Lit Review


Male and Female Roles Literature Reviews

The Reviews focusing on gender and technology both had very much the same things to say about gender preferences on a more in depth level. A study was conducted to find out what women preferred in games and the findings were really not so different from the titles men said they enjoyed. When women were interviewed many of their favorites included games such as, The Sims, Prince of Persia, Halo, Final Fantasy, and The Legend of Zelda. It wasn't that women didn't enjoy the same games men did, it was that they were more direct in what they wanted. Women were more interested in “the presence of a good plot, rich characters, choice in how they perused goals, freedom of self expression, novelty in challenges, immersion in virtual environment and pick up and play flexibility.” Statistics showed that men tended to care less about the plot and self expression and more in the options of how they were able to kill things.

I apologize for the shorites the past few days,

Don't forget to breathe.
