This was the background on my computer for nearly a year. I love this image.

The worst part is that they thought they were just coming up with a good justification for the gating mechanic....  Talk abut Unfortunate Implications.

Nice one, Panda -- unuaually cheerful for us.  :3

Honestly, I don't really buy into what I said there. The entire MOM thing with him wasn't really a sexist thing, though it's easy to pretend otherwise. It's just stupidity all around and a commanding officer who is various shades of incompetent.

I think it's subtle, and unintentional, but legitimately there -- if it's only a side-effect of using an all-male cast to counterpoint Samus.  Anyway, we're wandering enough that I'm suspecting we might want to split this out again if we keep chatting about it, but consider:

If the grizzled incompetent commander who unlocked power-ups was an old woman instead of an old man...?

It wouldn't have the sexist subtones, but it'd still come off as retarded and demeaning to the character.  It also implies a knowledge of her entire set of equipment that really is eyebrow raising given the lack of such equipment in their own gear.  It was really a terrible idea, especially when applied to defensive gear.
Well, Goodbye.

I disbelieve.

Yomiko would have a sudden heart attack at losing so many books.  :P

It's plausible.  They're the books in her bag, not the ones she's got hidden in her coat.  >_>
