L337Lauren tops other gals on road to Miss Video Game crown

We know what you're thinking, because we're thinking the same thing. There's a Miss Video Game competition? How did such a thing fly under our collective radar? The event, part of the larger 2007 Arcadia Festival in Montreal, aims to find and award one female as this year's most accomplished gamer without a Y chromosome, and who better suited for this task than our neighbors to the north?

After the first day of events, the pack is currently led by EB Games assistant manager Lauren Berggren, aka L337Lauren, as she bested the other girls in both Mario Kart 64 and a series of 1-on-1 matches in CounterStrike. Now she and four others move on to fight for the crown while rocking out to Guitar Hero and testing their noodles in Brain Age 2.

Impressive, sure, but like female-only gaming clans, this sort of thing strikes us as odd, especially since video games, unlike sporting events or beauty pageants, don't favor skills unique to either sex. Still, playing games is seen by some as a bit of a boy's club, and something like this could possibly help break down a few stereotypes, which is a positive, though being the lecherous types we are we can't help but hope for a swimsuit or evening gown competition to follow.

Hey I think that's cool. Girls don't get enough credit for being able to play a video game.

Probably. LOL But seriously, that can be applied anywhere. Like if I say that movie stars are hot it could be true in general, but then you could ask about that fat ass chick that looks like a walrus that they zoom in on her ass in SuperSize Me. LMAO

I think she looked better in the first pic. She still looks good in the others though. But I looked at the first link, and noticed that she uses Windows. :/
