Default Okay, I was cool with Cooking Mama, but....


....somehow when you put these two games in context of the other, it nags at me. Is it just me?

Oh well, I'm off to play Cat Feeding Spinster Aunt!

I've already reserved a copy of Creepy Uncle.

Of course, some people saw the implications of Cooking Mama even before Science Papa was announced.

Oooh, Creepy Uncle rocks! The specialized latex sleeve for the wiimote... genius.

And, yeah, I saw the implication before, and sure, they could have done a 'chef' story without gendering it, but I was willing to forgive it. Not really sure why.

Bite your tongue damn you! After doing a game about a woman who cooks, isn't it logical and progressive to do one about the husband who is the brains AND the bread winner?

You'll notice the publishers are different- Activision is being just a little dodgy here.

Hey, now! Cooking requires brains, and can be profitable!

But why not a game about her wife? Ad Exec Lesbian, why have they never made you?

Yeah, I noticed that. Basically, it seems a rip off gameplay-wise.

Cooking is like science, just with smaller explosions.

Well that'd certainly be ONE way to make her, although drinks and dinner might work, too...

A hot dog, a taco, lasagna and sushi? That's one odd combo plate. Maybe they should re-title that game Pregnancy Mama.

I'd quite happily eat the first three together but not sushi!

Anything with fish in it totally freaks me out. Yuk!
