Sexy64 is first all-male gaming league

by Justin McElroy { May 29th 2007 at 8:00AM }

It feels like the world has been crying out for this for ages, and now, the Mega64 pioneers have tapped into one of the most underappreciated markets in the industry: Gamers who are also guys. "Guy gamers" as some of the game media have started referring to them. Now, these Mario-loving men finally have an outlet of their own, an all-male gaming league where they can explore their desires free from prying lady eyes: Sexy64.

No, before you ask, we're still not really comfortable with the way the guys in this introduction video are being objectified. We still wait in breathless anticipation for the day when men can transform, butterfly-like, from sinewy muscle factories who play the occasional video game between car waxing and shirtless lawn mowing into simply gamers. But still, we applaud this first step towards equality. As they say, you have to crawl on the sand, muscles rippling below tanned skin before you can walk.

this is the greatest thing ever!

people definitely need to wake up and realize that guys can be gamers too. we're not all about eating and working on cars. we can kick video game butt right along with the girls!

Jamie @ May 29th 2007 10:29AM

Uh-huh, right. The only guys that play videogames are gay, ugly, or both.

Aberu @ May 29th 2007 11:03AM

I'm still waiting for the all gay, all black, all male, all cancer-ridden, league.

I like the Mega 64 guys, but how that video was edited is a complete lift from Tim & Eric Awesome Show Great Job. See Mike Mahanahan's Child Clown Outlet on Ytube for comparison.
A funny concept and well played no doubt, but that's a pretty glaring "homage".

Rare Hare @ May 29th 2007 11:51AM

But in all seriousness, this is hilarious. I think what really makes this awesome to me is my personal disgust with all girl gaming clans and leagues such as "PMS". Gimme a break.

@11

I thought it was similar to Tim and Eric as well, but the Mega64 guys have been doing this for years. In both cases, they're just parodies of low-budget shows and commercials you'd see on Public Access and the sort.

Zac @ May 29th 2007 3:31PM

I enjoy Mega64, but don't think much of Tim & Eric Boring Show Bad Job.

I'm so sick of gaming companies marketing to guys like we're guys! I mean HELLO! What, just because I'm a guy I like to have fun?! You ASSUME that I like women and explosions?!

No thanks! I'll go play some obscure title made by a company that doesn't have a competent marketing team!
