Why do you think that they don't sell womens game on PS2 etc.?

Answer 1

nobodys stopping women from playing video games their not intended for only males their intended to make companys money

Answer 2

Well, what do you mean by "womens games"? If you mean like games where you go to the mall and shop for cosmetic supplies, that would be kind of lame. But any ways, I think that the reason why they don't make games for women is primarily because the guys making all the games know that the majority of people that play games are guys.

Answer 3

Womens' games? I'm a girl and I've found plenty of games to play, even if you don't want to just run around and kill things. Even then, there are games with women as the main characters. Primarily men play games, primarily men develop games, but that doesn't mean there aren't games for us to play. I just read an article a few days ago that said women who play video games have more sex, so there's that. XD

Answer 4

Generally video games are more geared towards males, but I find myself enjoying tons of video games that arent necessarily for women. I enjoy the PS2 game Guitar Hero that almost every girl I have showed it to loves. Also, Sims is fun.

Answer 5

While most of the answers on here are sarcastic and sexist, they do make a few good points. Nobody is stopping women from playing any of the games available, and I'm sure there are plenty of women out there who enjoy a good shooter or racing game. That said, the reason companies tend not to make "girl" games is as stated, though perhaps less condescending than some of the people said it. They just don't sell all that well, including to girls. Games like Crystal's pony tales on the genesis just didn't sell as well as more neutral ones like sonic, or more guy oriented ones such as mortal kombat. The same is still true. And while it seems mean to suggest that girls are more suited to them, there are plenty of what have been termed "non-games" that everyone can enjoy, such as rythm games like Guitar Hero and Amplitude, and puzzle games like tetris and so on. RPGs may appeal to you as well, if you've got a desire for a good story, and there are puzzle mystery games out there, such as hotel dusk and trace memory on the DS, though specific titles on ps2 aren't coming to ,ind. Anyway, yeah, hopefully that was worth a read.

Answer 6

They tried that before on old systems. They'd have Barbie games and stuff like that, that was aimed towards girls, but they all flopped because no-one would buy them.

Games have huge development budgets now. 98% of hardcore gamers are men, and 98% of people who want to design and develop games are men. Given that, software developers would be stupid to try and market to women.

Also, I thought The Sims would be a good game for women. Men play it, but I think women would like it just as much. Have you played that?

Answer 7

They do sell some, but maybe b/c boys buy more games & use PS2 more than girls do typically.

Answer 8

Basically I think that women are way too busy to sit and play computer games for hours and hours. Also, most of the games are to violent. If they made really intelligent and thoughtful games, women might be more apt to play

Answer 9

There isn't much of a female market in the video game industry.
But there are some games,
such as
"Let's Bake Cookies For the Boys"
"Grocery shopping 101"
"Vacuum The Termites From My Husband's Scalp" and
"Nag Your Man to Death."
