No Prisoners, No Mercy
There comes a time, friends, when your favorite MMO ceases to sparkle, when even new videogames lose their luster, and the computer room becomes a prison; and all that is left are two gamers (who happen to be nuns) with a very large axe to grind. Come join Julie Whitefeather and Frances Kosac as they discuss the events in the videogame industry.

Welcome to No Prisoners, No Mercy Show 73!

This week we start out with a discussion with our own big news of the week - having breakfast with Martog and Gowron.  Next up is about the big news coming out of Cryptic: Champions Online going free 2 play and Star Trek Online launching player created content!  This week the Pirate Bay made plans to shoot their servers into orbit - But only after failing to purchase the Micronation of Sealand.  This is always something to be Mad-as-hell about and this week it's over Fallout: New Vegas.  In the second half of the show Mr.  Vlad Loscutoff, founder of MobRule Studios, spends some time talking to us about independant game development.

See you online,

Julie and Fran

The sisters call out Chris Columbus for being 500 years late. Sister Julie gives in to that new beta smell. Once again the NPNM team gets MAD AS HELL, and this time takes aim at WoW patch 4.01 - Learning along the way that there IS somewhere to go from bottom. The NPNM team has their own special interpretation of WoW’s massive subscriber base. It turns out that numbers may fib a bit, but never outright lie. The smell you THINK you smell is NOT spoiled dog – it’s a Cataclysm spoiler warning. (To skip Cataclysm Spoilers jump to time 45:48 in the show). On the after show we chat about EQ2 extended changes.

Who’s bad is it? We talk about our Brewfest experience. The sisters get mad as hell about a game that not only scrapes the bottom of the barrel, but is made out of what is underneath the barrel.  We discuss a thorn in our sides that we share with Blizzard’s own lead systems designer Ghostcrawler. Next Mr. Shannon Posniewski, executive producer for Champions Online joins us.  (During the discussion with the Poz we had to call him back and we reached a pizza parlor…or so we thought).  After the show we will have a short chat session about EQ2.
