quote
  • Gary Goldman watched with amusement as one player/performer in a Los Angeles arcade got the crowd excited when he made it all the way to the lair of the dragon. As Princess Daphne seductively urged the player to save her, he dropped to the ground, did a 360-degree Michael Jackson-style spin, jumped up and waved his arms like a magician before hitting the game button. "Look at that chick", he yelled as the audience clapped in approval. Such a response to the princess has earned Bluth some flak about the sexist nature of video games but he insists that the characters were developed with a tongue-in-cheek attitude and an eye for comic effect. He also points out that the princess has not kept female players away from Dragon's Lair and in one Denver tournament, three women tied with three men in competition on the game. While he makes no promises, Bluth hints that female characters may be more liberated in future games. (en)
