So much of the technology market is aimed at men, whereas we all know that at least half the tech being bought these days is going to be owned/used/operated/upgraded by ladies.
KitGuru loaded up the Digital SLR at Multiplay’s i43 event and went in search of the human side of female gaming.
.
.
More girls attended i43 than almost any previous UK LAN event. Unfortunately, they were still outnumbered by the blokes – but it’s great to see an increase in competition among the ladies. At the same time, we also smiled long and hard at stands where the women were very much in charge (Kick, you know who we mean).
Here’s a selection of our favourites:-
.

The Kick lady loved nothing better than giving pasty young boys a good hard bucking with her evil torture device

Lady heroes from the Anthony Nolan Register stand. So? Have you registered yet? Come on - lives depend on this!
.

Not sure about the axe goddess, but the girl on the drums looks a lot like Nick Haywood. Shirley not.
.KitGuru says: Everyone we know agrees that technology and gaming needs to become much more accessible to the ladies – and we’re here to do our bit. Any suggestions you might have should be deposited into the KitGuru forums or in the comments section below.
Girls in charge - if Carlsberg made gamers,

Haha, great article, although calling me a guru may be going a little far!
The event was excellent, the new venue far superior to the past 2 – loved it! Shame we didn’t do as well in the tourney as we have in the past – I blame the proximity of alcohol!!!
Hoping next event to see more ladies COMPETING!

Went to a game centre years ago and it was rank, full of smelly blokes. Wouldn’t go back. Online rocks because it’s a level playing field. After seeing the videos on i43 I might look at i44, but I’d need my crew with me!
