The Berserker

I've been playing a game called Gears of War for the last week or so, and not since Oblivion has a game been so much damn fun. Anyway, in the first chapter of the game, there is this boss you encounter called the "Berserker" and this is one massive bad ass boss. It's huge, hulking, domineering, angry, ugly, mean, destroys everything in its path and its sole purpose is to crush mankind. It's also female. Yup, that thing is a female. I haven't laughed so hard in ages. Now, I don't know if the guys at Epic games are anti-feminists or not, but I do find it mighty telling that they made the man crushing beast a female. They could have easily made it a male, or just a beast without a sex classification, but no, they went out of their way to make it a female. Subtle meaning there, or am I just reaching? Regardless, it's so much fun to blast it to bits with a kick ass weapon called the Hammer of Dawn. Berserker, Andrea Dworkin, Germaine Greer....what's the difference? They are all ugly, mean spirited, angry and want to crush man as a species. Here, here Epic for making a great game. Go get Gears of War!!
