Leipzig, booth babes, video, nudity, NSFW
The picture above is about to get NSFW in one frame ... in just one frame it goes from normal marketing cosplay to borderline furry pron. GameTrailers put together a Girls Gone Wild-esque segment of all the Leipzig booth babe fit for video (which we have placed after the break). We joke, the video is very tastefully done, as tasteful as one can get editing together flesh shots meant to titillate. On some level it's great culture context, for our puritan American eyes, public displays of boobies burns us they do.
Leipzig obviously takes a different approach to displays of the female form than E3. Although it was a moot point this year, the last "real" E3 had a ban on booth babes. We re-emphasize that the video after the break is not safe for work, don't come crying to us if your boss catches you -- although, for all we know, he might be into furries.

Gotta admit, I was kinda disappointed to learn of the Booth Babe presence at PAX. PAX is supposed to be the anti-E3, and Booth Babes embody (rather voluptuously) where E3 started to go horribly, horribly wrong.
I dig hot chicks as much as 9 out of 10 of the next guys, but in these settings it just seems insulting to the fans as well as the women.

lol... first poster thinks booth babes are a bad thing!!!! the cat ladies freaked me out though.
Mr. Picklesworth @ Aug 28th 2007 12:18PM
Thank you, sir!
In my opinion, PAX should be very selective about who gets to set up any kind of a booth. It isn't a marketing zone like E3 turned into, and I really hope it stays that way. The big developers should only be doing E3-esque booths if they are particularly awesome, or of some value beyond what you get from other shows. (Panels on game design, or that Sam and Max presentation, for example).

Wow...that was the best collection of flat asses I have ever seen. If you like the carpenters special, flat as a board and easy to nail, this video is for you.

I prefer the peanut butter asses...smooth, brown, and easy to spread.
oh, I'd hit it.
Jerk Face @ Aug 28th 2007 12:03PM
That peanut butter comment is f*cking ridiculous, ha ha!

Why can't comments have more than 3 hearts????

Peanut butter?! Oh no! Shakes the Clown in tha house!

Seriously, those were some really unappealing asses. Although the girl that seemed to have the least appealing ass turned out to be one of the prettier ones (the blond chick wearing the black with racing-esque black and white checkers). She was cuuuuute :)

It was made even worse by the fact that they were all wearing those 'hot pants' shorts that are made to show off more round booties. I don't mind if a girl's got NAAAS (No Ass At All Syndrome), hell I suffer from the same unfortunate condition, but if you don't got it, then please don't try to flaunt it.
It remind me of when tight black "party pants" were in style. They looked nice on some girls. But every girl insisted on wearing them, because they were the fad, even if they looked god awful on them.
Same with Capris pants. They only work with a specific body type and fashion style. On everyone else they look dumb.
Synner @ Aug 28th 2007 5:46PM
Ok, I have to take issue of the ass thing. Sir Mix-a-lot is to blame for the current trend of having fat disgusting girls who think that having a big booty makes it ok to wear spandex in public, completely ignoring their "muffin top" I am really sickk of seeing these "hot" girls who's only thing they got going is having a fat ass... Sorry, I like my slutty 80's glam metal video sluts. Honestly WHY DO THEY EVEN MAKE spandex in larger than a size 9?

German women need to work on getting bigger/better butts...

White women in general need to work on getting bigger butts.

To be honest, I kind of regret watching that video.
Good riddance old E3.

Wow, very disappointing.

So those fully painted nude ladys were advertising Mouse Pads?

Furries representin' =D

Hell yeah!
Burnt Meatloaf @ Aug 29th 2007 5:20AM
I don't see any furries in this video. I don't see any games, either.
It's a double loss!

Anti-furries representin'
Kill it with fire

At least I'm happy with myself and don't resort to badgering others =)
OnimushaSoki @ Aug 28th 2007 11:20AM
'badgering' coming from a furry.
Ha ha... punny. XD

Furries make me sick.

[Insert male comment about German girls.]
On a more serious note, I just wanted to point out that we're more at ease about sex in Europe (like shampoo/shower cream ads with nudity), and that it's not really something outstanding to be really pointed out.
Word of the street. @ Aug 28th 2007 11:21AM
I don’t know if all Europe I mean I didn’t see any of that in Paris, London or Rome but I have been in Germany. I was surprised for the enormous amount of Sex shops they have there and I was in the tourist zone all the time.
In fact they had one In the Airport as well…
It was kind of weird.
BTW, The obligatory Furry joke.
THIS IS A FURRY, IS MADE OF SICK AND G4Y.
ThornedVenom @ Aug 28th 2007 12:22PM
To Word of the Street:
I am currently living in Paris. Come by the summertime, that's when the ads come by. ;) My point can also be proven in other points of France: the country is also famous for nude beaches. =) And even on non-nude beaches, women usually remove their tops to get a proper suntan.
But that's considered normal here.
t_m @ Aug 28th 2007 2:03PM
when i used to go to france as a kid the adverts were always much more interesting than the tv shows!
Of course, I was 12, and the flash of a breast in a shampoo commercial was very exciting back then. Luckily i've grown up, and since the operation I have my own pair to flash in the shower.
Word of the street. @ Aug 28th 2007 11:13AM
Well this is usually the kind of stuff you see on kotaku and/or 4chan followed by the comments "MOAR","SAUCE" and "I'd Hit it".
IMO this was kind of disappointing, some of them were kind of cute but that nudity scene was as sexy as the bottom of a car also for a second I thought they were men.
Grant @ Aug 28th 2007 2:38PM
agreed,
perfectly good nudity ruined by having women with a weird/fucked up body spray job. it was completely unnecessary for those girls to be topless, there was nothing attractive about it.
Radicoon @ Aug 28th 2007 11:15AM
I'd also like to point out that treating women as purely sexual objects is really offensive to me.
MD/V @ Aug 28th 2007 11:18AM
But treating raccoons as purely sexual objects? A-OK!
Justin McElroy @ Aug 28th 2007 11:48AM
Wait for it...
I'm awarding MD/V the "Confirmed Burn of the Day." You did it!
Radicoon @ Aug 28th 2007 12:02PM
Nice man, have to hand that one to you =)
Anticrawl @ Aug 28th 2007 12:02PM
Noone is treating them purely as sexual objects, just as an advertisment medium, which those women clearly fully support. If a woman wants to sell her body for ad space who are you to judge otherwise, and when a woman dresses in such a manner it would be wrong to say we are viewing them as sexual objects considering the attire is suppose to do just that. If you don't want to be lusted after wear something more conservative.

Sidepocket @ Aug 28th 2007 2:21PM
Who said he was treating Raccoons as a sexual object? He merely roll plays as one.
So you are telling me that people who roll play as Orcs in World of Warcraft are sexually attracted to Orcs?
john @ Aug 28th 2007 3:46PM
"Noone is treating them purely as sexual objects"
Did you not watch the video?
comtar @ Aug 28th 2007 11:18AM
I am suddenly reminded of the WoW joke the human female says... "Me and my girlfriends share all our clothes cause we are all the same size!"
Cause honestly, if it wasn't for they had different heads, I could swear the whole video was the same 2 or 3 chicks in every shot everyone of them had the same exact body structure. The only one who looked ANY different from the rest was the Lara Croft.
So $5 says they imported Lara Croft from America!
doomcloud @ Aug 28th 2007 11:33AM
ill take booth babes over sacrificial goats anyday

Serious case of way too much naassatol

Agreed, NSFW!!!!! Out of boredom, you'll actually want to go and get some real work done.
Funkula @ Aug 28th 2007 11:43AM
The booth babes didnt seem that "outrageous" , I expected more of those freaky body painted alien what-ever-they-were . I mean, its Germany, they are...strange people.
Lucky @ Aug 28th 2007 11:43AM
In germany in general they don't care about nudity. I saw a 80 year old man showing off his wrinkled wang. Nasty shit.
Anticrawl @ Aug 28th 2007 11:59AM
Now that's a wave of advertisment that's easy on the eyes.
On to the real matter at hand, it seems Germany is still going through that phase where they envision the perfect woman skinny and fence-board-like. I'm glad the US is moving away from that, not attractive at all. That said the girl with a pony tail and green paint posing was hot.
zero2dash @ Aug 28th 2007 12:21PM
The Sapphire rep was the only good looking one IMO.
EA rep a 2nd.
The rest I could've done without the re-re-re-replaying of the same footage over and over.
