		<title>Retro Review: Final Fantasy VI</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By Richard Pilbeam
Final Fantasy VI, Squaresoft, Super Nintendo Entertainment System , 1994
Final Fantasy VI is, as everybody knows, one of the greatest games ever made. Everybody happens to be right for a change, so heaping praise upon the thing is quite magnificently redundant. Amidst this praise, though, precisely why the game was so successful isn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<title>My IRIS Story</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By Olivia Luna
When we asked members of IRIS over on the boards to tell us what the site has meant to them, I started to think back on my time spent here in the past year and what effect it has had on me. I first wandered over to IRIS from a link posted on [...]]]></description>

		<title>How Can Grand Theft Auto Transition from Base Entertainment to Art?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By Latoya Peterson
In Australia, a game called The Coolest Kid in School is being billed as &#8220;Grand Theft Auto for Girls.&#8221; The gameplay revolves around risky teen girl behavior, prompting your in-game doppleganger to take drugs, practice cutting, play around with sex, and &#8220;lie, bitch, flirt your way to the top.&#8221;  After checking out [...]]]></description>

		<title>Wizards of the Coast Noticing Women: A Preview of Gender in D&#038;D 4</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By Robyn Fleming
I’ve been playing Dungeons &#038; Dragons since I was six or seven years old, and have been a feminist for about that long.

		<title>Girls Do Play D&#038;D</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By Karen Healey
When I was a kid, I made up stories for my siblings and the neighbourhood kids we could press-gang into participating by the hour. Let&#8217;s Pretend was by far and away my favourite game, second only to reading as my favourite activity. We hunted down dinosaurs, enthusiastically swung sticks at each other in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By Melissa Velte
Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII, Square Enix, PSP, 2008
After sequels that, while met with a general positive response, did not thrill as the original 1997 Playstation title, Crisis Core brings hope for a game that will finally recapture Final Fantasy VII&#8217;s appeal. This PSP title again takes the series away from turn-based gameplay, [...]]]></description>
