In general, gaming companies tend to support families playing together above the "integrity" of their games, but they also have to think about adult consumers as well. I understand the fact that a lot of those cards - yes, even the Flasher - are meant to draw attention to the absurdity of a lot of comics and not actually celebrate the stereotypes. Then again, I'm an educated 26 year old woman. It's good to hear Jordan is smart about what's appropriate for his age, however!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5940652467400931908.post-60664614043312723332013-01-06T12:46:29.291-05:002013-01-06T12:46:29.291-05:00I agree with you there.

It wouldn't be the first time that type of incident has been portrayed that way in entertainment media. Which doesn't make it acceptable at all.

I am still angry over the "Flasher" card, but am thankful that consumers like you take a stand and let the manufacturer know that it is not acceptable. There is no parody for violence against women.Heather Moreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05751958188888903294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5940652467400931908.post-71104016354528856952013-01-05T12:51:11.607-05:002013-01-05T12:51:11.607-05:00I understand that perspective, though I don't ...I understand that perspective, though I don't think that, overall, the pictures go that far. They are cartoony and are no worse than comic books. That said., we avoid a lot of comic books. We didn't know what some of the pictures were like until we had bought and opened the game.

Sounds like these cards are soft porn. Just my opinion.<br />Debbiehttp://www.lifegivingnook.comnoreply@blogger.com
