Episode 7 - Role Player Sharon: I'll play them all

WELCOME TO EPISODE 7 OF GAME ON GIRL!

This week we talk to the most elusive of the player types: the Role Player. Sharon is one of the original participants in my research and I was delighted that we got a chance to talk again. She shares many insights into the culture of Role Playing in MMORPGs, both in current games like Star Wars: The Old Republic and older games like Star Wars: Galaxies and Necron. Take a listen and let us know what you think! Are you going to try some role playing now?  I am already thinking up backstory ideas for a new character. We'd love to have another show about role players and role playing communities! If this is you, send us an email at regina@game-on-girl.com or leave a note in the comments!

GoG Short #2 - Killing Female NPCs?

Mindbender Ghur'sha - Thone of Tides - World of Warcraft Have you ever hesitated before you attacked an NPC? What were the circumstances? What kind of character or game mechanic made you hesitate? And why? Tell us what you think in the comments! Until next time, Game On! Regina & Rhonda

Episode 6 - Trans-Identity in Game: A welcoming community

Hello Everyone and Thank You for Checking out Episode Six of Game on Girl!

I am very excited about this week's guest, Michele, because her interview marks a further step in expanding and embracing of the ideas in my research. Michele is a male to female transsexual and in this episode she discusses her experiences and how her gaming changed throughout her own transition. If you'd like to read more about Michele, check out her blog and follow her on Twitter. If you have question about what it means to be trans, check out a website recommended by Michele - Transsexual Road Map or take a look at True Selves: Understanding Transsexualism by Mildred Brown.
