needless to say this isn't a 'real' release, its a dream release. Guitar Hero is one of those classic games that seems to be on a slippery slope to hell. With each release the songs become more mundane, less recognizable and less worth your gaming pennies. So, we thought we'd have a little fun with the series and collate our own Guitar Hero: Lesbian Edition for this site.



Feel free to add and discuss just what titles you would want to be included (in the comments section), should the day ever come when Guitar Hero: Lesbian Edition was on the cards. If we can come up with a longer list that would be fantastic and look at it this way, perhaps you'll discover some guitar chicks you hadn't heard of previously.

Pink Girl Gaming Accessories!!

Pink, yes it means so many things--not out pop stars who dislike 'Bush' (make of that what you will), color perfect for gender stereotyping, a pale red, slightly flushed cheeks.. and girl gaming accessories. Yes of course we're going to have a little bent out rant about that last one. Firstly let's say, we know not ALL women (yes including lesbians) find pink accessories to be irritating, we're not speaking for everyone, that would be silly. We are speaking for some however.



So why the rage? Well, WolfKing (aka maker of gaming input devices) today announced it is customizing its award-winning WARRIOR gaming pad and TROOPER gaming mouse to appeal to female PC gamers. The specially designed gaming devices will be sold exclusively through Dell. "Specially designed", oh goody!.. how are they specially designed for girl gamers... aren't our hands the same as guys, four fingers, one thumb - CHECK! .. strange I wonder what they 'designed' for us lucky 'special' ladies of gaming!! YAY!! They added "a Flamingo Pink accent gradient on top of a full stealth black matte finish" and now "it offers all the functionality of the WARRIOR, but with a feminine touch."



“Female gamers have an incredibly high set of standards when it comes to quality as well as design,” said Bob Costlow, director of sales, WOLFKING. “You can’t just paint something pink and say it’s for girls. (errr, isn't that what you've just done Bob?-Ed) The Girl Gamer products give women access to fully functioning, hardcore gaming devices, but with an aesthetic touch.”.. ohh.. 'aesthetic touch' we'd have probably called it an 'asshole touch'.. but each to their own.

Female Characters in Mass Effect

Just wanted to highlight our special article about female characters in Mass Effect on the Xbox 360. If you're looking for an awesome title with more short haired women than you'd see at Lilith Fair, Mass Effect is going to be the game for you. We'll be updating this article regularly until we've got all the main female characters included.



The scary thing is, these aren't all the female characters we've seen so far in the game, these are just the ones that you will deal with on a deeper level. There are plenty of others that wander the worlds. Any questions about Mass Effect, just stick them in the comments section and we'll hopefully be able to answer them for you. We hope you like our exclusive article 'Female Characters in Mass Effect'.

Cooking Mama 2: Dinner With Dykes

Looks like your last lesbian dinner party doesn't it, there's Maureen with her specs on the left, right next to some young bi-curious girl she met at the gym. Next to them is Cassy, she's not happy about the bi girl. Then there's the mad host Sherry, wearing a ridiculous pink hat, Nina with her cap on backwards, because she likes to pretend she's Max from Go Fish. Lucy, not a lesbian, she just likes hanging out at lesbian dinner parties for the drama, and lastly far right, Katie, with her new specs---everyone told her to get the thick rimmed rectangular style befitting 'geek dykes', but no! Fashion disaster, she went for the round ones and now looks like the milkybar kid.



Phew! Who knew 'Cooking Mama 2: Dinner With Friends' would have so many dykes in it! The sequel on the DS will feature 80 original international recipes, some old favourites and the chance to create all-new customised dishes, 150 fast and fun mini games to challenge player cooking expertise. You can also offer dishes cooked to one of the many characters who will judge it for flavour and presentation--you know that bi girl isn't going to like anything with tofu in it, afterall she probably prefers real meat. Cooking Mama 2: Dinner With Dykes will be available early 2008 on Nintendo DS.

Guita Hero III - The Death of Dyke Rock

Two words that should strike fear in the hearts of women rockers who kick ass: 'augmentation mammoplasty', though apparently not in the minds of the dead heads that reproduced Judy Nails as some double D-cup dimwit in Guitar Hero III. Don't even get us started on what they've done with Pandora! What the hell happened post Guitar Hero II? These two ladies clearly took to snorting powdered substances and opted for a complete change in physical appearance and personality.



A little twittering bird tells us one of the people on the development team behind these characters was a gay lady.. till the Neversoft lot took over and decided the cool rock chicks needed an injection of the feminine (even stated in-game!). We mourn for Judy and Pandora, two cool girls with attitude that seem to have moved to a dimly lit street corner in Stepford, Connecticut, awaiting their next customer.

Lara Re\Visioned With Red Latex Henchwoman

If you're a fan of Lady Croft (and what self respecting lesbian isn't), this is for you. The final episode of GameTap's RE\Visioned Tomb Raider animated series is now live at their website. The episode 'A Complicated Woman' emphasizes Lara's... well ok, it emphasizes her breasts, but also her guile and sustainability, which is what we enjoyed about it, obviously!



Adding to the female quantity of this episode is a female katana wielding henchwoman in a skintight red latex bodysuit, which we hear is top of the winter fashion collection in HenchWoman Fashionista this month. The RE\Visioned Tomb Raider season featured 10 episodes in all. Season two has just been announced and will feature various Activision games heroes, including Pitfall Harry - a sort of male pixelated pre-cursor to the Croft.

Xbox Update & Carla Valenti

We're combining this news rather than drawing out two reports that are related. Firstly Carla Valenti, as female games characters go there are a few that stand out from the crowd and she is one of them. Carla appeared in the 2005 title Fahrenheit (aka Indigo Prophecy). How is this related to an Xbox Update? Well the looming December 4 update will include the ability to download original Xbox games. One of the games that will appear with the update is Fahrenheit (aka Indigo Prophecy).



If this somehow managed to pass you by, it's well worth a look. No Carla isn't a lesbian, but she is one cool kick ass female games character. Anyway her boxing scenes and white vest top and underwear scenes are bound to appeal to the tomboy in all of us. The original Xbox games will set you back around 1200 Points a piece. A little annoying given you may well be able to pick up a tangible copy for less in the sales bins. Fahrenheit is defnitely worth a look.

Get 'The Shaft' and Control Your Wii

Wrapping our lady loving hands / fingers around a shaft is the last thing us lesbian ladies would think about doing, but this might have us changing our minds. The rather phallically titled Wii controller 'The Shaft' is brought to you by Overline Gaming and released mid December. It is by their own admission "The only arcade style joystick for the Nintendo Wii Virtual Console".



Ok so why do we even care? Well we got to thinking, this is of interest for two reasons. Firstly, it looks like a vibrator and it's called The Shaft, which in itself appealed to our immature sense of humor today. Secondly you never see companies releasing 'The Vag' or 'The Honey Box'.. with a fire button so sensitive only a woman will know how to truly control it. Hell why not get Eve Ensler in, release one called 'The C*nt' and soak up all the free press. Just a thought. There are images of the pink, black and white Shaft at the WiiShaft website.. sounds multi cultural or painful.

Mass Effect Banned in Singapore?

It seems those in Singapore aren't fans of lesbian sex scenes between high ranking commanders and alien species, actually they're not fans of gay people at all. According to some sources, Mass Effect has been banned in Singapore because of the inclusion of those saucy love scenes. Section 377A of the Singapore Penal Code criminalizes even private acts of homosexuality. This year the law was kept, which means homosexuality is 'illegal' in the region.



News then that the girl on girl action in Mass Effect has led to a ban shouldn't come as too much of a shock. Singapore has previously banned numerous games including most of the GTA series and BioShock. Though we believe the BioShock ban was later changed. Yes we are living in the year 2007, sad isn't it.

Mass Effect Lesbian Love Scene

We either slipped into a geek induced coma after seeing this, or we were so pissed our Lara 2022 item never made it onto Kotaku that we just didn't see it. Whatever the case, thanks to 'AHR' we've now got the lesbian love scene from Mass Effect right here for you all to dribble over.. from the lips... on your faces... now now.
