EA being sexist or is it just me?

This

is a US advert for Dead Space 2 which is coming out soon.

It's really annoyed me on many levels, first off it's extremely childish and one must ask the question why use the tag "your mum is going hate it" when it is an 18 rated game.

secondly it's the games industry themselves so long trying to be taken seriously now pandering into the childish image of gaming being for kids and disapproving mothers who don't understand games/technology.

and thirdly it's sexist, I was interested in getting Dead Space 2 but as a mother I don't think I'll bother now as I'm spost to hate it.

Just wondered what the rest of you think of it?

I think you should write to them to tell them that....you were going to buy it but thanks to their excellent marketing you have now realised you're actually supposed to hate it....so you will pass the word on.
