Next Generation has released a list of their picks for the Top 100 Hot Developers. So naturally, we went on over, eager to feast our eyeballs on the luscious babes of gaming, perhaps dressed in bikinis leaned over a computer, pouring champagne on their glistening rumps. One thing's for sure: when you start promising the top 100 hottest anything, we expect to see some scantly clad babes.
So you can imagine our consternation when we discovered that Next Generation's article really ought to be titled "Homoeroticism's Top 100 Hot Developers." There's not a chick on the list! Worse yet, it's filled with pictures of pasty dorks like John Carmack and hirsute yetis like Raph Koster! Although I suppose we can all be thankful none of them deigned to pose in a bikini.
According to Next Gen, this was their judging criterion:
We selected the Hot 100, based primarily on their studio s market success in 2005. In addition, we kept in mind any potential huge successes for 2006, as well as people who are clearly industry luminaries regardless of their recent or upcoming projects.
Boo, Next Generation. Boo!
