This week's Gaming Podcast covers a wide variety of news, we also argue a bit about the World of Warcraft restrictions on taking donations and cash (again) and touch on some gaming history involving The Sims and the history of Infocom. For news, they've tackled:
* EA Leaves SecuRom out of Sims 3
* Sony Enticing Independent Developers to be Exclusive to PlayStation Network
* Steam Makes DRM Obsolete
* Blizzard Rolling Out New Game Franchise?
* OnLive to Kill off Consoles as we know them?
* PS3 Rumors and Price Drops
This week's question, is the Nintendo Wii killing off gaming as we know it?
Blizzard Entertainment has announced the opening of beta registrations for “World of Warcraft: The War Within,” inviting players to explore new subterranean worlds beneath Azeroth.
Danish from eXputer: "Despite Blizzard's attempt to give a fresh new spin to World of Warcraft, some fans still seem to be stuck in the past."
HG writes: "Blizzard is usually pretty bad at keeping secrets, but the company somehow managed to keep this one under wraps until now. Plunderstorm is a special limited-time event that’s basically World of Warcraft’s take on the Battle Royale genre."
