"Although violent video games appeal primarily to boys, the record contains, surprisingly, a feminist violent video game, 'Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3.' A man and a woman are dressed in vaguely medieval costumes, and wield huge swords. The woman is very tall, very fierce, and wields her sword effortlessly. The man and the woman duel, and the man is killed. Another man appears--he is killed too. The woman wins all the duels. She is as strong as the men, she is more skillful, more determined, and she does not flinch at the sight of blood. Of course, her success depends on the player's skill, and the fact that the player, whether male or female, has chosen to be the female fighter. (The player chooses which fighter to be.) But the game is feminist in depicting a woman as fully capable of holding her own in violent combat with heavily armed men. It thus has a message, even an 'ideology,' just as books and movies do."
American Amusement Machine Ass'n v. Kendrick, 244 F.3d 572, 578 (7th Cir. 2001) (Posner, J.).
