Crazy? Yes. Cool? Of Course! Gay? I dont think so.
I mean, if he asked for a deep kiss from Tingle or that little teletubby guy I would agree on the gayness. But all im seeing are celebratory pelvic thrusts.
Did you see how fast be built that bridge? Thats a hardcore dude.

@ CJC
Sorry, gaymer here and I'm not sold. :D
It was like having Makoto in Enchanted Arms on the Xbox 360. Gay games doesn't garner my money, unless they are worth it in the end!

You straight people have such a screwed up and deranged interpretation of a homosexual (I blame hollywood and the mass media).

I had my hopes, but this seals it up: This game will NOT come out in the USA, at least not with the gay bridge guy. Jerry Falwell will piss a kitten if he sees this game in the hands of american children.

Hard Gay (and the pseudo-HG) is in no way representative of any gay person, ever. What he is is a hilariously eccentric character who mixes gay stereotypes with a huge helping of bizarre idiosyncracies. Hard Gay is wonderful.
So is Tingle.

What do you guys think? Will this come out in America? Or is it just way to out there to make it to the Land Of Bush?

Adam,
We will do everything in our power to ensure this game gets localized once the Joystiq guys let us out of our cage. They have to soon, our newspaper hasn't been changed in weeks.
Thanks for reading!
Dave

Well considering homosexuality in the human species is not a natural contributor to the continuation of the species ( i.e gays cannot reproduce together) I would say most people's ideas on gays are warranted considering it is unnatural.

Though such lifestyles conflict with my beliefs, I am in no place to judge others that don't believe as I do. I show love and kindness to all, no matter which team they play on.
But for crying out loud, why does this game have to make it so in-your-face! Tingle is one thing. Yes, he is a stereotypical homosexual fairy-boy, but can't the rest of the game just play like a normal Zelda adventure? Do they have to force such material at you in large amounts?
And this is not just because of the extreme homosexual overtones, but flooding any game with one character-type seems unsuitable for the average gamer. This is one case where there needs to be diversity by adding some STRAIGHT characters. I don't know if the whole game will end up this way, but when a character as insignificant as a bridge builder exhibits such actions, it's all but certain.
I just wouldn't feel comfortable playing such a game, but that's just me. Anyhoo, peace.
