EB Games Expo 2011: The booth babes photo

On some levels, I don't really understand why booth babes exist. Sure, I get the whole 'sex sells' angle but I'm positive if I ever spoke to a booth babe, she probably wouldn't be able to tell me just how many Dark Brotherhood quests I can undertake in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (not that Skyrim had booth babes, but you get the point.)

Now, obviously Saints Row The Third had booth babes at the EB Games Expo because hey, that's how Saints Row rolls. And Need For Speed: the Run has grid girls because...well, I don't know why. But the frantic, visceral experience of Battlefield 3 doesn't immediately cause me to imagine women with less than 50% of their clothes on. I could be playing it wrong, I guess. The guys from DICE sure didn't mention any unlockable mode where scantily-clad females suddenly emerge from the war-torn buildings of Afghanistan. Hmm, perhaps I'm reading too much into this.

Anyway, here you go.

As a long-time convention enthusiast, I'm noting that more and more places are employing people that at least know what they're talking about. Sponsored female gamers are high in demand as they new 'booth babe'.

The thing I don't get is why we as gamers stereotype boothbabes? I am sure there are plenty who don't know alot about games but there are always those that do...

If we see a pretty girl working there and assume they don't know anything about games what makes us better then those who automatically assume we dont know how to talk to girls? Honestly I actually know some girls who take jobs as a model for events they like to play games and know their stuff.

They might be hired to look pretty but to just assume all of them don't know anything about games doesn't say alot about us as gamers.

I preferred Eurogamer Expo's SR3 booth babes.
They were pretty cute.

Man, some of you guys are shallow. Plus you're forgetting that the Australian accent automatically improves sexiness by 28% in person.

:P

@ CeliacCrazed. I'm an Aussie. Considering this event is staged near the sun kissed beaches of the Gold Coast, they could have hired some better looking talent.

I would prefer some really cute natural looking girls as booth babes.

These girls spend about 16 hours a day trying to refine their look, and sadly still don't get it right. Trying too hard. Also, boobs that the girl had to buy aren't as good as the real deal. And if they keep tanning like that, they are going to become old leather by the time they hit 30.
