Hypermasculinity is defined as the exaggeration of male stereotypical behaviour, such as an emphasis on physical strength, aggression, and sexuality.
The Melting Pot discuss, in glorious audio format, whether or not Video Games do contribute to the stereotype in terms of both physical appearance and personality traits.
Regarding physical appearance, we split video game characters into four categories: the IBFF Pro Bodybuilder, Fitness Model, In-shape Guy and Non-Fitness Guy in order to assess whether there is a spectrum of body types in Video games and the results may surprise you.
Similar to our episode on hypersexuality, we muse on whether the physiques of these characters, which range from Zangief (Street Fighter) and Marcus Phoenix (Gears of War) to Zeke (Infamous) and the Meat King (Hitman Contracts), fit the roles they play in their respective games?
In terms of the psychological side of hypermasculinity, are the traits of men showing no weakness, displaying no feelings and lacking any vulnerability the norm epitomized by characters such as Duke Nukem or Kratos (God of War) the norm? Or, are they adequately counterbalanced by protagonists like Joel (Last of Us) or Ethan Mars (Heavy Rain)?
Hit that play button to discover the answers to all of these questions.

We also discuss the divisive decision by the BAFTA panel to hand the Game of the Year Award to Bethesda’s Fallout 4.
It is vital that award ceremonies such as this take place for a number of reasons but primarily for the Video Games industry, which is larger than TV and Film, and needs to be given the rightful recognition it deserves.

In episode 4 The Melting Pot discuss their recent trip to Birmingham’s edition of Nerdvana and how pleasantly surprised they were that Comic Book creators took the issue of diversity very seriously.
In the Comic Book Village section of Comic-Con you can find the works of independent artists ranging from a harrowing horror comic involving archaeologists uncovering demonic hell beasts in their excavations to illustrations of hypersexualised males and females covering their nether regions with cacti.
The Melting Pot trio of Amo, Fatima and Thomas spent most of their Con chatting to these independent creators about their work, whether they treat the issue of diversity as a precursor or an afterthought.
Comic-Con, for the uninitiated, is where those invested in the world of Nerd Culture come together to celebrate Comic Books, Anime, Manga, Video Games, films and Sci-fi.
Waves of Gokus, Deapools and Spider-Men can be seen perusing the stalls for nerdy swag, participating in competitive Video Game competitions (eSports), getting an autograph from a sci-fi legend or attending a panel of artists, actors or content creators.

The group has been active since 2010 and it has been reported that they number in the region of 270,000.
The women wear pink saris symbolizing strength and carry bamboo sticks that can be used as weapons!

The third episode of the DESIblitz.com - The Melting Pot!
In this episode, Amo, Fatima and Thomas tackle the very serious issue of gender in gaming.
In the games themselves we talk about whether or not there are a lack of female protagonists, are female characters hypersexualised and how NPC's are portrayed.
Whereas, outside of games we discuss the harassment female gamers receive online as well as the adversity faced by those who work within the industry.
Also, Thomas comes up with great idea for the Brown Narrative. Drawing on inspiration from rickshaw runs, Oregan trail and 80 Days you set off on a cross-country journey through India with only a few rupees and a rickety rickshaw.
The gender and race of your character would affect the narrative and difficulty of your adventure.

The second episode of the DESIblitz.com - The Melting Pot!
Amo, Fatima and Tom talk about the lack of South Asian characters in video games....
A three dimensional South Asian Video Game character is about as rare as seeing a unicorn riding a shooting star towards a Wendigo who was doing battle with a shiny Mewtwo.
It is startling that the DESIblitz gaming writers could only come up with five South Asian Video Game characters of any note; a statistic that needs to change in the near future.
Furthermore, Fatima comes up with the idea of having a Grand Theft Auto game set in India for the Brown Narrative segment.
