Imagine Ubisoft Getting it This Wrong

Oh no no no no no!!! You see, it's things like this that REALLY irk the girl gamer. The 'Imagine' series are aimed at the girl gaming market. What makes these games even more annoying is the fact Ubisoft claim to have researched this market and they're only making what is wanted. Which begs the question, wanted by who exactly?

The answer may well be 5 year olds, but then we have to call into question the sanity of any mother purchasing titles such as these that perpetuate female stereotypes from the 1950s. Claudine Beaumont of the Daily Telegraph has an interesting article about this series and it features Tracy from our sister site Thumb Bandits .com, so get over there and read it, then fume a little before leaving a comment here.
