THQ: ‘Girls have better things to do than videogames’

Recommended Videos

James Scalpello, THQ’s wireless director, has humorously stated that girls simply have more important things to do with their time than play games. Statistically, he ain’t wrong, but you’ve got to love the bluntness of it all.

“When girls play console games, they have to have gone through a whole other list of things they could have done before sitting down with them,” stated James, before screaming at his wife to get dinner on the f*cking table. “Guys get home, have dinner, and play a computer game. It’s much higher up the list of priorities. To put it bluntly, girls have got better things to do.”

Apparently, the original quotes of Scalpello have been changed up, but CVG recorded them for posterity. Scalpello is also yet to confirm what the “more important things” are that women have to do, but we’re expecting him to list shopping for drapes, getting pregnant and ruining the lives of honest, hard working men.

Because we have decided he is a total sexist.
