Free Realms has just gone live, and if you are not aware, it is a free to play MMO from Sony. As is becoming more and more popular it is based on the model that you can play all you want for free, but if you want certain game items and various other things you have to pay for them. This is one of the biggest releases yet to try this model and according to the GWJ crew it is surprisingly good.
The big segment this week is a sit down talk with Jerry “Tycho” Holkins of Penny Arcade. Cory had a chance to grab Tycho for a while and they, for the most part, just talk games. The topics range from free-to-play games that have become prevalent recently to pen and paper RPGs and collectible card games. It’s an informal and fun interview.
The guys take some time at the end to answer some emails and touch on the on a few topics including what they consider to be a success in video game stories.
This week, Penny Arcade’s Jerry “Tycho” Holkins sits down with Cory for some coffee and conversation about a wide range of gaming topics. Sean Sands also reveals his deep shame and offers you a way to benefit from it in the form of a new contest!
