"One thing we found out is that women don't want to be spaceships," said CCP CEO Hilmar Petursson. "I've shown EVE Online videos to lots of girls, and their eyes just glaze over... but I show it to guys and they're like, 'Hell yeah!' Our research in to this, by hiring more girls into CCP and asking them what they want to do, shows that they want to be people. They don't want to be spaceships. For the past two years, we've been adding people into EVE Online. This is something that we plan to release next year."


When I was little, I wanted so bad to be a robot like Lt. Cmdr. Data or the Terminator. All the girls I met just wanted to be mommies or thin or both. Tell me, which of us needs an MMORPG to live out our dreams and which of us is just being lazy? Before you answer, remember that one of the choices is GIRLS.

"It's a side benefit," he said. "I mean, we did not sit down and say, 'How do we get women into EVE?' That's not how it happened."


He talks the talk, but does he walk the walk? In this case the walk involves a donkey punch.
