I thought the gaming world was over the sexist thing; apparently I was wrong
I'd hate to tell her that the gaming world still isn't entirely over it 25 years later

Was this in Pelit or Mikrobitti? There was something else too wasnt there
dont remember though
I assume Pelit- this would've been in the mid 2000s before the Xbox 360 hit the scene since I had mostly stopped reading print gaming media by then
I think there was also Pelaaja (?) but it just wasn't as good as Pelit
You don't truly grow up until you realize Pelit was never actually that good.
What do you mean? I remember one issue having a comic strip where the main character went out and killed every Finland Swedish person with a katana because he misunderstood a quest in an RPG or something
Incredible comedy
No, I really like reading ”everything except the stuff I like is bad and for children” columns from a condescending boomer chud for 30+ years.
If I ever come across old issues of Pelit in my parents' house or something I'll have to see just how awful their takes and politics are to my adult brain
Honestly, all the really bad takes were on their forum, where they were assumedly free of the shackles of any journalistic pretense
That forum was where I found out about 9/11 was happening, though.
I can't even imagine how bad those forums must have been, especially if they had been around for that long
my brother used to have subscription to it in the 90s and I read all of those so many times, just marveling at the pretty pictures. They would probably not hold up very well if I actually read them today.
I seem to recall they were at least not as cringy/horny as many other gaming magazines
Though the 90s cringe is what makes browsing these OPM issues on the Internet Archive so fun
