I don't think so. I don't get why people are so worked up about these photos.

Im not convinced these are real gamer girls, in fact, real gamer girls would never post videos to youtube or pictures of themselves on the internet!

Bah, people just need to learn to be offended... within reason of course. (I still haven't totally learned it.)

The sheer volume of eyeshadow is enough to make them controversial.

o_o If this is controversial, people need to find something else to do with their time. So they're making asses of themselves. That happens daily on the internet.

The photos themselves aren't controversial....except for maybe the overuse of eyeliner.

Nah, you want real controversy? A picture of me gaming while wearing an anti-Obama shirt.

THAT would get the hatemail flying...
